The enantiomers of the anorectic drug amfepramone [rac-diethylpropion, rac-2-(diethylamino)-1-phenyl-1-propanone; rac-DEP] were separated in the preparative scale by crystallization. With enantiopure di-O-benzoyltartaric acid as salt-forming chiral selector, diastereoisomeric salts of DEP enantiomers with a final purity of more than 97.5% were obtained. Analytical liquid chromatographic and electrophoretic methods for the control of the enantiomeric purity and the stoichiometry of the salts were developed. The enantioseparation of rac-DEP by capillary electrophoresis (CE) using hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta-CD) as chiral discriminator and phosphate buffer (pH 3.3) as run buffer led to good separations. HPLC methods were developed using polysaccharide chiral stationary phases (CSP). The separation of the two enantiomers and the two main degradation products (1-phenyl-1,2-propanedione and propiophenone), known from solid and liquid pharmaceutical preparations, was attained in one run on the silica-based CSP cellulose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) (Chiralcel OD). The conditions which might affect the enantioselectivity and the quality of the enantiomeric separation were investigated for Chiralcel OD and the related CSP amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) (Chiralpak AD). Both CSPs showed very similar chromatographic properties. The separation factors could be influenced significantly by varying the polar organic modifier added to the mobile phase. 相似文献

Electrokinetic chromatography was employed to separate the enantiomers of two novel functionalized ruthenium(II) complexes with different polypyridyl coordination spheres. The use of anionic carboxymethyl-beta-cyclodextrin as chiral mobile phase additive resulted in maximum efficiency and resolution for the enantiomer separation of both transition metal complexes. The syntheses of the [4-(3-hydroxypropyl)-4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine]-bis(2,2'-bipyridine)rethenium(II)-bis(tetrafluoroborate) and [4-(3-hydroxypropyl)-4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine]-bis(4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bypyridine)ruthenium(II)-bis(tetrafluoroborate) complexes and their complete characterization by means of two-dimensional (1)H and (13)C[(1)H] NMR techniques ((1)H-(1)H COSY and (1)H-(13)C HMQC) as well as elemental analyses and MALDI-TOFMS are described in detail. The functionalized complexes can be used as building blocks for further reactions with polymers, biopolymers, surfaces and nanoparticles. 相似文献

We wish to propose a correction to the methodology introduced by Gerstner et al. [J.A. Gerstner, J.A. Bell, S.M. Cramer, Biophys. Chem. 52 (1994) 97-106] for the calculation of Gibbs free energies of adsorption of biomolecules to ion-exchange systems. Our approach is based on the requirement that the mobile phase and stationary phase concentrations be expressed in exactly the same units and the equilibrium constant be strictly dimensionless. The Gibbs free energies of ion-exchange calculated based on this correction appear to be more negative than those originally calculated by Gertner et al. 相似文献

A simple and reliable capillary electrophoresis (CE) method with UV-vis detection is presented for the enantioselective separation and determination of vigabatrin enantiomers. Dehydroabietylisothiocyante (DHAIC), a novel chiral derivatizing reagent, was used for precolumn derivatization of vigabatrin enantiomers. Optimal separation was obtained with a running buffer consisting of 50 mM Na2HPO4 (pH 9.0), 17 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and 25% acetonitrile. The enantiomeric separation of vigabatrin derivatives was achieved within 25 min, and the resolution was found to be 2.1. Detection was followed by direct UV absorptiometric measurements at 202 nm. A calibration curve ranging from 0.3 to 6.0 microg/ml was shown to be linear, and the limit of detection was 0.15 microg/ml. The developed method has been applied to the determination of vigabatrin enantiomers spiked in human plasma, no interferences were found from endogenous amino acids. 相似文献

Two methods were developed for the determination of mexiletine enantiomers in plasma samples suitable for studies on the stereoselective disposition of this drug. Both methods used fluorescence detection to improve sensitivity and selectivity. The direct enantioselective separation was based on the chiral resolution of mexiletine-2-naphthamide derivatives on a Chiralcel OJ column. The calibration curves were linear over the concentration range 50–500 ng/ml for each enantiomer; therefore the method can be used only for therapeutic monitoring, drug interaction and multiple dose pharmacokinetic studies. The indirect method was based on the formation of diastereomers using o-phthaldialdehyde and N-acetyl-l-cysteine reagents. The diastereomers were resolved on a reversed-phase RP-18 column. The method proved to be suitable for single or multiple dose pharmakokinetic studies based on the loq quantification limit ng/ml) and the broader linear range (1–1000 ng/ml) obtained. 相似文献

Cyclosophoraoses isolated from Rhizobium meliloti, as an NMR chiral shift agent, were used to discriminate propranolol enantiomers. Continuous variation plot made from the complex of cyclosophoraoses with propranolol showed that the diastereomeric complex had predominantly 1:1 stoichiometry through UV spectroscopic analysis. The chiral recognition of propranolol enantiomers by cyclosophoraoses was investigated through the determination of binding constant based on the (13)C NMR chemical shift changes. The averaged K(obs) values from the plots were 55.7 M(-1) for (R)-(+)-propranolol and 36.6 M(-1) for (S)-(-)-propranolol, respectively. Enantioselectivity (alpha = K(R+)/K(S(-)) of 1.52 was then obtained. Computational calculation also revealed that (R)-(+) propranolol was more tightly bound with cyclosophoraose than (S)-(-)-propranolol due to the enhanced van der Waals interaction. 相似文献

Synthesis of (?)-bevantolol hydrochloride from 3,4-dimethoxyphenethylamine and (S)-(+)-m-tolyl glycidyl ether derived from (R)-(?)-epichlorohydrin established the absolute configuration of the (+) and (?) enantiomer as R and S, respectively. The purity of the enantiomers was determines using a chiral cellulose column (CHIRALCEL OD®) which allowed direct separation of the enantiomers. A separation factor (α) of 4.20 and a resolution factor (Rs) of 9.21 were obtained. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

On the calculation of electrostatic interactions in proteins 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
In this paper we present a classical treatment of electrostatic interactions in proteins. The protein is treated as a region of low dielectric constant with spherical charges embedded within it, surrounded by an aqueous solvent of high dielectric constant, which may contain a simple electrolyte. The complete analysis includes the effects of solvent screening, polarization forces, and self energies, which are related to solvation energies. Formulae, and sample calculations of forces and energies, are given for the special case of a spherical protein. Our analysis and model calculations point out that any consistent treatment of electrostatic interactions in proteins should account for the following. Solvent polarization is an important factor in the calculation of pairwise electrostatic interactions. Solvent polarization substantially affects both electrostatic energies and forces acting upon charges. No simple expression for the effective dielectric constant, Deff, can generally be valid, since Deff is a sensitive function of position. Solvent screening of pairwise interactions involving dipolar groups is less effective than the screening of charges. In fact for many interactions involving dipoles, solvent screening can be essentially ignored. The self energy of charges makes a large contribution to the total electrostatic energy of a protein. This must be compensated by specific interactions with other groups in the protein. Strategies for applying our analysis to proteins whose structures are known are discussed. 相似文献

A theoretical approach to the quantitative estimation of the energy of hydrophobic interactions on the molecular level has been developed. The model is based on the fundamental relationship between the probability of shaping of a cavity of the excluded volume in liquid water that results from fluctuations of density and free energy of prime hydrophobic solvates, hard spheres. This probability was estimated with the use of the probabilistic method in combination with experimentally observed data on density and radial distribution function of allocation. Free energy of hydrophobic interactions for a complex consisting of several hard spheres was determined. The critical value of the particles included in the complex was estimated. 相似文献

High-performance liquid chromatographic separation of fluoroquinolone enantiomers: a review 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Fluoroquinolones are antibacterial agents widely used clinically. In recent years, there has been an important development of new derivatives, and more than 7000 analogues have been described today. Different fluoroquinolones (FQ) have one or two chiral centers in their chemical structure and are available as racemates, diastereoisomers, or pure enantiomers. The clinical and pharmaceutical uses of these compounds need effective analytical procedures for quality control and pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic studies. This review article focuses on the high-performance liquid chromatographic separation of fluoroquinolone stereoisomers by the use of derivatization methods and ligand exchange (LE) or chiral liquid chromatography. 相似文献

If a branched multistep editing mechanism is implemented by an enzyme with a single site for the specific substrates, there is no reason to believe that the number of testing steps is fixed and cannot be controlled by some external factors. The paper considers the mechanisms of single- or multistep editing done in response to various factors, particularly to the value of displacement from the reaction equilibrium. To avoid a complicated analysis of a fully specified case, which would be likely to obscure the general significant features, the operating modes of those mechanisms are estimated using the method of minimizing associated information gains. It turns out that sufficiently far from equilibrium the variable mechanisms can essentially operate just as well as the fixed multistep mechanisms. 相似文献

An enantioselective assay has been developed for the determination of the enantiomers of ketorolac and its metabolite p-hydroxyketorolac in plasma and urine. The analytical method utilizes a coupled achiral–chiral HPLC system where the initial separation of ketorolac from p-hydroxyketorolac and matrix interferences was achieved on a C18-stationary phase and the enantioselective separations of the two target solutes were accomplished on a human serum albumin-based chiral stationary phase. The two columns were attached in sequence and the assay was carried out without the necessity of column-switching techniques. The method has been validated for use in pharmacokinetic and metabolic studies and represents the initial report of the determination of ketorolac and p-hydroxyketorolac enantiomers in urine. The results of the study indicate that after the administration of racemic ketorolac there was an enantioselective distribution of ketorolac enantiomers in plasma [(R)-ketorolac: (S)-ketorolac = 3.89 ± 0.93 (n = 6) and urine (R)-ketorolac: (S)-ketorolac = 1.26 ± 0.09 (n = 7)]. The mean ratio of the p-hydroxyketorolac enantiomers was 1.77 ± 0.46 (n = 7). Both ketorolac and p-hydroxyketorolac are glucuronized in the acyl carboxyl moiety and the results of this study indicate that this process is not enantiospecific. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

The integration of various types of genomic data into predictive models of biological networks is one of the main challenges currently faced by computational biology. Constraint-based models in particular play a key role in the attempt to obtain a quantitative understanding of cellular metabolism at genome scale. In essence, their goal is to frame the metabolic capabilities of an organism based on minimal assumptions that describe the steady states of the underlying reaction network via suitable stoichiometric constraints, specifically mass balance and energy balance (i.e. thermodynamic feasibility). The implementation of these requirements to generate viable configurations of reaction fluxes and/or to test given flux profiles for thermodynamic feasibility can however prove to be computationally intensive. We propose here a fast and scalable stoichiometry-based method to explore the Gibbs energy landscape of a biochemical network at steady state. The method is applied to the problem of reconstructing the Gibbs energy landscape underlying metabolic activity in the human red blood cell, and to that of identifying and removing thermodynamically infeasible reaction cycles in the Escherichia coli metabolic network (iAF1260). In the former case, we produce consistent predictions for chemical potentials (or log-concentrations) of intracellular metabolites; in the latter, we identify a restricted set of loops (23 in total) in the periplasmic and cytoplasmic core as the origin of thermodynamic infeasibility in a large sample (10(6)) of flux configurations generated randomly and compatibly with the prior information available on reaction reversibility. 相似文献

A sensitive and reproducible HPLC method utilizing a commercially available chiral α1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) phase has been developed to separate and quantify the enantiomers of nicotine. The method is suitable for routine use as indicated by column life. The quantification of (R/S:0.05/99.95)-nicotine or (R/S:99/1)-nicotine was possible. In addition, the separation or at least partial separation of the enantiomers of nornicotine and nornicotine-derived compounds was achieved. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

The energetic contributions of individual DNA-contacting side chains to specific DNA recognition in the human papillomavirus 16 E2C-DNA complex is small (less than 1.0 kcal mol(-1)), independent of the physical and chemical nature of the interaction, and is strictly additive. The sum of the individual contributions differs 1.0 kcal mol(-1) from the binding energy of the wild-type protein. This difference corresponds to the contribution from the deformability of the DNA, known as "indirect readout." Thus, we can dissect the energetic contribution to DNA binding into 90% direct and 10% indirect readout components. The lack of high energy interactions indicates the absence of "hot spots," such as those found in protein-protein interfaces. These results are compatible with a highly dynamic and "wet" protein-DNA interface, yet highly specific and tight, where individual interactions are constantly being formed and broken. 相似文献

Free energy calculation on base specificity of drug--DNA interactions: application to daunomycin and acridine intercalation into DNA 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We present the results of free energy perturbation/molecular dynamics studies on B-DNA.daunomycin and B-DNA.9-aminoacridine complexes as well as on B-DNA itself in order to calculate the free energy differences between complexes having different base pair sequences. The results generally reproduce the trends observed experimentally, i.e., preferences of acridine and daunomycin to bind to a specific base sequence in the DNA. This is encouraging, given the simplicity of the molecular mechanical/dynamical model in which solvent is not explicitly included. 相似文献

Resonance energy-transfer approaches have been used to directly monitor the interactions of the GTP gamma S-bound alpha subunit of transducin (alpha T GTP gamma S) with the retinal cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase (PDE). The PDE was labeled with 5-(iodoacetamido) fluorescein (IAF-PDE) and served as the fluorescence donor in these experiments while the alpha T GTP gamma S was labeled with eosin-5-isothiocyanate (EITC-alpha T GTP gamma S) and served as the energy acceptor. The EITC-alpha T GTP gamma S species was able to quench a significant percentage of the IAF-PDE fluorescence (typically greater than or equal to 30%) due to resonance energy transfer between the IAF and EITC moieties. The quenching by the EITC-alpha T GTP gamma S species was dose-dependent, saturable (Kd = 21 nM), and specific for the GTP gamma S-bound form of the alpha T subunit. Limited trypsin treatment of the IAF-PDE, which selectively removes a fluorescein-labeled gamma subunit (gamma PDE), completely eliminates the quenching of the IAF fluorescence by the EITC-alpha T GTP gamma S complex. Although the EITC-alpha T GTP gamma S complex competes with the unlabeled alpha T GTP gamma S for a binding site on the IAF-PDE, as well as for a site on the native PDE, it is not able to stimulate PDE activity. Thus, the modification of a single EITC-reactive residue on the alpha T GTP gamma S complex prevents this subunit from eliciting a key activation event within the retinal effector enzyme. 相似文献

The usage of Gibbs free energy (G) in biochemistry is examined critically. The textbook formulation of the Second Law of Thermodynamics as applied to chemically-reacting systems is reviewed. Cognizance of the established theory and terminology of chemical thermodynamics leads to the conclusion that the symbol "delta G", as used in most biochemical calculations of free-energy change (e.g. in freeze-clamp study of steady-state metabolic processes), is erroneous. The instantaneous change, symbolized by the expression (delta G/delta xi) (with xi the degree of advancement of the reaction), is seen to be the correct form for describing the thermodynamic quality of the reactions of cell metabolism. Mathematical and graphical analysis of a sample reaction demonstrates the fundamental difference between delta G and (delta G/delta xi). Some problems in the application and interpretation of free-energy change in biochemical systems are reviewed: (1) Advances in protein dynamics have revealed the free-energy linkage properties of the enzyme molecule in binding/catalytic events of catalysis, demanding that we view the thermodynamics of elementary enzyme reactions with a finer eye. (2) The reality of metabolic microenvironments in vivo leads to equivocation in the significance of free-energy changes measured under macroscopic conditions in vitro. (3) The physicochemical character of reaction dynamics in the living cell may in some cases exceed the domain of validity of such thermodynamic state functions as Gibbs free energy. 相似文献
