Clay is a possible candidate for an effective catalyst in prebiotic chemical evolution of biomolecules. Montmorillonite was reported to effectively catalyze oligomerization of racemic adenosine 5′-phosphorimidazolide (DL-ImpA). In the oligomerization reaction, considerable amounts of cyclic dimers as well as linear dimers were produced in the oligomerization reactions. To assess the regio- and diastereo-selectivities of the oligomerization reaction, the dimer products including cyclic dimers were completely identified by means of enzymatic degradation reactions of the products. 相似文献

The applicability of terminated oligomerization to the synthesis of oligo-(β1-6)-glucosamines, fragments of the intercellular polysaccharide adhesin of staphylococci, was studied. The reactions of terminated oligomerization were carried out with mono-, di-, and trisaccharide monomers and N-protected aminopropanol; and spacered mono-and disaccharides as terminating molecules were also attempted. The primary formation of cyclic products of monomer intramolecular glycosylation was observed in almost all the reactions. Only the experiments with the monomer based on the disaccharide bromide under the conditions of the Helferich reaction led to reduced yields (30%) of the cyclic products. However, even in this case, the desired terminated oligosaccharides were generated in approximately 10% yield and mainly were the products of single glycosylation of the terminator by the monomer. These experiments allow the conclusion that, under the examined conditions, the reaction of terminated oligomerization could not result in the synthesis of oligoglucosamines with a high molecular mass. 相似文献

The montmorillonite-catalyzed reactions of the 5′-phosphorimidazolides of D, L-adenosine (D, L-ImpA) (Figure 1a. N = A, R
= H) and D, L-uridine (Figure 1a., N = U, R = H) yields oligomers that were as long as 7 mers and 6 mers, respectively. The
reactions of dilute solutions of D-ImpA and D-ImpU under the same conditions gave oligomers as long as 9 and 8 mers respectively.
This demonstrated that oligomer formation is only partially inhibited by incorporation of both the D- and L-enantiomers. The
structures of the dimers, trimers and tetramer fractions formed from D, L-ImpA was investigated by selective enzymatic hydrolysis,
comparison with authentic samples and mass spectrometry. Homochiral products were present in greater amounts than would be
expected if theoretical amounts of each were formed. The ratio of the proportion of homochiral products to that of the amount
of each expected for the dimers (cyclic and linear), trimers and tetramers, was 1.3, 1.6, and 2.1, respectively. In the D,
L-ImpU reaction homochiral products did not predominate with ratios of dimers (cyclic and linear), trimers and tetramers 0.8,
0.44, and 1.4, respectively. The proportions of cyclic dimers in the dimer fraction were 52–66% with D, L-ImpA and 44–69%
with D, L-ImpU. No cyclic dimers were formed in the absence of montmorillonite. The differences in the reaction products of
D, L-ImpA and D, L-ImpU are likely to be due to the difference in the orientations of the activated monomers when bound to
the catalytic sites on montmorillonite. The consequences of the selectivity of montmorillonite as a prebiotic catalyst are
discussed. 相似文献

Mechanisms of the reactions of representative dipeptides (Gly2, Gly-Ala), oligopeptides (Gly3, Gly4) and the polypeptide (poly-Gly)n) in solution and clay suspensions at 85 degrees C were investigated. The reaction products and their yields were analysed and determined by means of HPLC. Interestingly, hydrolysis, where water molecules act as the reactant, was not the main reaction, even for oligopeptides. Formation of cyclic dipeptides prevailed in the reactions of dimers as well as oligopeptides. The breakdown of oligopeptide molecules proceeded via an intramolecular cyclization reaction. For example, the reaction of Gly3 led to the formation of equal amounts of cyclic dipeptide, c(Gly)2 and Gly. The presence of clay (montmorillonite) significantly increased yields in the reactions of dipeptides but it did not have much effect on the reactions of oligopeptides. However, an opposite effect of clay, protection of poly(Gly)n against decomposition, was proven. 相似文献

Selective adsorption of D, L-ImpA with D, L-ImpU on the platelets of montmorillonite demonstrates an important reaction pathway
for the origin of homochirality in RNA synthesis. Our earlier studies have shown that the individual reactions of D, L-ImpA
or D, L-ImpU on montmorillonite catalyst produced oligomers which were only partially inhibited by the incorporation of both
D- and L-enantiomers. Homochirality in these reactions was largely due to the formation of cyclic dimers that cannot elongate.
We investigated the quaternary reactions of D, L-ImpA with D, L-ImpU on montmorillonite. The chain length of these oligomers
increased from 9-mer to 11-mer as observed by HPLC, with a concominant increase in the yield of linear dimers and higher oligomers
in the reactions involving D, L-ImpA with D, L-ImpU as compared to the similar reactions carried out with D-enantiomers only.
The formation of cyclic dimers of U was completely inhibited in the quaternary reactions. The yield of cyclic dimers of A
was reduced from 60% to 10% within the dimer fraction. 12 linear dimers and 3 cyclic dimers were isolated and characterized
from the quaternary reaction. The homochirality and regioselectivity of dimers were 64.1% and 71.7%, respectively. Their sequence
selectivity was shown by the formation of purine-pyrimidine (54–59%) linkages, followed by purine-purine (29–32%) linkages
and pyrimidine-pyrimidine (9–13%) linkages. Of the 16 trimers detected, 10 were homochiral with an overall homochirality of
73–76%. In view of the greater homochirality, sequence- and regio- selectivity, the quaternary reactions on montmorillonite
demonstrate an unexpectedly favorable route for the prebiotic synthesis of homochiral RNA compared with the separate reactions
of enantiomeric activated mononucleotides. 相似文献

We have investigated the transformation of chlorinated hydroxybiphenyls by laccase produced by Pycnoporus cinnabarinus. The compounds used were transformed to sparingly water-soluble colored precipitates which were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry as oligomerization products of the chlorinated hydroxybiphenyls. During oligomerization of 2-hydroxy-5-chlorobiphenyl and 3-chloro-4-hydroxybiphenyl, dechlorinated C---C-linked dimers were formed, demonstrating the dehalogenation ability of laccase. In addition to these nonhalogenated dimers, both monohalogenated and dihalogenated dimers were identified. 相似文献

The condensation reactions of hexanucleotides involving guanine and cytosine in the presence of water-soluble carbodiimide (WSC) have been investigated as a model reaction of the prebiotic formation of RNA under primitive earth. The reactions formed cyclic hexanucleotides and dimers in which the product yields were dependent on the sequence. 相似文献

The montmorillonite-catalyzed reactions of the 5′-phosphorimidazolide of adenosine in the presence of fluoride were investigated to complete our study on the effect of salts on this type of reaction. Both anions and cations have been found to influence the oligomerization reactions of the activated nucleotides, being used here as a model system for pre-biotic RNA synthesis. However, in total contrast to the behavior of the activated nucleotides in the presence of montmorillonite and other salts, alkali metal fluorides did not yield any detectable oligomerization products except in very dilute (<0.005 M) solutions of fluoride. Instead, 5′-phosphorofluoridates were formed. Their identity was confirmed by a combination of HPLC, mass spectrometry, synthesis, and NMR. 相似文献

Scanning calorimetric study of the thermal unfolding of catabolite activator protein from Escherichia coli in the absence and presence of cyclic mononucleotides 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
The thermal unfolding of the catabolite activator protein (CAP) of Escherichia coli and the complexes it forms with adenosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (cAMP) and guanosine cyclic 3',5'-phosphate (cGMP) was studied by high-sensitivity differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The thermal denaturation of CAP at pH 7.00 gave an irreversible, symmetrical denaturation curve with a single peak. Distinctly different, more complex DSC curves were obtained for the thermal denaturation of the cAMP-protein and cGMP-protein complexes. The DSC data indicate intermolecular cooperation among CAP dimers, with the extent of oligomerization remaining unchanged during unfolding of the protein. The DSC curves for the thermal denaturation of the cAMP-protein complex and cGMP-protein complex have been resolved into three and two components, respectively, according to the model of independent two-state processes. Analysis of the DSC data suggests two and three independent domains for cGMP-protein and cAMP-protein complexes, respectively, with dissociation of mononucleotide occurring in the second component in both cases during protein denaturation. Furthermore, our studies indicate that the presence of either ligand alters the degree of oligomerization of CAP dimers, cAMP having a greater effect than cGMP. 相似文献

The montmorillonite-catalyzed reactions of D, L-ImpA with D, L-ImpU generates RNA-like oligomers. The structures of the dimers
to pentamers were investigated and homochiral products were identified in greater amounts than would be expected if theoretical
amounts of each were formed. The homochirality increased from 64% to 97% as the chain length increased from dimers to pentamers.
Investigation of the effect of pH, occupancy of the interlayer space and the influence of various cations in the reaction
provided further insight into physical process in the mechanism of the catalysis. A detailed analysis of dimers was carried
out in view of there being key intermediates towards formation of higher oligomers. The study was extended to the synthesis
of non-standard dimers including those formed with deoxy-ribonucleotides. 相似文献

Recent studies illustrate that short oligonucleotide sequences can be easily produced from nucleotide precursors in a template-free non-enzymatic way under dehydrating conditions, i.e. using essentially dry materials. Here we report that 3’,5’ cyclic AMP may also serve as a substrate of the reaction, which proceeds under moderate conditions yet with a lower efficiency than the previously reported oligomerization of 3’,5’ cyclic GMP. Optimally the oligomerization requires (i) a temperature of 80°C, (ii) a neutral to alkaline environment and (iii) a time on the order of weeks. Differences in the yield and required reaction conditions of the oligomerizations utilizing 3’,5’ cGMP and cAMP are discussed in terms of the crystal structures of the compounds. Polymerization of 3’,5’ cyclic nucleotides, whose paramount relevance in a prebiotic chemistry context has been widely accepted for decades, supports the possibility that the origin of extant genetic materials might have followed a direct uninterrupted path since its very beginning, starting from non-elaborately pre-activated monomer compounds and simple reactions. 相似文献

We investigated the oligomerization of solid valine and the stabilities of valine and valine peptides under conditions of high temperature (150–200 °C) and high pressure (50–150 MPa). Experiments were performed under non-aqueous condition in order to promote dehydration reaction. After prolonged exposure of monomeric valine to elevated temperatures and pressures, the products were analyzed by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry comparing their retention times and masses. We identified linear peptides that ranged in size from dimer to hexamer, as well as a cyclic dimer. Previous studies that attempted abiotic oligomerization of valine in the absence of a catalyst have never reported valine peptides larger than a dimer. Increased reaction temperature increased the dissociative decomposition of valine and valine peptides to products such as glycine, β-alanine, ammonia, and amines by processes such as deamination, decarboxylation, and cracking. The amount of residual valine and peptide yields was greater at higher pressures at a given temperature, pressure, and reaction time. This suggests that dissociative decomposition of valine and valine peptides is reduced by pressure. Our findings are relevant to the investigation of diagenetic processes in prebiotic marine sediments where similar pressures occur under water-poor conditions. These findings also suggest that amino acids, such as valine, could have been polymerized to peptides in deep prebiotic marine sediments within a few hundred million years. 相似文献

Phosphoimidazolide-activated ribomononucleotides (*pN; see Scheme I) are useful substrates for the nonenzymatic synthesis
of oligonucleotides. In the presence of metal ions dilute neutral aqueous solutions of *pN (0.01 M) typically yield only small amounts of dimers and traces of oligomers; most of *pN hydrolyzes to yield nucleoside 5′-monophosphate
(5′NMP). An earlier investigation of *pN reactions in highly concentrated aqueous solutions (up to 1.4 M) showed, as expected, that the percentage yield of the condensation products increases and the yield of the hydrolysis product
correspondingly decreases with *pN concentration (Kanavarioti 1997). Here we report product distributions in reactions with
one, two, or three reactive components at the same total nucleotide concentration. *pN used as substrates were the nucleoside 5′-phosphate 2-methylimidazolides, 2-MeImpN, with N= cytidine (C), uridine (U), or guanosine (G). Reactions were conducted as self-condensations, i.e., one nucleotide only,
with two components in the three binary U,C, U,G, and C,G mixtures, and with three components in the ternary U,C,G mixture.
The products are 5′NMP, 5′,5′-pyrophosphate-, 2′,5′-, 3′,5′-linked dimers, cyclic dimers, and a small percentage of longer
oligomers. The surprising finding was that, under identical conditions, including the same total monomer concentration, the
product distribution differs substantially from one reaction to another, most likely due to changing intermolecular interactions
depending on the constituents. Even more unexpected was the observed trend according to which reactions of the U,C,G mixture
produce the highest yield of internucleotide-linked dimers, whereas the self-condensations produce the least and the reactions
with the binary mixtures produce yields that fall in between. What is remarkable is that the approximately two-fold increase
in the percentage yield of internucleotide-linked dimers is not due to a concentration effect or a catalyst, but to the increased
complexity of the system from a single to two and three components. These observations, perhaps, provide an example of how
increased complexity in relatively simple chemical systems leads to organization of the material and consequently to chemical
evolution. A possible link between prebiotic chemistry and the postulated RNA world is discussed.

The voltammetric oxidation of adenosine-3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (3',5'-CAMP) has been studied in the pH range 2.13-10.07 using pyrolytic graphite electrode (PGE). Voltammetric, coulometric, spectral studies, and product characterization indicate that the oxidation of 3',5'-CAMP occurs in an EC reaction involving a 6H+, 6e process at pH 7.24. Electrooxidized products were seperated by semipreparative high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and were characterized by mp, 1HNMR, FTIR, and GC-mass as allantoin cyclic ribose monophosphate and 3 dimers as the major products. A detailed interpretation of the redox mechanism of 3',5'-CAMP also has been presented to account for the formation of various products. 相似文献

HIV-1 integrase (IN) catalyses integration of a DNA copy of the viral genome into the host genome. Specific interactions between retroviral IN and long terminal repeats (LTR) are required for this insertion. To characterize quantitatively the influence of the determinants of DNA substrate specificity on the oligomerization status of IN, we used the small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) technique. Under certain conditions in the absence of ODNs IN existed only as monomers. IN preincubation with specific ODNs led mainly to formation of dimers, the relative amount of which correlated well with the increase in the enzyme activity in the 3′-processing reaction. Under these conditions, tetramers were scarce. Non-specific ODNs stimulated formation of catalytically inactive dimers and tetramers. Complexes of monomeric, dimeric and tetrameric forms of IN with specific and non-specific ODNs had varying radii of gyration (Rg), suggesting that the specific sequence-dependent formation of IN tetramers can probably occur by dimerization of two dimers of different structure. From our data we can conclude that the DNA-induced oligomerization of HIV-1 IN is probably of importance to provide substrate specificity and to increase the enzyme activity. 相似文献

Laccases from different sources catalyse oxidation of various phenolic and aromatic compounds to products that very often are colourful and may be used as dyes, especially in the textile industry. They catalyse not only catabolic processes such as depolymerisation and degradation but can also carry out various dimerization, oligomerization, and polymerization reactions of some hundred aromatic substrates that synthesize new molecules with valuable functions. Because of their versatile biochemical properties, high protein stability, breadth of substrate spectrum, laccases are the key enzymes having applications in biotechnological processes as eco-friendly biocatalyst. This review refers to the natural abilities of laccases to synthesize colour products with respect to the type of the enzymatic reaction, catalyst characterization and possible use of these colour products as dyestuffs. 相似文献

HIV-1 integrase (IN) oligomerization and DNA recognition are crucial steps for the subsequent events of the integration reaction. Recent advances described the involvement of stable intermediary complexes including dimers and tetramers in the in vitro integration processes, but the initial attachment events and IN positioning on viral ends are not clearly understood. In order to determine the role of the different IN oligomeric complexes in these early steps, we performed in vitro functional analysis comparing IN preparations having different oligomerization properties. We demonstrate that in vitro IN concerted integration activity on a long DNA substrate containing both specific viral and nonspecific DNA sequences is highly dependent on binding of preformed dimers to viral ends. In addition, we show that IN monomers bound to nonspecific DNA can also fold into functionally different oligomeric complexes displaying nonspecific double-strand DNA break activity in contrast to the well known single strand cut catalyzed by associated IN. Our results imply that the efficient formation of the active integration complex highly requires the early correct positioning of monomeric integrase or the direct binding of preformed dimers on the viral ends. Taken together the data indicates that IN oligomerization controls both the enzyme specificity and activity. 相似文献
