Pulvinone and several 3-fluoro-4-morpholino substituted pulvinone derivatives were synthesized in five steps from a common precursor, phenyl acetic acid. Most of synthetic morpholine substituted pulvinones showed inhibitory activity against Esherichia coli. For the first time, the inhibition of pulvinone and its derivatives against Gram-negative bacteria was reported. 相似文献

N-Acetylepidaunosamine (3-acetamido-2,3,6-trideoxy-d-ribo-hexopyranose) was converted into the diethyl dithioacetal and this was cyclized with HgCi2, HgO, and MeOH, to give methyl 3-acetamido-2,3,6-trideoxy-α- and -β-d-ribo-hexofuranoside (4 and 5). These anomers were acetylated or (p-nitrobenzoyl)ated, and the esters were subjected to acetolysis, to afford 3-acetamido-1,5-di-O-acetyl-2,3,6-trideoxy-d-ribo-hexofuranose and 3-acetamido-1-O-acetyl-2,3,6-trideoxy-5-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-d-ribo-hexofuranose, respectively. Alternatively, compounds 4 and 5 were hydrolyzed to the free bases with barium hydroxide, and these were converted into the trifluoroacetamido derivatives which, on (p-nitrobenzoyl)ation and acetolysis, afforded 1-O-acetyl-2,3,6-trideoxy-5-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-3-(trifluoroacetamido)-d-ribo-hexofuranose. To prepare the corresponding daunosamine derivative, 2,3,6-trideoxy-3-(trifluoroacetamido)-l-lyxo-hexopyranose was converted into the diethyl dithioacetal, and this was cyclized in the same way, to afford methyl 2,3,6-trideoxy-3-(trifluoroacetamido)-α- and -β-l-lyxo-hexofuranoside. On (p-nitrobenzoyl)ation and acetolysis, both afforded 1-O-acetyl-2,3,6-trideoxy-5-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-3-(trifluoroacetamido)-l-lyxo-hexofuranose. 相似文献

Methyl α,β-D-ribofuranoside was p-nitrobenzoylated to give methyl tri-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-β-D-ribofuranoside (2),and this was treated with HBr in acetic acid to give tri- O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-β-D-ribofuranosyl bromide (3). Bromide 3 could be converted into 2,5-anhydro-3,4,6-tri-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-D-allononitrile (4) with Hg(CN)2, or hydrolyzed to 2,3,5-tri-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-D-ribose (5). On p-nitro- benzoylation, 5 gave tetra-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-β-D-ribofuranose (6). The synthesis of tri-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-α-β-D-xylofuranosyl bromide (11) started with methyl 3,5-O-isopropylidene-β-D-xyldfuranoside (7), which was p-nitrobenzoylated to give ester 8; this was then hydrolyzed, and the product p-nitrobenzoylated to give methyl tri-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-β-D-xylofuranoside (10) which, on treatment with HBr in CH2Cl2, afforded the desired bromide (11). Nucleophilic replacement with Hg(CN)2 afforded 2,5-anhydro-3,4,6-tri-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-D-gulononitrile (12). 相似文献

Subcultures of Pseudomonas putida R5-3 altered their plasmid DNA content in specific ways depending on the particular aromatic hydrocarbon utilized as the sole carbon source. Two indigenous plasmids, 115 and 95 kilobases (kb) in size, were observed in R5-3A, which was derived from R5-3 by growth on minimal medium containing p-methylbenzoate as the sole carbon source. When R5-3A was transferred to medium containing m-xylene or toluene, derivative strains were obtained in which the 95-kb plasmid was lost and a new plasmid of 50 or 60 kb appeared. Reversion to the original plasmid profile of R5-3A was observed when xylene- or toluene-grown cells were returned to medium containing p-methylbenzoate. Restriction enzyme analysis and Southern blot hybridizations of total plasmid DNA indicated deletions and rearrangements of DNA restriction fragments in the derivatives maintained on m-xylene and toluene when compared with the original R5-3A. In the derivatives which retrieved the original plasmid profile, the restriction enzyme fragment pattern was identical to that in the original R5-3A, in that the fragments which were missing after growth on m-xylene or toluene were again present. Southern blot hybridizations revealed that part of the plasmid DNA lost from the original plasmid profile was integrated into the chromosomal DNA of xylene-grown R5-3B and that these plasmid fragments were associated with aromatic hydrocarbon metabolism. Hybridization with pathway-specific DNA fragments from the TOL plasmid pWWO indicated that this 95-kb plasmid contains DNA homologous to the meta-fission pathway genes. 相似文献

l-threo-2,3-Hexodiulosono-1,4-lactone 3-oxime 2-(phenylhydrazone) (1) gave 2-(p-bromophenyl)-4-(l-threo-1,2,3-trihydroxypropyl)-1,2,3-triazole-5-carboxylic acid 5,11-lactone (2), and this gave a diacetyl and a dibenzoyl derivative. On treatment of 2 with liquid ammonia, methylamine, or dimethylamine, the corresponding triazole-5-carboxamides (5–7) were obtained. Periodate oxidation of 5 gave 2-(p-bromophenyl)-4-formyl-1,2,3-triazole-5-carboxamide (10), and, on reduction, 10 gave 2-(p-bromophenyl)-4-(hydroxymethyl)-1,2,3-triazole-5-carboxamide, characterized as its monoacetate. Condensation of 10 with phenylhydrazine gave the triazole hydrazone. Acetonation of 2 gave the isopropylidene derivative. Reaction of 2 with HBr-HOAc gave 4-(l-threo-2-O-acetyl-3-bromo-1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-2-(p-bromophenyl)-1,2,3-triazole-5-carboxylic acid 5,11-lactone. Similar treatment of 1 with HBr-HOAc gave 5-O-acetyl-5-bromo-6-deoxy-l-threo-2,3-hexodiulosono-1,4-lactone 3-oxime 2-(phenylhydrazone). This was converted into 4-(l-threo-2-O-acetyl-3-bromo-1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-2-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole-5-carboxylic acid 5,11-lactone on treatment with boiling acetic anhydride. On reaction of 1 with benzoyl chloride in pyridine, dehydrative cyclization occurred, with the formation of 4-(l-threo-2,3-dibenzoyloxy-1-hydroxypropyl)-2-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole-5-carboxylic acid 5,11-lactone, which was converted into the amide on treatment with ammonia. 相似文献

6-Deoxy-2,3,5-tri-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-β-d-allo- and -α-l-talo-furanosyl bromide (6 and 11) have been synthesized from methyl 2,3-O-isopropylidene-β-d-ribo-pentodialdo-1,4-furanoside (1). Treatment of 1 with methyl Grignard reagent, followed by (p-nitrobenzoyl)ation, afforded two 5-epimers, methyl 6-deoxy-2,3-O-isopropylidene-5-O-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-β-d-allo- and -α-l-talo-furanosides (3 and 8) which were fractionally recrystallized. The l-talo isomer (8) separated first, and was treated with acid to remove the isopropylidene group, the product (p-nitrobenzoyl)ated, and the ester reacted with hydrogen bromide in acetic acid, to afford crystalline compound 11. The mother liquor from the fractional recrystallization was treated with acid, whereby methyl 6-deoxy-5-O-p-nitrobenzoyl)-d-allofuranoside was isolated. It was (p-nitrobenzoyl)ated, and the ester treated with hydrogen bromide in acetic acid, to afford crystalline bromide 6. 相似文献

In this report, stereospecific structural and dynamic features in DNA are studied using the site-directed spin labeling technique. A stable nitroxide radical, 1-oxyl-4-bromo-2,2,5,5-tetramethylpyrroline (R5a), was attached postsynthetically to phosphorothioates that were chemically introduced, one at a time, at five sites of a DNA duplex. The two phosphorothioate diastereomers (Rp or Sp) were separated, and nitroxide rotational motions were monitored using electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. The resulting spectra vary according to diastereomer identity and location of the labeling site, with Rp-R5a spectra effectively reporting on local DNA structural features and Sp-R5a spectra sensing variations in local DNA motions. This establishes Rp- and Sp-R5a as unique probes for investigating nucleic acids in a site- and stereospecific manner, which may aid studies of stereospecific DNA/protein interactions. In addition, weighted averages of individual Rp and Sp spectra match those of R5a attached to mixed diastereomers. This suggests that R5a linked to mixed diastereomers reports on the composite behaviors of Rp- and Sp-R5a and is useful in initial probing of the DNA local environment. This work advances understanding of R5a/DNA coupling, and is a key step forward in developing a nucleotide-independent spectroscopic probe for studying nucleic acids. 相似文献

MiRNAs are small non-coding molecules, which can regulate a huge number of genes. Based on bioinformatics analysis, we found a target site in the 3′UTR of BmSer-1 for binding bmo-miR-3377-5p. By using semi-quantitative RT-PCR, we detected that miR-3377-5p and BmSer-1 were both more highly expressed in the middle silk gland than in other tissues of 3-day-old fifth-instar Bombyx mori larvae, implying that there is a spatiotemporal condition for miR-3377-5p regulating on BmSer-1. To confirm this prediction, a BmSer-13′UTR recombinant luciferase reporter pGL3.0 [A3-luc-BmSer-1-3′UTR-SV40] and pri-bmo-miR-3377-5p expression pcDNA3.0 [ie1-egfp-pri-bmo-miR-3377-5p-SV40] were constructed and co-transfected into B. mori ovary cells (BmN cells). The results showed that miR-3377-5p suppressed the expression of BmSer-1 significantly (P < .001). When BmN cells were co-transfected by an artificial inhibitor together with a miR-3377-5p expression vector and a BmSer-1-3′UTR recombinant plasmid, BmSer-1 expression increased significantly (P < .05), indicating that the inhibitor was active against miR-3377-5p, and expression of BmSer-1 was recovered. Moreover, we injected miR-3377-5p expression plasmid and bmo-miR-3377-5p inhibitor into 3-day-old fifth-instar larvae. At 36 h post-injection, silk glands were collected for total RNA extraction. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed that miR-3377-5p down-regulated the expression of BmSer-1 in vivo, while there was no significant difference inhibitor treatment group compared with NC. Thus, we conclude that miR-3377-5p down-regulated the expression of BmSer-1. Our results provide insight for understanding the function of miRNAs and the regulation network of silk protein genes. 相似文献

ContextSerious health risks have been connected to ongoing, escalating exposure to environmental toxins and one of them is acrylamide (ACR), an organic compound. Although there are many published reports on ACR toxicity, limited information is available regarding the use of two potential antioxidants against ACR-instigated reproductive toxicity.AimsThe study focused on investigating the protective effects of vitamin C and 5-ASA against ACR-incited reproductive toxicity.MethodsA total of 50 male mice aged 4 weeks old were treated for 90 days with different concentrations either of ACR or ACR and vitamin C or ACR and 5- ASA or ACR, vitamin C, and 5- ASA.Key resultsACR significantly reduced serum testosterone level (p = 0.0037), sperm concentration (p = 0.0004), and percentage of sperm motility (p = 0.003), as well as increased sperm abnormality; head (p = 0.0058), tail (p = 0.001), and midpiece (p = 0.0339). Besides, the weight (p = 0.0006) and length (p = 0.0105) of testes, as well as weight (p = 0.0001) and length (p = 0.0021) of epididymis were decreased along with atrophy of seminiferous tubules of the testis, and disintegration of the tubular epithelium of epididymis on ACR exposed mice which were improved by vitamin C and 5-ASA administration.ConclusionsVitamin C and 5-ASA can potentially mitigate the negative effects of ACR on male reproduction; however, combined application is recommended for better performance.ImplicationsIn Bangladesh, this work is anticipated to address the health benefits of vitamin C and 5-ASA, particularly in improving the reproductive health of males against ACR toxicity. 相似文献

Here a series of 2-butyl-4-chloroimidazole based substituted piperazine-thiosemicarbazone hybrids were designed by combining three different pharmacophoric fragments in single molecular architecture. 2-Butyl-4-chloro-1-(3-(4-substituted)piperazin-1-yl)propyl)-1H-imidazole-5-carbaldehydes (4a–p) prepared by reacting carboxaldehyde 2 with N-alkyl piperazines 3a–p which were condensed with thiosemicarbazine to give desired compounds 5a–p in very good yields. Among all sixteen compounds screened for in vitro antimycobacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB), two compounds (E)-2-((2-butyl-4-chloro-1-(3-(4-(o-tolyl) piperazin-1-yl)propyl)-1H-imidazol-5-yl)methylene)hydrazinecarbothioamide 5e and (E)-2-((2-butyl-4-chloro-1-(3-(4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazin-1-yl)propyl)-1H-imidazol-5-yl)methylene) hydrazine carbothioamide 5f were found to be the most potent antitubercular agents (MIC: 3.13 μg/mL) with low toxicity profile. 相似文献

Cysteine protease B (CPB) can be targeted by reversible covalent inhibitors that could serve as antileishmanial compounds. Here, sixteen dipeptidyl nitrile derivatives were synthesized, tested against CPB, and analyzed using matched molecular pairs to determine the effects of stereochemistry and p-phenyl substitution on enzyme inhibition. The compound (S)-2-(((S)-1-(4-bromophenyl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)amino)-N-(1-cyanocyclopropyl)-3-phenylpropanamide (5) was the most potent CPB inhibitor (pKi = 6.82), which was also selective for human cathepsin B (pKi < 5). The inversion of the stereochemistry from S to R was more detrimental to potency when placed at the P2 position than at P3. The p-Br derivatives were more potent than the p-CH3 and p-OCH3 derivatives, probably due to intermolecular interactions with the S3 subsite. 相似文献

This study was designed to determine whether prior administration of inducers of rat uterine ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), such as 1-(o-chlorophenyl)-1-(p-chlorophenyl)-2,2,2-trichloroethane (o,p′DDT), estradiol-17β (E2), or tamoxifen, inhibits the elevation of ODC by subsequently administered o,p′ DDT or estradiol-17β. o,p′ DDT (10 mg/day) was injected for 2 days to ovariectomized rats. One or two days later, when the levels of ODC returned to basal levels, o,p′ DDT (10 mg) and E2 (0.05 μg) were administered intraperitoneally and, 6 or 5 h after these injections, uterine ODC was analyzed. The pretreatment with o,p′ DDT almost entirely blocked the induction of ODC by E2 or o,p′ DDT. In another experiment, pretreatment with o,p′ DDT for 5 or 6 days eliminated the induction of ODC after injection of o,p′ DDT on Day 7. Similarly, the treatment of rats with the antiestrogen-tamoxifen (0.1 mg/day) for 4 days completely inhibited the subsequent elevation of ODC by either E2 or o,p′ DDT administered on the fifth day. However, attempts to block the E2-mediated elevation of ODC by prior treatment with E2 yielded variable results. Two possibilities were considered to attempt to explain the mechanism of inhibition of induction of ODC by o,p′ DDT and tamoxifen: (a) induction of hepatic monooxygenase by these compounds, resulting in increased metabolism of the subsequently administered o,p′ DDT and E2 into biologically less active components; (b) involvement of putrescine, the product of ODC action, in inhibiting ODC formation at the pretranslational level or at the post-translational level. It appears unlikely that the o,p′ DDT- and tamoxifen-mediated inhibition of ODC induction was due to an increase in hepatic biotransformation of o,p′ DDT and E2. Pretreatment with tamoxifen or E2 did not appear to induce the formation of hepatic microsomal cytochrome P-450, a component of the monooxygenase system. Furthermore, pretreatment with 2,2-bis-(p-chlorophenyl)-1,1-dichloroethylene (a compound with a structure similar to o,p′ DDT), which is not estrogenic but like o,p′ DDT elevates hepatic monooxygenase activity, did not inhibit E2-or o,p′ DDT-mediated induction of uterine ODC. Concerning the possibility of putrescine inhibitory action, our observations that uterine diamine oxidase activity is negligible and that o,p′ DDT administration has no effect on this enzymatic activity suggested that elevation of ODC may result in higher levels of uterine putrescine or spermidine and spermine. The finding that the administration of putrescine to ovariectomized rats inhibited uterine ODC induction by o, p′ DDT supports the treatise that inhibition of ODC elevation after initial induction of ODC by antiestrogens and o,p′ DDT is due to putrescine- or polyamine-mediated inhibition of ODC. The possible mechanism of such product inhibition of ODC is disucssed. 相似文献

Cytochrome b-559 photooxidation in the presence of carbonyl cyanide p-trifluorometh-oxyphenylhydrazone and 2,5-dibromo-3-methyl-6-isopropyl-p-benzoquinone or p-benzoquinone in three non-photosynthetic mutants of Chlamydomonas reinhardtiStudies of absorbance changes related to the cytochrome b-559 photooxidation induced by FCCP, with and without addition of 3-p-chlorophenyl-1, 1-dimethylurea (CMU), DBMIB or p-benzoquinone, in whole cells and in chloroplast fragments of Chlamydomonas reinhardti, were carried out. In addition to the wild type, three strains of non-photosynthetic mutants were used: Fl 5, which lacks P 700; Fl 9 and Fl 15, which are deficient in bound cytochrome c-553 and in cytochrome b-563.In the presence of FCCP, whole cells and chloroplast fragments of the four strains showed a System II-dependent photooxidation of cytochrome b-559. This photooxidation was inhibited by CMU but it occurred again in presence of FCCP, CMU and DBMIB. In chloroplast fragments, cytochrome b-559 photooxidation was also inhibited by an excess of FCCP; it was recovered, likewise, by addition of DBMIB. In whole cells, the highest measured redox changes were: 1 μmol oxidized cytochrome b-559 per 1 mmol chlorophyll, corresponding approximately to about one seventh (wild type, Fl 5) or one fifth (Fl 9, Fl 15) of the total amount of this cytochrome.Another kind of cytochrome b-559 photooxidation, CMU-insensitive, also occurred in the mutants Fl 9 and Fl 15 and in the wild type, but not in the mutant Fl 5. This latter kind of photooxidation was observed with chloroplast fragments in the presence of FCCP and CMU and also with whole cells in the presence of FCCP, CMU and p-benzoquinone. These reactions can be attributed to the Photosystem I; they do not require the intervention of the cytochrome c-553.A high-potential form of cytochrome b-559, hydroquinone-reducible, was involved in these two kinds of photooxidation. In addition, a lower potential form, reducible only by ascorbate, appeared to be able to interfere also.An interpretation is attempted, taking into consideration the various effects of FCCP and DBMIB, at different concentrations, on photosynthetic electron transport. 相似文献

Mouse monoclonal antibodies were generated against dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol- or pinoresinol-p-aminohippuric acid (pAHA)-bovine serum albumin (BSA) conjugate as probes that specifically react with 8-5′ or 8-8′ linked structure of lignin in plant cell walls. Hybridoma clones were selected that produced antibodies that positively reacted with dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol- or pinoresinol-pAHA–BSA and negatively reacted with pAHA–BSA and guaiacylglycerol-beta-guaiacyl ether-pAHA–BSA conjugates containing 8-O-4′ linkage. Eight clones were established for each antigen and one of each clone that positively reacted with wood sections was selected. The specificity of these antibodies was examined by competitive ELISA tests using various lignin dimers with different linkages. The anti-dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol antibody reacted specifically with dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol and did not react with other model compounds containing 8-O-4′, 8-8′, or 5-5′ linkages. The anti-pinoresinol antibody reacted specifically with pinoresinol and syringaresinol and did not react with the other model compounds containing 8-O-4′, 8-5′, or 5-5′ linkages. The antibodies also did not react with dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol acetate or pinoresinol acetate, indicating that the presence of free phenolic or aliphatic hydroxyl group was an important factor in their reactivity. In sections of Japanese cypress (Chamaecyparis obtusa), labeling by the anti-dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol antibody was found in the secondary walls of phloem fibers and in the compound middle lamellae, and secondary walls of tracheids. Weak labeling by the anti-pinoresinol antibody was found in secondary walls of phloem fibers and secondary walls and compound middle lamellae of developed tracheids. These labelings show the localization of 8-5′ and 8-8′ linked structure of lignin in the cell walls. 相似文献

d-Galacto-d-mannan fractions were isolated from six common Canadian lichens having ascomycetous mycosymbionts, namely Parmelia sulcata, Stereocaulon paschale, Peltigera aphthosa, Letharia vulpina, Actinogyra muehlenbergii, and an Usnea sp. Their chemical structures were compared with each other and those of six species previously investigated; only Parmelia sulcata and Cetraria islandica (Iceland moss) contained galactomannans of closely related structures. The structural diversity depends on substituents on the (1→6)-linked α-d-mannopyranosyl main-chains. The side-chains occur as monosubstituents at O-2 or O-4 or as disubstituents at O-2,4. Frequently, the main-chain units are unsubstituted. Thus far, eight types of substitution have been recognized (1–8) in which β-d-Galp is linked (1→4), α-d-Galp and α-d-Manp (1→2), and β-d-Galf (1→4). 相似文献

Background
A feature of the Asian Indian phenotype is low birth weight with increased adult type 2 diabetes risk. Most populations show consistent associations between low birth weight and adult type 2 diabetes. Recently, two birth weight-lowering loci on chromosome 3 (near CCNL1 and ADCY5) were identified in a genome-wide association study, the latter of which is also a type 2 diabetes locus. We therefore tested the impact of these genetic variants on birth weight and adult glucose/insulin homeostasis in a large Indian birth cohort.Methodology/Principal Findings
Adults (n = 2,151) enrolled in a birth cohort (established 1969-73) were genotyped for rs900400 (near CCNL1) and rs9883204 (ADCY5). Associations were tested for birth weight, anthropometry from infancy to adulthood, and type 2 diabetes related glycemic traits. The average birth weight in this population was 2.79±0.47 kg and was not associated with genetic variation in CCNL1 (p = 0.87) or ADCY5 (p = 0.54). Allele frequencies for the ‘birth weight-lowering’ variants were similar compared with Western populations. There were no significant associations with growth or adult weight. However, the ‘birth weight-lowering’ variant of ADCY5 was associated with modest increase in fasting glucose (β 0.041, p = 0.027), 2-hours glucose (β 0.127, p = 0.019), and reduced insulinogenic index (β -0.106, p = 0.050) and 2-hour insulin (β -0.058, p = 0.010).Conclusions
The low birth weight in Asian Indians is not even partly explained by genetic variants near CCNL1 and ADCY5 which implies that non-genetic factors may predominate. However, the ‘birth-weight-lowering’ variant of ADCY5 was associated with elevated glucose and decreased insulin response in early adulthood which argues for a common genetic cause of low birth weight and risk of type 2 diabetes. 相似文献20.
Iridoid glycosides, 2′,3′,6′-tri-O-acetyl-4′-O-trans-p-(O-β-d-glucopyranosyl)coumaroyl-7-ketologanin (1), 2′-O-caffeoylloganic acid (2), 2′-O-p-hydroxybenzoylloganic acid (3), 2′-O-trans-p-coumaroylloganic acid (4), and 2′-O-cis-p-coumaroylloganic acid (5), were isolated from whole plants of Gentiana loureirii along with six known iridoids, 7-ketologanin (6), loganin (7), loganic acid (8), sweroside, boonein, and isoboonein, and three other known compounds. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic means and chemical correlations. The isolated iridoids were evaluated for antibacterial and antioxidant activities, but were either inactive or very weakly active. 相似文献
