A 49-year-old patient with known tetralogy of Fallot for which an aortopulmonary anastomosis (Pott's shunt) had been performed 23 years previously, underwent simultaneous myocardial revascularization for severe coronary occlusive disease and total correction of his congenital anomaly. The operation and postoperative course were uneventful, and he made a full recovery. 相似文献

Intrinsic protein fluorescence may interfere with the visualization of proteins after SDS-polyacrylamide electrophoresis. In an attempt to analyze tear glycoproteins in gels, we ran tear samples and stained the proteins with a glycoprotein-specific fluorescent dye. The fluorescence detected was not limited to glycoproteins. There was strong intrinsic fluorescence of proteins normally found in tears after soaking the gels in 40% methanol plus 1-10% acetic acid and, to a lesser extent, in methanol or acetic acid alone. Nanograms of proteins gave visible native fluorescence and interfere with extrinsic fluorescent dye detection. Poly-L-lysine, which does not contain intrinsically fluorescent amino acids, did not fluoresce. 相似文献

Structure stability/activity relationships (SXR) of a new class of N,N-dichloroamine compounds were explored to improve antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans while maintaining aqueous solution stability. This study identified a new class of solution-stable and topical antimicrobial agents. These agents are sulfone-stabilized and possess either a quaternary ammonium or sulfonate appendages as a water solubilizing group. Several unique challenges were confronted in the synthesis of these novel compounds which are highlighted in the discussion. 相似文献

A study of bacterial surface oligosaccharides were investigated among
different strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to correlate structural features
essential for binding to the MAb 2C7. This epitope is widely expressed and
conserved in gonococcal isolates, characteristics essential to an effective
candidate vaccine antigen. Sample lipooligosaccharides (LOS), was prepared
by a modification of the hot phenol-water method from which de-O-acetylated
LOS and oligosaccharide (OS) components were analyzed by ES-MS-CID-MS and
ES-MSnin a triple quadrupole and an ion trap mass spectrometer,
respectively. Previously documented natural heterogeneity was apparent from
both LOS and OS preparations which was admixed with fragments induced by
hydrazine and mild acid treatment. Natural heterogeneity was limited to
phosphorylation and antenni extensions to the alpha-chain. Mild acid
hydrolysis to release OS also hydrolyzed the beta(1-->6) glycosidic
linkage of lipid A. OS structures were determined by collisional and
resonance excitation combined with MS and multistep MSn which provided
sequence information from both neutral loss, and nonreducing terminal
fragments. A comparison of OS structures, with earlier knowledge of MAb
binding, enzyme treatment, and partial acid hydrolysis indicates a generic
overlapping domain for 2C7 binding. Reoccurring structural features include
a Hepalpha(1-->3)Hepbeta(1-->5)KDO trisaccharide core branched on the
nonreducing terminus (Hep-2) with an alpha(1-->2) linked GlcNAc
(gamma-chain), and an alpha-linked lactose (beta-chain) residue. From the
central heptose (Hep-1), a beta(1-->4) linked lactose (alpha-chain),
moiety is required although extensions to this residue appear unnecessary.

New topical anti-infectives comprised of N,N-dichloro-β,β-disubstituted taurines [Tetrahedron Lett. 2008, 49, 2193; Biorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 2009, 19, 196] have been examined for structure–stability relationships (SSR) based upon various alkyl, heteroalkyl and cycloalkyl β-substitutions. These substitutions affect order-of-magnitude changes in the aqueous stability of these N,N-dichloroamines which can undergo Stieglitz rearrangement of alkyl groups under extremely mild conditions (H2O, pH 4–7, 0–20 mM acetate or phosphate buffer, 20–40 °C). This process produces β-ketosulfonic acids which function as substrates for chlorination by the N-chlorotaurines which leads to their further degradation. 相似文献

Protein and amino acid composition of silks from the cob weaver, Latrodectus hesperus (black widow) 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The silks from the cob weaving spider, Latrodectus hesperus (black widow), have been examined with the goal of expanding our understanding of the relationship between the protein structure and mechanical performance of these unique biomaterials. The scaffolding, dragline and inner egg case silks each appear to be distinct fibers based on mole percent amino acid composition and polypeptide composition. Further, we find that the amino acid composition of dragline and egg case silk are similar to the analogous silks produced by orb weaving spiders, while scaffolding silk may represent a novel silk. The black widow silks are comprised of multiple high molecular weight polypeptides, however, the egg case and scaffolding silks also contain some smaller polypeptides. 相似文献

Many structural, signaling, and adhesion molecules contain tandemly
repeated amino acid motifs. The alpha-actinin/spectrin/dystrophin
superfamily of F-actin-crosslinking proteins contains an array of triple
alpha-helical motifs (spectrin repeats). We present here the complete
sequence of the novel beta-spectrin isoform beta(Heavy)- spectrin (beta H).
The sequence of beta H supports the origin of alpha- and beta-spectrins
from a common ancestor, and we present a novel model for the origin of the
spectrins from a homodimeric actin-crosslinking precursor. The pattern of
similarity between the spectrin repeat units indicates that they have
evolved by a series of nested, nonuniform duplications. Furthermore, the
spectrins and dystrophins clearly have common ancestry, yet the repeat unit
is of a different length in each family. Together, these observations
suggest a dynamic period of increase in repeat number accompanied by
homogenization within each array by concerted evolution. However, today,
there is greater similarity of homologous repeats between species than
there is across repeats within species, suggesting that concerted evolution
ceased some time before the arthropod/vertebrate split. We propose a
two-phase model for the evolution of the spectrin repeat arrays in which an
initial phase of concerted evolution is subsequently retarded as each new
protein becomes constrained to a specific length and the repeats diverge at
the DNA level. This evolutionary model has general applicability to the
origins of the many other proteins that have tandemly repeated motifs.

Recent reports of dilatation and aneurysm formation in Dacron fabric grafts have prompted us to review our experience with 1040 patients who received Meadox-Cooley double-velour knitted grafts over a 47-month period. Bifurcation grafts were used in 398 patients with aorto-femoral occlusive disease and in 203 patients with aortoiliac occlusive disease. Straight tube grafts were implanted in 310 patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms. Small caliber straight tube grafts were used for femoral-femoral bypass in 112 patients. The remaining 17 patients received double-velour grafts for restoration of the renal (14) and superior mesenteric (3) artery circulation. In a review of patients, no dilatation or aneurysm formation was disclosed by clinical examination, sonography or aortography. 相似文献
