The transport of l-leucine, l-phenylalanine and l-alanine by the perfused lactating rat mammary gland has been examined using a rapid, paired-tracer dilution technique. The clearances of all three amino acids by the mammary gland consisted of a rising phase followed by a rapid fall-off, respectively, reflecting influx and efflux of the radiotracers. The peak clearance of l-leucine was inhibited by BCH (65%) and d-leucine (58%) but not by l-proline. The inhibition of l-leucine clearance by BCH and d-leucine was not additive. l-leucine inhibited the peak clearance of radiolabelled l-leucine by 78%. BCH also inhibited the peak clearance of l-phenylalanine (66%) and l-alanine (33%) by the perfused mammary gland. Lactating rat mammary tissue was found to express both LAT1 and LAT2 mRNA. The results suggest that system L is situated in the basolateral aspect of the lactating rat mammary epithelium and thus probably plays a central role in neutral amino acid uptake from blood. The finding that l-alanine uptake by the gland was inhibited by BCH suggests that LAT2 may make a significant contribution to neutral amino acid uptake by the mammary epithelium. 相似文献

Both carbohydrate monomers l-gulose and l-galactose are rarely found in nature, but are of great importance in pharmacy R&D and manufacturing. A method for the production of l-gulose and l-galactose is described that utilizes recombinant Escherichia coli harboring a unique mannitol dehydrogenase. The recombinant E. coli system was optimized by genetic manipulation and directed evolution of the recombinant protein to improve conversion. The resulting production process requires a single step, represents the first readily scalable system for the production of these sugars, is environmentally friendly, and utilizes inexpensive reagents, while producing l-galactose at 4.6 g L−1 d−1 and l-gulose at 0.90 g L−1 d−1. 相似文献

Five sulfonium ion derivatives with 1,5-anhydro-5-thio-L-fucitol as a core structure were efficiently synthesized as potential alpha-L-fucosidase inhibitors. The key unit, the tri-O-benzyl derivative of L-fucitol, was readily synthesized from methyl alpha-D-mannopyranoside. Alkylation with methyl iodide or 5-methoxycarbonyl-1-pentyl iodide in acetonitrile containing AgBF4 afforded the corresponding alkylated sulfonium tetrafluoroborates. Alternatively, ring opening of three 1,3-cyclic sulfates in 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) containing K2CO3 afforded the corresponding zwitterionic sulfonium sulfates. 相似文献

A series of O-alkyl derivatives of cyclodextrin: heksakis[2,3,6-tri-O-(2′-methoxyethyl)]-α-cyclodextrin; heksakis(2,3-di-O-methyl)-α-cyclodextrin; heptakis(2,3-di-O-methyl)-β-cyclodextrin; heksakis[2,3-di-O-methyl-6-O-(2′-methoxyethyl)]-α-cyclodextrin; heptakis[2,3-di-O-methyl-6-O-(2′-methoxyethyl)]-β-cyclodextrin; heksakis[2,3-di-O-(2′-methoxyethyl)]-α-cyclodextrin and heptakis[2,3-di-O-(2′-methoxyethyl)]-β-cyclodextrin have been synthesized. Purity and composition of the obtained substances were examined. The cyclodextrin derivatives listed above as well as (2-hydroxypropyl)-α-cyclodextrin and (2-hydroxypropyl)-β-cyclodextrin, the two commercially available ones, have been investigated as the additives in the course of enzymatic decomposition of l-tryptophan by l-tryptophan indole-lyase. It has been found that each of cyclodextrin derivatives causes the inhibition of enzymatic process, both competitive and non-competitive. The competitive inhibition is connected with the formation of inclusion complexes between cyclodextrins and l-tryptophan, related to the geometry of these complexes. The mechanism of the non-competitive inhibition is not so evident; it could be related to the formation of the cyclodextrin complexes on the surface of the enzyme, leading to the change in the flexibility of the enzyme molecule. 相似文献

Methyl 1,2,4-tri-O-acetyl-3-O-benzyl-L-idopyranuronate 6beta/6alpha, prepared from methyl 3-O-benzyl-L-iduronate (4), is a key synthon in heparin/heparan sulfate synthesis. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of the furanose-pyranose mixture of 4, after dissolution and equilibration in d(4)-methanol, were fully assigned allowing to expect that 4 could crystallise in the beta-pyranose form. New acetylation conditions able to trap this form were subsequently devised, allowing the isolation of 83% of pure 6beta by simple crystallisation, along with 9% of the 6beta/6alpha mixture. This represents a major advantage over the previously published procedure, especially on multigram scales. 相似文献

1,6-Diamino-1,6-dideoxy-2,3,4,5-tetra-O-methyl-D-mannitol (and its L-iditol analogue) suitable for their utilization as monomers in the preparation of linear polyamides are described. Regio- and stereoregular polyamides of the AABB-type have been prepared by the active ester polycondensation method from these C(2) symmetric monomers and suberic and dodecanedioic acids. The resulting polyamides were obtained in fair yields (70-60%) and were characterized by elemental analyses and infrared and 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopies. Their M(w) and M(w)/M(n) were determined by GPC relative to polystyrene standards. All of them were gummy non-crystalline solids. 相似文献

In order to ascertain whether and how mitochondria can produce hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as a result of l-lactate addition, we monitored H2O2 generation in rat liver mitochondria and in submitochondrial fractions free of peroxisomal and cytosolic contamination. We found that H2O2 is produced independently on the respiratory chain with 1:1 stoichiometry with pyruvate, due to a putative flavine-dependent l-lactate oxidase restricted to the intermembrane space. The l-lactate oxidase reaction shows a hyperbolic dependence on l-lactate concentration and is inhibited by NAD+ in a competitive manner, being the enzyme different from the l-lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes as shown by their pH profiles. 相似文献

dTDP-l-rhamnose (dTDP-Rha)-synthesizing dTDP-6-deoxy-l-lyxo-4-hexulose reductase (4-KR) and dTDP-Rha 4-epimerase were characterized from Burkholderia thailandensis E264 by utilizing rmlDBth (BTH_I1472) and wbiBBth (BTH_I1476), respectively. Incubation of the recombinant WbiBBth with RmlA/RmlB/RmlC/Tal, which has previously been shown to generate dTDP-6-deoxy-l-talose (dTDP-6dTal) from α-d-glucose-1-phosphate, dTTP, and NADPH, produced dTDP-Rha. 1H NMR measurements confirmed that both RmlA/RmlB/RmlC/Tal/WbiBBth and RmlA/RmlB/RmlC/RmlD produced dTDP-Rha. WbiBBth alone produced dTDP-Rha when incubated with dTDP-6dTal. This is the first report to demonstrate epimerase activity interconverting between dTDP-Rha and dTDP-6dTal. 相似文献

ABSTRACTAn N-lauroyl-l-phenylalanine-producing bacterium, identified as Burkholderia sp. strain LP5_18B, was isolated from a soil sample. The enzyme was purified from the cell-free extract of the strain and shown to catalyze degradation and synthesis activities toward various N-acyl-amino acids. N-lauroyl-l-phenylalanine and N-lauroyl-l-arginine were obtained with especially high yields (51% and 89%, respectively) from lauric acid and l-phenylalanine or l-arginine by the purified enzyme in an aqueous system. The gene encoding the novel aminoacylase was cloned from Burkholderia sp. strain LP5_18B and expressed in Escherichia coli. The gene contains an open reading frame of 1,323 nucleotides. The deduced protein sequence encoded by the gene has approximately 80% amino acid identity to several hydratase of Burkholderia. The addition of zinc sulfate increased the aminoacylase activity of the recombinant E. coli strain. 相似文献

The optimum conditions for the production of l-arabinose from debranched arabinan were determined to be pH 6.5, 75 °C, 20 g l−1 debranched arabinan, 42 U ml−1 endo-1,5-α-l-arabinanase, and 14 U ml−1 α-l-arabinofuranosidase from Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus and the conditions for sugar beet arabinan were pH 6.0, 75 °C, 20 g l−1 sugar beet arabinan, 3 U ml−1 endo-1,5-α-l-arabinanase, and 24 U ml−1 α-l-arabinofuranosidase. Under the optimum conditions, 16 g l−1l-arabinose was obtained from 20 g l−1 debranched arabinan or sugar beet arabinan after 120 min, with a hydrolysis yield of 80% and a productivity of 8 g l−1 h−1. This is the first reported trial for the production of l-arabinose from the hemicellulose arabinan by the combined use of endo- and exo-arabinanases. 相似文献

Four novel disaccharides of glycosylated 1,5-anhydro-d-ketoses have been prepared: 1,5-anhydro-4-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-d-fructose, 1,5-anhydro-4-O-β-d-galactopyranosyl-d-fructose, 1,5-anhydro-4-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-d-tagatose, and 1,5-anhydro-4-O-β-d-galactopyranosyl-d-tagatose. The common intermediate, 1,5-anhydro-2,3-O-isopropylidene-β-d-fructopyranose, was prepared from d-fructose and was converted into the d-tagatose derivative by oxidation followed by stereoselective reduction to the 4-epimer. The anhydroketoses thus prepared were glycosylated and deprotected to give the disaccharides. 相似文献

Kitasatospora kifunensis, the talosin producer, was used as a source for the dTDP-6-deoxy-l-talose (dTDP-6dTal) biosynthetic gene cluster, serving as a template for four recombinant proteins of RmlAKkf, RmlBKkf, RmlCKkf, and Tal, which complete the biosynthesis of dTDP-6dTal from dTTP, α-d-glucose-1-phosphate, and NAD(P)H. The identity of dTDP-6dTal was validated using 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. K. kifunensistal and tll, the known dTDP-6dTal synthase gene of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans origin, have low sequence similarity and are distantly related within the NDP-6-deoxy-4-ketohexose reductase family, providing an example of the genetic diversity within the dTDP-6dTal biosynthetic pathway. 相似文献

Glycosidation of 2,5-anhydro-1,6-di-O-benzoyl-D-mannitol with methyl(2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-alpha-d-glucopyranosyl-1-O-trichloroacetimidate)uronate in the presence of trimethylsilyl triflate afforded the corresponding 3-O-beta-glycoside, which after deprotection was converted into its hexa-O-sulfate with DMF x SO3 to give after treatment with sodium acetate and subsequent saponification of the methyl ester with sodium hydroxide the hepta sodium salt of 2,5-anhydro-3-O-(beta-d-glucopyranosyl uronate)-D-mannitol hexa-O-sulfate. Glycosidation of the same acceptor with the alpha-thiophenylglycoside of methyl 2,4-di-O-acetyl-3-O-benzyl-L-idopyranosyl uronate in the presence of NIS/TfOH afforded the corresponding 3-O-alpha-glycoside in very low yield, therefore the alpha-thiophenylglycoside of 2-O-acetyl-2,4-O-benzylidene-3-O-benzyl-L-idopyranose was used as donor. The terminal hydroxymethyl group of the obtained disaccharide was subsequently oxidised with NaOCl/TEMPO and the obtained iduronic acid derivative was converted into the hepta sodium salt of 2,5-anhydro-3-O-(-alpha-L-idopyranosyluronate)-D-mannitol hexa-O-sulfonate with DMF x SO3 and subsequent treatment with sodium acetate. 相似文献

Dielectric relaxation measurements were performed on two enantiomers, d- and l-arabinose and their equimolar mixture, and compared to dielectric data obtained for d-ribose. d-Arabinose differs from d-ribose by having the opposite configuration at C2. This study reveals that both d- and l- of arabinose exhibit α-relaxation peaks with the same shape for the same α-relaxation time τα, and the same steepness index for the Tg-scale T-dependence of τα. However, the two isomers have slightly different glass transition temperatures Tg’s, and their secondary γ-relaxation times also differ slightly from the previously observed γ-relaxation in d-ribose at the same temperature. However, when samples of both investigated monosaccharides are annealed at higher temperatures, their glass transition temperatures become nearly identical. This is an effect of the mutarotation process, which leads to the formation of pairs of the enantiomers and accordingly they should have the same physical properties. The width of the α-relaxation of d- and l-arabinose is broader than that of d-ribose, as reflected by the smaller stretch exponent in the Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts function used to fit the data of the former (βKWW = 0.46 ± 0.01) than the latter (βKWW = 0.55 ± 0.01). The width of the α-relaxation of racemic mixture of the d- and l-arabinose is slightly broader than that of the pure isomers. While the dielectric loss data of d-ribose in the glassy state at ambient and elevated pressures show an inflexion indicating the presence of the JG β-relaxation, the data of d- and l-arabinose show no such feature for identification of the supposedly universal JG β-relaxation. Nevertheless, on comparing the loss spectra of d-arabinose with that of d-ribose, the presence of the JG β-relaxation in d-arabinose has been rationalized. 相似文献

A novel method is reported for preparing methyl 6-deoxy-3-O-methyl-alpha-L-mannopyranoside (1) by asymmetric synthesis, using 2-acetylfuran (2), a non-chiral simple molecule, as the starting material and achieving high yields via (S)-1-(2-furyl)ethanol and (S)-1-(2,5-dihydro-2,5-dimethoxy-2-furyl)ethanol. 相似文献

The enzymatic characterization of GDP-d-mannose 3',5'-epimerase (GME), a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of vitamin C in plants is described. The GME gene (Genbank Accession No. AB193582) in rice was cloned, and expressed as a fusion protein in Escherichia coli. Reaction products from GDP-d-mannose, as produced by GME catalysis, were separated by recycling HPLC on an ODS column, and were determined to be GDP-l-galactose and GDP-l-gulose, based on their NMR spectra and sugar analysis. The reaction catalyzed by GME was inhibited by GDP, and was strongly accelerated by NAD(+) in contrast to the case of GME from Arabidopsis thaliana. This difference in the effect of NAD(+) on GME activity can be attributed to the NAD binding domain which is conserved in the rice gene, but not in the Arabidopsis thaliana gene. The apparent K(m) and k(cat) were determined to be 1.20x10(-5)M and 0.127s(-1), respectively, in the presence of 20microM NAD(+). The fractions of GDP-d-mannose, GDP-l-galactose and GDP-l-gulose, at equilibrium, were approximately 0.75, 0.20 and 0.05, respectively. 相似文献

Base-catalysed isomerisation of aldoses of the arabino and lyxo series in aluminate solution has been investigated. L-Arabinose and D-galactose give L-erythro-2-pentulose (L-ribulose) and D-lyxo-2-hexulose (D-tagatose), respectively, in good yields, whereas lower reactivity is observed for 6-deoxy-D-galactose (D-fucose). From D-lyxose, D-mannose and 6-deoxy-L-mannose (L-rhamnose) are obtained mixtures of ketoses and C-2 epimeric aldoses. Small amounts of the 3-epimers of the ketoses were also formed. 6-Deoxy-L-arabino-2-hexulose (6-deoxy-L-fructose) and 6-deoxy-L-glucose (L-quinovose) were formed in low yields from 6-deoxy-L-mannose and isolated as their O-isopropylidene derivatives. Explanations of the differences in reactivity and course of the reaction have been suggested on the basis of steric effects. 相似文献

Synthesis of 4-cyano and 4-nitrophenyl 1,6-dithio-D-manno-, L-ido- and D-glucoseptanosides possessing antithrombotic activity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
1,6-Anhydro-3,4-O-isopropylidene-1-thio-D-mannitol was converted into its sulfoxide which after hydrolysis, acetylation and subsequent Pummerer rearrangement gave the penta-O-acetyl-1-thio-D-mannoseptanose anomers in excellent yield. This anomeric mixture was used as donor for the glycosylation of 4-nitro- and 4-cyanobenzenethiol in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate and trimethylsilyl triflate, respectively, to yield the corresponding thioseptanosides in high yield. The same strategy was applied for the synthesis of the corresponding L-idothioseptanosides using 1,6-anhydro-3,4-O-isopropylidene-1-thio-L-iditol as starting material. The penta-O-acetyl-D-glucothioseptanose donors could not be synthesised the same way, as the Pummerer reaction of the corresponding tetra-O-acetyl-1,6-thioanhydro-1-thio-D-glucitol sulfoxides led to an inseparable mixture of the corresponding L-gulo- and D-glucothioseptanose anomers. Therefore, D-glucose diethyl dithioacetal was converted via its 2,3,4,5-tetra-O-acetyl-6-S-acetyl derivative into an anomeric mixture of its 6-thio-septanose and -furanose peracetates which could be separated by column chromatography. Condensation of the 6-thio-glucoseptanose peracetates with 4-cyano- and 4-nitrobenezenethiol in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate afforded anomeric mixtures of the corresponding thioseptanosides. The D-manno-, L-ido- and D-glucothioseptanosides obtained after Zemplén deacetylation of these mixtures were tested for their oral antithrombotic activity. 相似文献

The Hypocrea jecorina LXR1 was described as the first fungal l-xylulose reductase responsible for NADPH dependent reduction of l-xylulose to xylitol in l-arabinose catabolism. Phylogenetic analysis now reveals that LXR1 forms a clade with fungal d-mannitol 2-dehydrogenases. Lxr1 and the orthologous Aspergillus nigermtdA are not induced by l-arabinose but expressed at low levels during growth on different carbon sources. Deletion of lxr1 does not affect growth on l-arabinose and l-xylulose reductase activity remains unaltered whereas d-mannitol 2-dehydrogenase activities are reduced. We conclude that LXR1 is a d-mannitol 2-dehydrogenase and that a true LXR1 is still awaiting discovery. 相似文献
