In this study, various proteomics-based methods were utilized to examine the 14-3-3 protein family in Arabidopsis thaliana. A protein extract was prepared from an Arabidopsis hypocotyl suspension culture and analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting with a 14-3-3 monoclonal antibody that recognizes multiple Arabidopsis isoforms. Protein spots that cross-reacted with the monoclonal antibody as well as the surrounding spots were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography in conjunction with electrospray-tandem mass spectrometry. Nine separate spots contained 14-3-3s and each spot contained multiple 14-3-3 isoforms. Every isoform observed was verified by the identification of at least one isoform-specific peptide. Further analysis by mass spectrometry revealed that the isoforms Chi, Upsilon, Omega, Phi, and Lambda were acetylated on their N termini and no non-acetylated N termini were recovered. These data, together with the distribution of isoforms and the confirmation that 14-3-3s are not complexed during urea denaturing isoelectric focusing, supports the conclusion that Arabidopsis 14-3-3s are acetylated in vivo and are significantly affected by other post-translational modifications. 相似文献

4'-Azaflavone (=2-(pyridin-4-yl)-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one; 4) and 3-[(pyridin-4-yl)methyl]-4'-azaflavone (5) were synthesized by a simple environmentally friendly microwave-assisted one-pot method through the cyclization of 3-hydroxy-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(pyridin-4-yl)propan-1-one (1), (E)-2'-hydroxy-4-azachalcone (2; chalcone=1,3-diphenylprop-2-en-1-one), and 2'-hydroxy-2-[(hydroxy)(pyridin-4-yl)methyl]-4'-azachalcone (3) under solventless conditions using silica-supported NaHSO(4), followed by treatment with base. In addition, N-alkyl-substituted 4'-azaflavonium bromides 6 and 7 were prepared from compounds 4 and 5, respectively. The antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of compounds 1-7 were tested. The N-alkyl-substituted 4'-azaflavonium bromides 6 and 7 showed high antimicrobial activity against the Gram-positive bacteria and the fungus tested, with MIC values close to those of reference antimicrobials ampicilline and fluconazole. The alkylated compounds 6 and 7 also showed a good antioxidant character in the two antioxidant methods, DPPH (=1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical-scavenging and ferric reducing/antioxidant power (FRAP) tests. 相似文献

The asymmetric total syntheses of (R)-(+)- and (S)-(-)-umbelactone were achieved by using the Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation reaction to generate the stereogenic center and a ring-closing metathesis (RCM) for the formation of the lactone structure. Starting from 3-methyl-2-buten-1-ol, the asymmetric total synthesis was achieved in an efficient 6-step protocol with an overall yield of 16%. 相似文献

The direct separation of the enantiomers of 1-(α-aminoarylmethyl)-2-naphthol, 1-(α-aminoalkyl)-2-naphthol, 2-(α-aminoarylmethyl)-1-naphthol analogs, and 2-(1-amino-2-methylpropyl)-1-naphthol) was performed on a newly developed chiral stationary phase containing isopropyl carbamate-cyclofructan6 as chiral selector, with n-heptane/alcohol/trifluoroacetic acid as mobile phase. The effects of the mobile-phase composition, the nature and concentration of the alcoholic and acidic modifiers, and the structures of the analytes on the retention and resolution were investigated. In some cases, separations were carried out at constant mobile-phase compositions in the temperature range 5-40°C. Thermodynamic parameters and T(iso) values were calculated from plots of ln k' or ln α versus 1/T. -Δ(ΔH°) ranged from 2.8 to 3.2 kJ mol(-1) , -Δ(ΔS°) from 7.7 to 10.1 J mol(-1) K(-1) , and -Δ(ΔG°) from 0.2 to 0.5 kJ mol(-1) . It was found that the enantioseparations were enthalpy driven. The sequence of elution of the stereoisomers determined in some cases was (R) < (S). 相似文献

Analytical CE and HPLC methods were developed for the chiral separation of halogen-substituted 3-phenyl-3-(2-pyridyl)propylamines 1-4 (1: 3-(4-fluorophenyl) approximately, 2: 3-(3,4-difluorophenyl) approximately, 3: 3-(4-chlorophenyl) approximately, 4: 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl) approximately ), 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-(2-thiazolyl)propylamine (5), and 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-(1-benzylimidazol-2-yl)propylamine (6), which are building blocks for the preparation of very potent arpromidine-type histamine H(2) receptor agonists. All amines were enantioseparated by CE with resolutions of at least 1.8 using alpha-, beta-, or gamma-cyclodextrin (CD) as chiral selectors. With heparin as buffer additive for CE the optical antipodes of 1-4 and 6 were separated with resolutions > or = 1.8. On RP-18 columns the separation of the (+)-(S)-acetylmandelic acid amides of racemic 2 (R = 0.9, alpha = 1.07) and the thioureas prepared by addition of 6 to 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyl isothiocyanate (R = 2.0, alpha = 1.20) was successful, whereas the diastereomeric ureas prepared from 3 and (+)-(S)-1-(1-naphthyl)ethyl isocyanate could not be resolved. Separation of the diastereomeric isoindoles prepared from 1-5, o-phthaldialdehyde and 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-1-thio-beta-D-glucopyranoside was achieved on a RP-18 phase (R > or = 0.4, a > or = 1.02). Direct separation of the enantiomers of 3 and 4 was achieved on a Cyclobond I column (R > or = 0.9, alpha > or = 1.07). alpha- and beta-CD were also useful as mobile phase additives for HPLC (3 and 4: RP-18 column, beta-CD, R > or = 0.4, alpha > or = 1.03; 3: RP-18 column, alpha-CD: R = 0.5, alpha = 1.04). 相似文献

3-Amino-5-phenyl (or 5-methyl)-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-ones, which are chiral precursors of anti-respiratory syncytial virus active agents, were resolved on three different chiral stationary phases (CSPs) based on (+)-(18-crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid or (3,3'-diphenyl-1,1'-binaphthyl)-20-crown-6. Among the three CSPs, the CSP that is based on (3,3'-diphenyl-1,1'-binaphthyl)-20-crown-6 and containing residual silanol group-protecting n-octyl groups on the silica surface was found to be most effective with the use of 80% ethanol in water containing perchloric acid (10 mM) and ammonium acetate (1.0 mM) as a mobile phase. The separation factors (α) and resolutions (R(S) ) were in the range of 1.90-3.21 and 2.79-5.96, respectively. From the relationship between the analyte structure and the chromatographic resolution behavior, the chiral recognition mechanism on the CSP based on (+)-(18-crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid was proposed to be different from that on the CSP based on (3,3'-diphenyl-1,1'-binaphthyl)-20-crown-6. In addition, the chromatographic resolution behavior of the most effective CSP was investigated as a function of the composition of aqueous mobile phase containing organic and acidic modifier and ammonium acetate. 相似文献

Near-infrared (near-IR) Fourier transform vibrational circular dichroism (FT-VCD) spectroscopy has been used to monitor the epimerization of (S)-(+)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol (S-DDM). The near-IR-VCD spectra display clear isolated VCD bands at the range of 4700-5050 cm(-1) resulting from the OH stretch-bend combination bands of S-DDM, which were found to decrease in intensity with increasing reaction time. The near-IR-VCD spectra of 10 reference samples obtained were subjected to partial least-squares (PLS) regression analysis, and the results were used to build predictive models for enantiomeric excess (EE) determination. Multivariate regression was carried out on three different sets of spectra, corresponding to the epimerization of S-DDM in three different solvents: methylcyclohexane, carbon tetrachloride and tetrahydrofuran. The effects of solvent in DDM epimerization are discussed in terms of the relative stabilization of the reaction intermediate of the DDM epimerization reaction. The results of these near-IR-VCD studies for the determination of EE highlights the potential of VCD for in situ real-time process monitoring of the reaction kinetics of chiral molecules in solution. 相似文献

The effects of the natural compound 2-methoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone, isolated from the leaves of Impatiens glandulifera and the synthetic compounds 2-propoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone and 2-isopropoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone on ecdysone 20-monooxygenase (E-20-M) activity were examined in three insect species. Homogenates of wandering stage third instar larvae of Drosophila melanogaster, or abdomens from adult female Aedes aegypti, or fat body or midgut from fifth instar larvae of Manduca sexta were incubated with radiolabelled ecdysone and increasing concentrations (from 1 x 10(-8) to 1 x 10(-3) M) of the three compounds. All three compounds were found to inhibit in a dose-dependent fashion the E-20-M activity in the three insect species. The concentration of these compounds required to elicit a 50% inhibition of this steroid hydroxylase activity in the three insect species examined ranged from approximately 3 x 10(-5) to 7 x 10(-4) M. 相似文献

Axially chiral thioamide ligands L5, L6, L8, L11, and bis(thioamide) ligand L13 were prepared from the reaction of (S)-(-)-1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-diamine with acyl chlorides and phosphorus pentasulfide (P2S5). The catalytic asymmetric 1,4-addition of diethylzinc to alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones was examined using this novel chiral ligand system with 28-73% ee in moderate to good yields. 相似文献

The very first application of supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) on enantioseparation of alcohols is discussed. Resolution of three chiral alcohols (trans-2-chloro-cyclohexanol, trans-2-bromo-cyclohexanol, and trans-2-iodo-cyclohexanol) were performed by partial complexation with (-)-O,O'-dibenzoyl-(2R,3R)-tartaric acid monohydrate (DBTA). DBTA formed diastereomeric complexes with all S,S-enantiomers stable enough to extract the unreacted alcohols with supercritical carbon dioxide. Resolution efficiency increased with the size of halogen substituents, and by the proper selection of molar ratio, pure (-)-R,R-trans-2-iodo-cyclohexanol (ee > 99%, yield: 39%) or (+)-S,S-trans-2-iodo-cyclohexanol (ee = 98%, yield: 8%) were prepared in one process step. Achieved resolution efficiency values were much higher in all resolution procedures than in any other known enantioseparation of these racemic compounds. The developed method offers an environmentally friendly, efficient alternative of currently applied resolution processes, also on a preparative scale. 相似文献

Each postnatal hair follicle (HF) perpetually goes through three phases: anagen, catagen, and telogen. The molecular signals that orchestrate the follicular transition between phases are still largely unknown. Our previous study shows that the keratinocyte specific Smad4 knockout mice exhibit progressive alopecia due to the mutant HFs failure to undergo programmed regression. To investigate the detailed molecular events controlling this process, the protein profiles of Smad4 mutant and control epidermal and HF keratinocytes were compared using 2-D difference gel electrophoresis (2-D DIGE) proteomic analysis. Eighty-six differentially expressed protein spots were identified by MALDI-TOF/TOF MS or ESI-MS/MS as 72 proteins, of which 29 proteins were found to be changed during the anagen-catagen transition of HFs in Smad4 mutants compared with the controls. The differentially expressed proteins represent a wide spectrum of functional classes such as keratin, the cytoskeleton, cellular growth and differentiation, ion combination and transfer, protein enzymes. Notably, we found that the 14-3-3sigma protein together with the 14-3-3zeta and 14-3-3beta proteins were significantly down-regulated only in wild-type keratinocytes but not in Smad4 mutant keratinocytes during the catagen phase, suggesting that increased expression of 14-3-3 proteins might contribute to the blockade of catagen initiation in Smad4 deficient HFs. 相似文献

Bioassay-guided fractionation of the stems of Spatholobus suberectus led to the isolation of procyanidin B4 (= (+)-catechin-(4-->8)-(-)-epicatechin) (1) and (+)-catechin-(4-->8)-(+)-catechin-(4-->8)-(-)-epicatechin (2). These compounds, isolated before from other sources, were found to be highly potent inhibitors of DNA-topoisomerase-II (Topo-II)-mediated KDNA decatenation, with IC50 values of 22.5+/-2.3 and 21.9+/-2.2 nM, resp. 相似文献

Three novel chiral packing materials for high-performance liquid chromatography were prepared by covalently binding of (2S)-N-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)-2-[(4-chloro-3,5-dinitrophenyl)carbonylamino]propan-amide (7), (2S)-N-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)-2-[(4-chloro-3,5-dinitrophenyl)carbonylamino]-4-methylpentanamide (8), and (2S)-N-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)-2-[(4-chloro-3,5-dinitrophenyl)carbonyl-amino]-2-phenylacetamide (9) to aminopropyl silica. The resulting chiral stationary phases (CSPs 1-3) proved effective for the resolution of racemic 4-aryl-3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-pyrimidone derivatives (TR 1-14). The mechanism of their enantioselection, supported by the elution order of (S)-TR 13 and (R)-TR 13 and molecular modeling of the complex of the slower running (S)-TR 13 with CSP 1 is discussed. 相似文献

The rice α-amylase 3D promoter system, which is activated under sucrose-starved conditions, has emerged as a useful system for producing recombinant proteins. However, using rice as the production system for therapeutic proteins requires modifications of the N-glycosylation pattern because of the potential immunogenicity of plant-specific sugar residues. In this study, glyco-engineered rice were generated as a production host for therapeutic glycoproteins, using RNA interference (RNAi) technology to down-regulate the endogenous α-1,3-fucosyltransferase (α-1,3-FucT) and β-1,2-xylosyltransferase (β-1,2-XylT) genes. N-linked glycans from the RNAi lines were identified, and their structures were compared with those isolated from a wild-type cell suspension. The inverted-repeat chimeric RNA silencing construct of α-1,3-fucosyltransferase and β-1,2-xylosyltransferase (Δ3FT/XT)-9 glyco-engineered line with significantly reduced core α-1,3-fucosylated and/or β-1,2-xylosylated glycan structures was established. Moreover, levels of plant-specific α-1,3-fucose and/or β-1,2-xylose residues incorporated into recombinant human granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (hGM-CSF) produced from the N44 + Δ3FT/XT-4 glyco-engineered line co-expressing ihpRNA of Δ3FT/XT and hGM-CSF were significantly decreased compared with those in the previously reported N44-08 transgenic line expressing hGM-CSF. None of the glyco-engineered lines differed from the wild type with respect to cell division, proliferation or ability to secrete proteins into the culture medium. 相似文献

Ongoing interest in discovering new natural fragrance and flavor ingredients prompted us to examine a solvent extract of sulfurous-sweaty smelling Ruta chalepensis L. (Rutaceae) plant material more closely. Twenty-one sulfur-containing constituents of similar structures were identified by GC/MS techniques. Amongst them, 14 have never been described to occur in nature. The compounds 1-18 belong to a family of natural flavor and fragrance molecules having a 1,3-positioned O,S moiety in common. The identities of the natural constituents were confirmed by comparison with synthetic reference samples, and the organoleptic properties of the latter were studied. The relative and absolute configurations of the four stereoisomers of 4-methyl-3-sulfanylhexan-1-ol (5) were established by stereoselective synthesis. The natural isomers consisted of a 65 : 35 mixture of (3R,4S)-5 and (3S,4S)-5. 相似文献

Chiral pyrazoline amino acids (3aR,4S,6aR)-1a and (3aR,4S,6aR)-1b, and (3aS,6S,6aS)-2a and (3aS,6S,6aS)-2b, which are conformationally constrained analogues of glutamic and homoglutamic acid, respectively, were prepared via a strategy based on the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a nitrile imine to methyl N-Boc-3,4-didehydro-(S)-prolinate. The new 'amino acids' were tested for activity at ionotropic glutamate receptors. Solely the derivative (3aR,4S,6aR)-1a, which is structurally related to the previously described 4,5-dihydroisoxazole analogue (S)-CIP-A, turned out to be a potent and selective agonist for the AMPA receptors. The biological activity is due to the interaction with the orthosteric glutamate binding site. 相似文献

The binding of the enantiomers of indobufen (INDB) to human serum proteins was investigated using the racemic mixture or the pure (+)-S-enantiomer in a concentration range of 2.5-100.0 mg/L. In addition, the pharmacokinetics of free (unbound) and total INDB enantiomers were studied 1) following administration of a single 200 mg rac-INDB tablet to healthy volunteers, and 2) in obliterative atherosclerosis patients at steady state. The free fraction of INDB was obtained by ultrafiltration. Using the racemic mixture, the binding parameters of the two enantiomers were different, showing enantioselectivity in protein binding. The (-)-R-enantiomer was bound more strongly to human serum albumin, with association constant K = 11.95 +/- 0.98 x 10(5) M(-1) and n = 0.72 +/- 0.02 binding sites. The comparable data for the (+)-S-enantiomer were K = 4.65 +/- 0.02 x 10(5) M(-1), n = 0.92 +/- 0.01. When the binding of (+)-S-enantiomer was studied alone, the association constant K (2.10 +/- 0.18 x 10(5) M(-1)) was lower and the number of binding sites was increased, to n = 1.87 +/- 0.17. Competition occurred between the enantiomers, with the (-)-R-enantiomer displacing its antipode. The fraction of both enantiomers bound to serum proteins was 99.0%, which increased with decreasing initial concentration of the enantiomers. In healthy volunteers the (+)-S-enantiomer was eliminated faster than its (-)-R antipode, resulting in a lower AUC for the (+)-S-enantiomer. Significant differences were observed in the total INDB enantiomer concentrations. The mean unbound fraction of (-)-R- and (+)-S-INDB was 0.45% and 0.43%, respectively. Levels of the free (+)-S-enantiomer were higher than its (-)-R-antipode at steady state in patients with obliterative atherosclerosis who also took other drugs. The free enantiomer fraction increased to around 1% upon repeated administration. We conclude that the more rapid elimination of the (+)-S enantiomer is associated with its weaker binding to serum proteins. 相似文献

A systematic study of the characterization for racemic species of 4-hydroxy-2-pyrrolidone was undertaken. The melting point phase diagram of (R)- and (S)-4-hydroxy-2-pyrrolidone was determined by differential scanning calorimetry. The ternary phase diagram of (R)- and (S)-4-hydroxy-2-pyrrolidone with isopropanol was constructed at 15, 20, 25, and 35 degrees C. The crystalline nature of 4-hydroxy-2-pyrrolidone racemate was also characterized by means of comparison of solid-state FTIR spectra and powder X-ray diffraction patterns of the racemic mixture with those of one of the enantiomers. It is shown that (+/-)-4-hydroxy-2-pyrrolidone is a racemic conglomerate. The enthalpies of fusion of (R)-4-hydroxy-2-pyrrolidone and (+/-)-4-hydroxy-2-pyrrolidone and entropy of mixing of (R)- and (S)-4-hydroxy-2-pyrrolidone were calculated using the thermodynamic data. The solubility and supersolubility diagrams of (R)- and (S)-4-hydroxy-2-pyrrolidone in isopropanol were determined over a temperature range of 4-35 degrees C. The optical resolution of (+/-)-4-hydroxy-2-pyrrolidone was successfully achieved by preferential crystallization. 相似文献

Seven water-insoluble (1 --> 3)-beta-D-glucan fractions TM8-1 to TM8-7 with weight-average molecular mass M(w) ranged from 2.22 to 77.4 x 10(4) obtained from the sclerotia of Pleurotus tuber-regium were carboxymethylated to produce the water-soluble fractions CTM8-1 to CTM8-7 with M(w) ranged from 3.87 to 87.8 x 10(4). The degree of substitution (DS) of CTM8 fractions was analyzed by ir and elemental analysis (EA) to be 0.3-0.68. The M(w) and the intrinsic viscosity [eta] of the CTM8 fractions were measured by size-exclusion chromatography combined with multiangle laser light scattering (SEC-MALLS), MALLS, and viscometry in phosphate buffer solution (PBS) at 37 degrees C. The dependencies of [eta] and radius of gyration (z) (1/2) on M(w) for the CTM8 samples were found to be [eta] = (8.82 +/- 0.03) x 10(-3) M(w)(0.78 +/- 0.04) (cm(3) g(-1)) and (z) (1/2) = (3.09 +/- 0.05) x 10(-3) M(w)(0.75 +/- 0.06) (nm) in the M(w) range from 3.87 x 10(4) to 53.2 x 10(4). Based on current theories for wormlike chain model, the conformational parameters of the CTM8 were obtained to be 790 (nm(-1)) for M(L), 9.6 (nm) for q, which were higher than those of the native TM8 fractions, suggesting a more extended flexible chain of CTM8 in PBS. On the whole, the CTM8 fractions showed higher antitumor activity than their corresponding TM8 fractions. In view of data from molecular parameters and bioactivity, the antitumor activity of the CTM8 fractions may be correlated to its water solubility and relatively extended chain. 相似文献

The enantiomers of various 1-(alpha-aminobenzyl)-2-naphthol and 1-(aminoalkyl)-2-naphthol analogs were separated on cellulose-tris-3,5-dimethylphenyl carbamate-based chiral stationary phases (Chiralcel OD-H and Chiralcel OD-RH), using n-hexane/2-propanol/diethylamine or phosphate buffer/organic modifier mobile phases. The 3,5-dimethylphenyl carbamoylated cellulose columns were effective in both normal and rev ersed-phase modes. The effects of the mobile phase composition, the pH, the buffer concentration, and the structures of the substituents on the 2-naphthol on the enantioseparations were studied. The absolute configuration and elution sequence were determined for 1-(1-amino-2-methylpropyl)-2-naphthol: the elution sequence was S < R. 相似文献
