ABSTRACT A single phase extraction procedure employing 8% (v/v) n-butanol at room temperature extracted over 90% of alkaline phosphatase activity and over 60% of 5'-nucleotidase activity from bovine milk fat globule membranes (MFGM). For 5'-nucleotidase, higher n-butanol concentrations lead to loss of activity, while lower concentrations were ineffective in extracting the enzyme. When extractions were performed at 0°C, similar yields were obtained for alkaline phosphatase extraction with 8% (v/v) n-butanol, but 51- nucleotidase extraction required 10% (v/v) n-butanol for similar yields. However, 5'-nucleotidase was less susceptible to denaturation during extraction at 0°C. The Km values and substrate specificities for both alkaline phosphatase and 5'-nucleotidase were unchanged by extraction with 8% (v/v) n-butanol. The 8% (v/v) n-butanol extraction procedure provides a 3-fold purification step, and an enzyme preparation suitable for further purification. 相似文献

A method for the synthesis of 2-hydroxyestrone/estradiol, 4-hydroxyestrone/estradiol, 3'-hydroxydiethylstilbestrol, 3'-hydroxyhexestrol, and 3'-hydroxydienestrol is reported, in which 2-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) and the corresponding phenolic estrogen are reacted. Treatment of the natural estrogens, estrone/estradiol, with stoichiometric amounts of IBX in dimethylformamide initially yielded a mixture of estrone/estradiol-2,3- and -3,4-quinones, which were reduced in situ to the corresponding catechols by treatment with a 1 M aqueous solution of ascorbic acid. Chromatographic separation of the reaction products afforded 2- and 4-hydroxyestrone/estradiol in good overall yields (79%). In the case of the synthetic estrogens containing two identical phenolic rings, protection of one ring is a prerequisite for the synthesis of the monocatechol. Thus, diethylstilbestrol and dienestrol were protected at one phenol ring as their methyl ethers. The resulting monophenols were treated with stoichiometric amounts of IBX for 1 h, followed by treatment with 1 M aqueous ascorbic acid to obtain the corresponding catechols in more than 70% yield. Furthermore, the catechol of diethylstilbestrol, protected at one ring, was reduced by catalytic hydrogenation at the C3-C4 double bond to obtain 3'-hydroxyhexestrol in 90% yield. Removal of the protected methoxy groups of the synthetic estrogen catechols was carried out by treatment with a 1 M solution of boron tribromide in dichloromethane. This method is highly efficient for the preparative scale synthesis of catechols of both natural and synthetic estrogens. 相似文献

In order to investigate the production of tropane alkaloids by hairy roots of Atropa baetica, transgenic for the gene h6h encoding the enzyme hyoscyamine 6beta-hydroxylase, solvent extraction with chloroform and with dichloromethane of the metabolites present in the liquid medium and in the root tissue was compared. The extraction of scopolamine from the liquid medium was equally effective with either solvent, giving maximum values of around 850 microg/flask. For the roots, three different extraction methods were employed: A, employing chloroform:methanol: (25%) ammonia (15:5:1) for initial extraction, followed by treatment with sulfuric acid and ammonia, and using chloroform for the final extraction and washes; B, as A but using dichloromethane for extraction and washes; and C, as B but substituting chloroform for dichloromethane in the extraction cocktail. Scopolamine was the most abundant metabolite (present in amounts of 3250-3525 microg/g dry weight) and presented similar extraction efficiencies with all of the extraction methods employed. The highest amounts of hyoscyamine and the intermediate 6beta-hydxoxyhyoscyamine were present on day 31 (800 and 975 microg/g dry weight, respectively) and no statistical differences between the three extraction methods employed were detected. This study confirms that, for the extraction of tropane alkaloids, dichloromethane can replace the commonly employed chloroform, the use of which incurs major health, security and regulation problems. 相似文献

A rapid, specific, and sensitive radioassay for measuring bile acid CoA:glycine/taurine: N-acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1) has been developed. In this assay, 3H-labeled amino acids (glycine or taurine) are conjugated with unlabeled bile acid CoA derivatives to form 3H-labeled bile acid amidates. Following incubation, the 3H-labeled bile acid amidate is separated from the unreacted amino acid by an n-butanol extraction method. The extraction procedure was developed by evaluating the effects of buffer concentration and pH on the recovery of radiolabeled bile acid amidate standards in the presence of human hepatic cytosol. Highest recovery (greater than 90%) of bile acid amidate standards occurred under acidic conditions (pH 2) in the presence of 1% (w/v) SDS. When the radioassay and accompanying n-butanol extraction procedure were utilized to study the amidation of glycine or taurine with cholic acid in human hepatic cytosol, a single peak of radioactivity corresponding with either authentic glycocholate or taurocholate was detected in the n-butanol phase by high-performance liquid chromatography. This assay for bile acid CoA:glycine/taurine: N-acyltransferase activity was linear with incubation time and protein concentration. This assay should be useful in the biochemical studies of this enzyme, as well as in the examination of bile acid amidation in clinical liver specimens. 相似文献

The method for sequence analysis of large oligodeoxyribonucleotides based on the characteristic mobility shifts of their sequential partial degradation products on two-dimensional homochromatography has been perfected using a large number of synthetic oligodeoxyribonucleotides of defined sequences as standards. Flat bed electrophoresis with careful temperature control gave entirely reproducible mobilities in the first dimension. Using this information, an accurate formula has been derived for calculating the relative electrophoretic mobilities of oligodeoxyribonucleotides of any composition. This formula is used to calculate the mobility shifts between two consecutive oligodeoxyribonucleotides in a series of partial products of an unknown oligomer distributed in the two-dimensional homochromatogram which differ by one nucleotide in length. This is compared with the observed mobility shift value to identify the added nucleotide. This provides a direct and rapid method for obtaining the unambiguous sequence of an entire oligodeoxyribonucleotide up to 15 nucleotides in length. 相似文献

We have screened a number of plants from the Indian soil for potential antioxidant properties out of which fifteen extracts were found to be positive. Leaves/bulk from the plants were crushed and extracted with organic solvents by three different ways. The first group of plants were extracted with CHCL3:CH3OH (2:1), evaporated, partitioned between petroleum ether and methanol (9:1), aqueous methanolic part re-partitioned between methanol: H2O (4:1) and dichloromethane. Methanol was evaporated from the aqueous methanolic part and extracted with n-butanol. The second group of plants were extracted with methanol followed by partitioning between petroleum ether and CH3OH. The rest of the extraction procedure was the same as above. A third extraction procedure was used for Ocimum sanctum which after extraction with CHCL3:CH3OH (2:l), partitioned between CCL4 and CH3OH:H2O (9:1). Aqueous methanolic part was repartitioned between CH3OH:H2O (4:1) and CHCI3 and CHCI3 soluble part was used for the study. Free radical scavenging activities of the plant extracts were examined by chemiluminescence method. Peroxyl radical was generated from 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (AAPH), superoxide radical (O2--) from xanthine/xanthine oxidase (XO) and hydroxyl radical (OH) from Xanthine/XO/ FeClJ EDTA. In addition, O2-- and OH. scavenging activities were also determined by cytochrome C reduction and deoxyribose oxidation methods, respectively. The results of this study demonstrate that these plant extracts possess potent antioxidant activities. 相似文献

The purity of a drug substance can influence its toxicity and potency, so impurities must be specifically determined. In the case of synthetic oligodeoxyribonucleotide drugs, however, product complexity makes complete impurity speciation difficult. The goal of the present work was to develop a new analytical method for speciation of individual internal (n-1)mer impurities arising from formal nucleotide deletion in synthetic oligodeoxyribonucleotides. A complete series of oligodeoxyribonucleotide probes were designed, each complementary to an (n-1)mer deletion sequence of the drug in question. Glass plates were used as a solid support for individually immobilizing the entire probe array. The total mixture of internal (n-1) length impurities was isolated from a synthetic oligodeoxyribonucleotide by PAGE and labeled with 35S. Under stringently optimized conditions, only the perfectly sequence-matched oligodeoxyribonucleotide hybridized to each probe, while all other deletion sequences were removed by washing with buffer. The 35S signal intensity of the bound oligodeoxyribonucleotide was proportional to the concentration of each (n-1)mer deletion sequence in the analyte solution. This method has been applied to a number of synthetic phosphorothioate oligodeoxy-ribonucleotide lots and shown to be reliable for speciation and relative quantitation of the internal (n -1)mer deletion sequences present. 相似文献

Self-complementary oligodeoxyribonucleotides containing the base analogues 2-aminopurine, 2,6-diaminopurine, N6-methyladenine, uracil, and 5-bromouracil were synthesized by a general method that allows incorporation of the analogues at specific positions. The method uses chemically synthesized partial sequences but circumvents the need for protected base analogues by incorporating their unprotected 3',5'-bisphosphate derivatives enzymatically. T4 RNA ligase was used to add the analogues to the oligodeoxyribonucleotides with yields from 54 to greater than 95 percent. Oligodeoxyribonucleotides were joined to the oligodeoxyribonucleotides containing the analogues at their 3'-termini in yields from 22 to 81 percent. The high yields obtained in these joinings suggest that RNA ligase should be of general use for the specific incorporation of other deoxyribonucleotide analogues into oligodeoxyribonucleotides. The oligodeoxyribonucleotides containing the base analogues were characterized by their mobilities during HPLC, nucleoside compositions, sequences, and thermal stabilities. 相似文献

Evidence for capped poly(A) leaders of variable lengths located immediately upstream of the translation initiation codon was obtained by direct analyses of a major late mRNA species. A decapping-recapping method was used to specifically substitute a radioactively labeled phosphate for an unlabeled one within the cap structure. RNase H-susceptible sites were made by hybridizing synthetic oligodeoxyribonucleotides to the mRNA encoding a late major structural protein of 11 kilodaltons. Sequences of the type m7G(5')pppAmp (Ap)nUpG. . ., where n varies from a few to more than 40 nucleotides, were deduced by analysis of the length and sequence of RNase H, RNase T1, and RNase U2 digestion products. 相似文献

The synthesis of nmol quantities of defined sequences of oligodeoxyribonucleotides using T4 RNA ligase has been demonstrated. Reacting using from 18 to 200 nmol of substrates in which a single 2'-deoxyribonucleoside 3',5'-bisphosphate was added to an oligodeoxyribonucleotide resulted in yields from 13 to 95%. When two oligodeoxyribonucleotides were similarly joined using RNA ligase, the yields ranged from 10 to 50%. Although the reactions contained high concentrations of enzyme and were incubated from 5 to 21 days, there was little degradation of either substrates or products. We have also characterized an unusual product which arises when 3'-phosphate terminated oligodeoxyribonucleotides are incubated with RNA ligase and high concentrations of ATP. This product has an adenylyl group linked to the 3'-phosphate by an anhydride bond. The mechanistic and synthetic implications of forming this product are discussed. 相似文献

Summary Sulphuric acid whey filtrate has been shown to be a useful substrate for the production of n-butanol by fermentation. Using whey filtrate supplemented with 0.5% yeast extract, yields of 1.5%(w/v) n-butanol have been obtained. The ratio of butanol:acetone:ethanol products approximates 10:1:1. 相似文献

Petroleum hydrocarbons from 20 soils from refineries or other industrial sites were extracted with a mixture of chloroform and methanol (1:1, v/v), and the extracts were analyzed by thin layer chromatography with flame ionization detection (TLC/FID). The TLC/FID procedure has been used widely in biological and medical research but generally has been underutilized in environmental chemistry. The analysis method involved spotting a small volume of sample extract (typically 1 to 3?µl) on ten silica-coated quartz rods, and chromatographically separating constituents in the spots using solvent systems of increasing polarities (hexane, toluene, and dichloromethane + methanol). We achieved complete separation of saturated hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, resins, and asphaltenes from the hydrocarbon-contaminated soils with this method. Analysis of the separated constituents by TLC/FID also allowed quantification of aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons without interference from soil biogenic lipids. A simplified version of the method permitted excellent separation of aliphatics +aromatics (forming a single peak) from resins and asphaltenes. The procedure is rapid (complete analysis of ten samples in about 1?h after extraction). Thus, the method seems well suited for synoptic surveys or screening and characterizing numerous samples prior to using more detailed and costly analyses. 相似文献

Using a new method based on a combination of bisulfite reaction, the repair enzyme uracil-DNA glycosylase, and synthetic oligodeoxyribonucleotides, the methylation site of DNA-methyltransferase NlaX (M.NlaX) from Neisseria lactamica was established to be the inner cytosine in the double-stranded pentanucleotide recognition sequence 5'-CCNGG-3' (where N = any nucleoside). 5-Methylcytosine (m5C) type modification by M-N1aX was confirmed by the use of oligonucleotide substrates that contain 5-fluoro-2'-deoxycytidine. 相似文献

An original method based upon high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to ion spray mass spectrometry (HPLC-ISP-MS) has been developed for the identification and quantification of colchicine (COL) in human blood, plasma or urine. After single-step liquid-liquid extraction by dichloromethane at pH 8.0 using tofisopam (TOF) as an internal standard, solutes are separated on a 5-μm C18 Microbore (Alltech) column (250×1.0 mm, I.D.), using acetonitrile-2 mM NH4COOH, pH 3 buffer (75:25, v/v) as the mobile phase (flow-rate 50 μl/min). Detection is done by a Perkin-Elmer Sciex API-100 mass analyzer equipped with a ISP interface (nebulizing and curtain gas: N2, quality U; main settings: ISP, +4.0 kV; OR, +50 V; Q0, −10 V; Q1, −13 V; electron multiplier, +2.2 kV); MS data are collected as either total ion current (TIC, m/z 100–500 or 380–405), or selected ion monitoring (SIM) at m/z 400 and 383 for COL and TOF, respectively. COL mass spectrum shows a prominent molecular ion [M+H]+ at m/z 400. Increasing OR potential fails to provide a significant fragmentation. Retention times are 2.70 and 4.53 min for COL and TOF, respectively. The quantification method shows a good linearity (r = 0.998) over a concentration range from 5 to 200 ng/ml. The lower limit of detection in SIM mode is 0.6 ng/ml COL, making the method convenient for both clinical and forensic purposes. 相似文献

Fast methods for the removal of permanent amide exo-cyclic protective groups widely used in phosphoramidite-method DNA synthesis are desirable for many genomics and proteomics applications. In this communication, we present a method for the deprotection of a range of N-acyl deoxyribonucleosides (T, dA Bz, dC Bz, dC Ac, dG ibu, dG PAC) and synthetic oligodeoxyribonucleotides, ranging in length from 5-mer to 50-mer. Oligodeoxyribonucleotides were synthesized using standard amide protecting groups (dA Bz, dC Bz, dG ibu) and phosphoramidite chemistry on cis-diol solid phase support. This deprotection method utilizes 29% aqueous ammonia solution at 170 degrees C for 5 minutes under monomode microwave irradiation at a 20-nmole reaction scale. Reaction products were analyzed by TLC, RP-HPLC, CE, ESI-MS, real-time PCR, agarose gel electrophoresis, and by DNA uracil glycosylase (UDG) and phosphodiesterase I (PDE) enzymatic digestions. 相似文献

A rapid, inexpensive, sensitive and specific HPLC-ECD method for the determination of lipoic acid in human plasma was developed and validated over the linearity range of 0.001–10 μg/ml using naproxen sodium as an internal standard (IS). Extraction of lipoic acid and IS from plasma (250 μl) was carried out with a simple one step liquid–liquid extraction using dichloromethane. Similarly solid-phase extraction was carried out using dichloromethane as extraction solvent. The separated organic layer was dried under the stream of nitrogen at 40 °C and the residue was reconstituted with the mobile phase. Complete separation of both lipoic acid and IS at 30 °C on Discovery HS C18 RP column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) was achieved in 6 min using 0.05 M phosphate buffer (pH 2.5 adjusted with phosphoric acid):acetonitrile (50:50, v/v) as a mobile phase pumped at the rate of 1.5 ml/min using electrochemical detector in DC mode at the detector potential of 1.0 V. The limit of detection and limit of quantification of lipoic acid were 200 pg/ml and 1 ng/ml, respectively. While on column limit of detection and limit of quantification of lipoic acid were 10 and 50 pg/ml, respectively. The absolute recoveries of lipoic acid with liquid–liquid and solid-phase extraction were 98.43, 95.65, 101.45, and 97.36, 102.73, 100.17% at 0.5, 1 and 5 μg/ml levels, respectively. Coefficient of variations for both intra-day and inter-day were between 0.28 and 4.97%. The method is validated and will be quite suitable for the analysis of lipoic acid in the plasma of human volunteers as well as patients with diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. 相似文献

This study examines a novel sample preparation method for the determination of 11 hydroxy metabolites of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in plasma and organ tissues, followed by gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection (GC/MS). The clean-up method was optimized to eliminate the interference matter by using a silica column and 10 mL of n-hexane/dichloromethane (4:6, v/v) as an eluent. Solid-phase and solvent extraction procedures were used for the plasma and tissues samples, respectively. Compared to C(18) and C(8) solid-phase, C(2) showed higher extraction efficiency with n-hexane as the eluent for plasma. The hydroxy-PCB extraction recoveries achieved with this combined extraction and clean-up procedure from plasma ranged from 87 to 117%, while those from tissues ranged from 82 to 111%. The linear detector responses for propyl derivatives of hydroxy-PCBs were obtained with the coefficients of determination varying from 0.992 to 0.998 in the concentration range of 0.1-20 ng mL(-1). The method detection limits ranged from 0.1 to 0.5 ng mL(-1) in 1 mL of plasma and from 0.1 to 0.5 ng g(-1) in 1g of tissues. This procedure was successfully applied to the study of 3-OH-2,3',4,4',5-PeCB in rat plasma and liver samples after intraperitoneal injection (20 mg/kg) of 2,3',4,4',5-PeCB. 相似文献

A fast cleaving non-nucleosidic tetramethylrhodamine dye-labeled support has been developed for automated synthesis of double dye-labeled oligodeoxyribonucleotides in high yield. A mixture (1:1:2) of t-butylamine:methanol:water is used for cleavage and deprotection of dye-labeled oligodeoxyribonucleotides without any degradation or modification of dyes and nucleobases. The cleavage rate of oligodeoxyribonucleotides is significantly increased by using a diglycolate ester linkage instead of the commonly used succinate linkage. These double dye-labeled probes are used in PCR for real time detection of a specific PCR product. Using a 5'-exonuclease assay, detected on the ABI PRISM 7700 Sequence Detection System, there was no distinguishable difference in performance of probes synthesized using the dye-labeled support compared with traditional post-synthetic attachment of rhodamine. 相似文献

7-[(2,2-Dimethyl)propyl)]-1-methylxanthine (I, Lab code MX2/120) is a new potent antibronchospastic agent. A rapid and simple HPLC assay for I in guinea pig plasma has been developed. Compound I was extracted from plasma with dichloromethane by a solid-phase extraction procedure, after adding 1,3-dimethyl-7-pentylxanthine at a concentration of 5 μg/ml as the internal standard (I.S.). The extraction residue was redissolved in water—acetonitrile and chromatographed on a RP-18 reversed-phase column. The eluate was monitored by spectrophotometric detection at 280 nm. The method showed good linearity over the range 0.1–20 μg/ml (r = 0.9998) and is precise (C.V. × Student's T-TEST = 1.84%) and accurate (mean recovery ± limit of CONFIDENCE = 100.25 ± 0.34). The HPLC assay was successfully applied to the determination of the pharmacokinetic profile of I after intravenous and oral administration in guinea pigs. The main pharmacokinetic parameters are presented. 相似文献
