Selective acetalation of α,α-trehalose with ethyl or methyl isopropenyl ether and toluene-p-sulphonic acid in N,N-dimethylformamide gave the 4,6-isopropylidene acetal as the major product, isolated as its hexa-acetate 1 (38%). The gluco-galacto analogue 6 of α,α-trehalose was synthesized from 1 by the sequence: hydrolysis of the isopropylidene group with trifluoroacetic acid, mesylation of the resulting diol, benzoate displacement, and saponification of the product. Deacetylation of 1 followed by benzylation and hydrolysis of the acetal group furnished a hexa-O-benzyl derivative 9. Tosylation of the primary hydroxyl group in 9, treatment of the product with tetrabutylammonium fluoride in acetonitrile, and subsequent catalytic hydrogenolysis of the benzyl groups gave 6-deoxy-6-fluoro-α,α-trehalose (12). Compounds 6 and 12 and 6-deoxy-6-iodo-α,α-trehalose are substrates for cockchafer trehalase, but have very low Vmax values.  相似文献

Fucosyltransferases (FTs) and various glycosidases that are involved in the biosynthesis or degradation of SSEA-1 (Lex) antigens and their precursors in the CNS are developmentally regulated. In forebrain and cerebellum with lactosamine (LacNAc) as acceptor the FT activity was maximal at P15–P22, but with the glycolipid substrate paragloboside (nLc4) the maximal activity in cerebellum was obtained at P10–P15. The FT activity, with these substrates, was insensitive to N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) and the glycolipid product had an α1,3 linkage (Fuc to GlcNAc) suggesting similarities of the investigated enzyme to the cloned human and rat FT IV. However, the observation of different patterns of FT activity in isoelectrofocused fractions (pH 3.5–10) with different types of acceptors, and the differential expression of Lex containing glycolipids and glycoproteins during development strongly suggest the presence of more than one type of FT during development. Data on developmental expression of the hydrolytic enzymes, α-L-fucosidase, β-D-galactosidase and α-D-galactosidase, which can potentially hydrolyse SSEA-1 or its precursors, support the notion that SSEA-1 expression is the result of a dynamic balance between the activity of transferases and hydrolases. © 1998 Rapid Science Ltd  相似文献

Crude, Sephadex-filtered extracts of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) root nodules contained invertase (E.C. 3.2.1.26) activity with pH optima at 5.4 and 7.8, ,-trehalase (E.C. 3.2.1.28) activity with pH optima at 3.8 and 6.6, and maltase (E.C. 3.2.1.20) activity with a broad pH optimum between 4.5 and 5.0. Bacteroids and cytosol were separated using Percoll density gradients. Cellulase and pectinase were employed to separate protoplasts from the infected region from the nodule cortex, which remained intract. Assays of disaccharidases from these nodule fractions indicated the following localization of enzymes: (1) Bacteroids lack invertase activity (pH 5.4 and 7.8). (2) Much, if not most, of the invertase activity may be localized in the nodule cortex; this is especially likely for acid invertase. However, there was substantial invertase activity in cytosol from the infected region. (3) Most of the maltase activity (pH 5.0) and trehalase activity (pH 3.8 and 6.6) were localized in the cytosol. It is likely that most of these disaccharidase activities are in the cytosol of the infected region, in contrast to invertase. (4) Bacteroids contain maltase (pH 5.0) and trehalase (pH 3.8 and 6.6), but the amount of these enzyme activities was less than 15% of total activity in nodules. Bacteroids and nodule cortex were capable of in-vivo hydrolysis of [14C]trehalose and [14C]maltose. These disaccharides were also hydrolyzed by soybean roots and hypocotyls. Therefore, while ,-trehalose in soybean nodules is probably synthesized by the bacteroids, the capability for utilization of trehalose was not restricted to the bacteroids.Approved for publication as Journal Article 74–81 of the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center  相似文献

α,α-Trehalose is of interest because of its cryoprotective and antidessicant properties, and because it possesses various technical anomalies such as 13C NMR spectra that give misleading indications of intramolecular structural symmetry. It is a non-reducing disaccharide, with the glycosidic oxygen atom shared by the anomeric carbon atoms of the two glucose rings, and is therefore subject to a proposed ‘overlapping’ exo-anomeric effect. We report here a study of the electron density of trehalose with X-ray diffraction and quantum mechanics calculations, similar to a recent study of sucrose, also a non-reducing molecule. In particular we studied the electron density around the glycosidic linkage and the hydrogen bonding with both deformation density and Atoms in Molecules (AIM) analyses. A total of 129,952 single crystal X-ray intensity measurements were collected on α,α-trehalose dihydrate to a resolution of sin θ/λ = 1.18 Å−1 at 100 K and refined with an aspherical multipole model to a final agreement factor of R1 = 0.0160. Wavefunctions were calculated at three levels of theory. Redistribution of electron density due to anomeric effects was reduced in trehalose, compared to sucrose. Five new C-H?O hydrogen bonds were confirmed with bond critical points and bond paths from AIM analyses, as were the previously proposed O-H?O hydrogen bonds.  相似文献

Immobilisation of trehalose phosphorylase from Schizophyllum commune by adsorption onto anion-exchange materials stabilised the enzyme activity at 30°C by approx. 35-fold. Immobilised and free enzymes showed similar pH-dependence of activity but different inactivation behavior above 30°C. A fixed-bed enzyme reactor produced ,-trehalose at a stable substrate conversion of 80% with a productivity of 2.6 g l–1 h–1 for 72 h. Inhibition of trehalose phosphorylase by phosphate limited the productivity of a direct conversion of starch into ,-trehalose.  相似文献

Lysine-based amphipathic nonapeptides, including homochiral peptides [Ac-(l-Lys-l-Lys-Xaa)3-NH2 (Xaa = Gly, Ala, Aib, Ac5c, or Ac6c) and Ac-(d-Lys-d-Lys-Aib)3-NH2], a heterochiral peptide [Ac-(l-Lys-d-Lys-Aib)3-NH2], and a racemic mixture of diastereomeric peptides [Ac-(rac-Lys-rac-Lys-Aib)3-NH2] were designed and synthesized to investigate the relationship between their preferred secondary structures and their antimicrobial activity. Peptide 5, [Ac-(l-Lys-l-Lys-Ac6c)3-NH2] formed a stable α-helical structure and exhibited strong activity against Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa).  相似文献

Summary The introduction of solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) has greatly facilitated the preparation of peptides containing proteinaceous amino acids. Less common, sterically hindered ,-dialkylamino acids, such as -methylalanine (MeA, aminoisobutyric acid, Aib), have proven a synthetic challenge for incorporation by this approach, especially when present in contiguous sequences. Solution protocols, utilizing highly reactive intermediates such as oxazalones, are generally used during the preparation of peptaibol antibiotics such as alamethicin, emerimicin, etc. which contain such contiguous sequences. Two recently developed coupling strategies (O-(7-azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate, HATU, and Fmoc-protected amino acid fluorides) allow peptides comprising contiguous sequences of ,-dialkylamino acids to be prepared using SPPS. The present study evaluates the relative merits of these two methods on a set of difficult peptides containing oligo-MeA sequences.  相似文献

Effects of cytokinins were studied on rotenone-sensitive NADH dehydrogenase in mitochondria from fresh potato tubers (Solarium tuberosum), in consideration of the operation of external and rotenone-insensitive internal NADH dehydrogenases that has not been fully accounted for in previous studies. In submitochondrial particles (smp), zeatin was only weakly active, and zeatin riboside (ZR) was inactive. Inhibition rates at 400 μM of isopentenyladenine (iP) and isopentenyladenosine (iPA) were 45% and 30%, respectively, and that of BA (BA) was 64%. In intact mitochondria, the inhibition by iP and BA significantly increased, I50 being 50 and 250 μM, respectively, but that by zeatin and iPA decreased. A structure–activity study showed that hydrophobic and steric factors are important for the activity. Cytokinins inhibited the electron flow via natural quinone more strongly than that via synthetic quinone. These results suggest that among the cytokinins the species that can regulate the electron transport is iP rather than its riboside or zeatin.  相似文献

Mouse B lymphocytes express several nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subtypes, their exact functions being not clearly understood. Here we show that α7 nAChR was present in about 60%, while α4β2 and α9(α10) nAChRs in about 10% and 20% of mouse spleen B lymphocytes, respectively; Balb/c and C57Bl/6 mice possessed different relative amounts of these nAChR subtypes. α4β2 and α7, but not α9(α10) nAChRs, were up-regulated upon B lymphocyte activation in vitro. Flow cytometry and sandwich ELISA studies demonstrated that α7 and α9(α10) nAChRs are coupled to CD40, whereas α4β2 nAChR is coupled to IgM. B lymphocytes of both α7(-/-) and β2(-/-) mice responded to anti-CD40 stronger than those of the wild-type mice, whereas the cells of β2(-/-) mice responded to anti-IgM worse than those of the wild-type or α7(-/-) mice. Inhibition of α7 and α9(α10) nAChRs with methyllicaconitine resulted in considerable augmentation of CD40-mediated B lymphocyte proliferation in cells of all genotypes; stimulation of α4β2 nAChRs with epibatidine increased the IgM-mediated proliferation of the wild-type and α7(-/-), but not β2(-/-) cells. Inhibition of α9(α10) nAChRs with α-conotoxin PeAI exerted weak stimulating effect on CD40-mediated proliferation. This nAChR subtype was up-regulated in α7(-/-) B-cells. α7 nAChRs were found recruited to immune synapses between human T and B lymphocytes, both of which produced acetylcholine. It is concluded that α7 nAChR fulfills inhibitory CD40-related mitogenic function, α4β2 nAChR produces a stimulatory IgM-related effect, while α9α10 nAChR is a "reserve" receptor, which partly compensates the absence of α7 nAChR in α7(-/-) cells. Acetylcholine is an additional mediator to modulate activation of interacting T and B lymphocytes.  相似文献
