GENERAL ALPHA-N INDEX AND ITS APPLICATION .2. THE CORRELATION BETWEEN THE GENERAL ALPHA-N INDEX AND PHYSICAL-PROPERTIES OF NEUTRAL PHOSPHORUS-COMPOUNDS

The relationship between the alpha-N index and physical properties of neutral phosphorus extractants is studied. Using the general alpha-N index which could describe extractants with minute difference in structure, the good correlation between it and various physical properties of the neutral phosphorus extractants (e.g., densities, refractive index, shift ratio of paper chromatography and IR frequencies of bond P = O) is obtained. The result indicates that general alpha-N index is a good topological index of organic compounds.

A GLASSY-CARBON ELECTRODE MODIFIED BY DISPERSED ALPHA-ALUMINA AS AN ENHANCED ELECTROCHEMICAL DETECTOR IN LIQUID-CHROMATOGRAPHY FOR CYSTEINE AND GLUTATHIONE

The dispersion of alumina particles on a glassy-carbon surface serving as a modified electrode significantly enhances the amperometric detection of cysteine and glutathione following liquid chromatography. With an applied potential of 0.8 V vs. SCE, the detection limits were 1.2 ng for cysteine and 8 ng for glutathione and the electrode response was linear up to 600 ng for cysteine and 1.8-mu-g for glutathione. The modified electrode displayed high sensitivity and stability and was easy and inexpensive to prepare.

SYNTHESES AND CRYSTAL-STRUCTURES OF TRIINDENYLLANTHANIDE COMPLEXES (ETA-5-C9H7)3LN.OC4H8 (LN=ND,GD,ER)

The complexes named in the title (eta-5-C9H7)3Ln.OC4H8 (Ln = Nd, Gd, Er) were synthesized by the reaction of anhydrous lanthanide trichlorides with indenyl potassium and cyclooctadienyl potassium (1:2:1 molar ratio) in THF. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, infrared and H-1-NMR spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. In addition, the crystal structures of (eta-5-C9H7)3Nd.OC4H8 (1) and (eta-5-C9H7)3Gd.OC4H8 (2) were determined by an X-ray diffraction study. Complexes 1 and 2 belong to hexagonal space group P6(3) with unit cell parameters a = b = 11.843(3), c = 10.304(4) angstrom, V = 1251.7(9) angstrom-3, D(c) = 1.49 g.cm-3, Z = 2 for 1, and a = b = 11.805(2), c = 10.236(2) angstrom, V = 1235.4(6) angstrom-3 D(c) = 1.54 g.cm-3, Z = 2 for 2. The structures were solved by Patterson and Fourier techniques and refined by least-squares to final discrepancy indices of R = 0.049, R(w) = 0.053 using 925 independent reflections with I greater-than-or-equal-to 3-sigma(I) for 1, and R = 0.023, R(w) = 0.025 using 1327 independent reflections with I greater-than-or-equal-to 3-sigma(I) for 2. Coordination numbers for Nd3+ and Gd3+ are 10; the average bond lengths Nd-O and Gd-O are 2.557(21) and 2.459(13) angstrom, respectively. The structural studies showed the complexes to have 3-fold symmetry, but the THF molecule has no such symmetry; consequently the arrangement of carbon atoms in the THF molecule are disordered.

GENERAL ALPHA-N INDEX AND ITS APPLICATION .1. GENERAL ALPHA-N INDEX AND ITS APPLICATION IN THE EXTRACTION OF Y, CE, U, AND TH BY NEUTRAL PHOSPHORUS EXTRACTANCTS

The general a(N) index is established for molecules containing heteroatoms, rings, and multiple bonds. The general a(N) index is able to describe molecules with minute differences in structure and can also reveal the properties of molecules. This theory is successfully applied to the case of neutral phosphorus extractants. Both the molecular polarity and steric effect are characterized by the general a(N) index. The relationships between these properties and the distribution ratios for extracting Y, Ce, U, and Th are also shown by the general a(N) index.

二(2-乙基己基)膦酸萃取Er(Ⅲ)的动力学和机理

H(DEHP)是HEH(EHP)和HDEHP的同系物,它们的结构分别为:HDEHP,(GO)_2PO(OH);HEH(EHP),(GO)(G)PO(OH);H(DEHP),(G)_2PO(OH)。其中G为2-乙基已基。 希土元素萃取分离工艺化学表明,溶剂萃取希土元素对酸度的依赖关系及相邻希土元素间的分离因素值是选择萃取剂时应优先考虑的因素。HDEHP萃取剂对中、重希士元素反萃酸度高,HEH(EHP)是一个优良萃取剂,但对Er,Tm,Yb,Lu的反萃仍需5mol/l的酸。由于H(DEHP)分子中不含酯氧原子,使得它的pK_a值比HDEHP和HEH(EHP)的高。从而,用H(DEHP)萃取希土元素时需要的水相酸度更低,反萃更容易。而且H(DEHP)

A potent anti-oxidant property: fluorescent recombinant alpha-phycocyanin of Spirulina

To express and product a fluorescent antioxidant holo-alpha-phycocyanin (PC) of Spirulina platensis (Sp) with His-tag (rHHPC; recombinant holo-alpha-phycocyaninof Spirulina platensis with His-tag) in 5-l bench scale. A vector harbouring two cassettes was constructed: cpcA along with cpcE-cpcF in one cassette; ho1-pcyA in the other cassette. Lyases CpcE/F of Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 (S6) could catalyse the 82 site Cys in apo-alpha-PC of Sp linking with bilin chromophores, and rHHPC was biosynthesized in Escherichia coli BL21. The constant feeding mode was adopted, and transformant reached the biomass of rHHPC up to 0.55 g l(-1) broth in 5-litre bench scale. rHHPC was purified by Ni2+ affinity column conveniently. The absorbance and the fluorescence emission spectra of rHHPC had lambda(max) at 621 and 650 nm, respectively. The IC50 values of rHHPC were 277.5 +/- 25.8 mu g ml(-1) against hydroxyl radicals and 20.8 +/- 2.2 mu g ml(-1) against peroxyl radicals. Combinational biosynthesis of rHHPC was feasible, and the constant feeding mode was adopted to produce good yields of rHHPC. Fluorescent rHHPC with several unique qualitative and quantitative features was effective on scavenging hydroxyl and peroxyl radicals. A potent antioxidant rHHPC was co-expressed, produced and characterized for nutritional and pharmacological values, which would help to develop phycobiliproteins' applications in their fluorescent and biological activities.

Highly soluble and stable recombinant holo-phycocyanin alpha subunit expressed in Escherichia coli

C-phycocyanin (Cpc) is one of the phycobiliproteins with highly fluorescent and various pharmacological activities Holo-Cpc-alpha Subunit (holo-CpcA) expressed in Escherichia colt resulted in low yield and tended to aggregate after purification in this Study, we constructed a new plasmid coding holo-CpcA fused with hexahistidine and maltose-binding protein tag, which designated as HMCpcA. to Improve Its Solubility and stability without the Impairment of its spectra anti fluorescent properties HMCpcA was significantly more stable over time and a wider range of pH as compared to holo-CpcA. In addition. both the solubility and yields of HMCpcA increase significantly We here provided an example to demonstrate that MBP could also Improve the stability of the protein it fused while it has been reported as a soluble fusion partner before. This novel fluorescent protein will facilitate the large-scale production and be potentially applicable for the development Of fluorescent probes, as well as antioxidant agents (C) 2009 Elsevier B V.

Biosynthesis of fluorescent allophycocyanin alpha-subunits by autocatalysis in Escherichia coli

APC (allophycocyanin) is widely used for fluorescence tagging and may be a promising antioxidant agent for use within the food and pharmaceutical industries. Chromophore attachment to apo-ApcA (apo-APC alpha-subunit without chromophore) can be auto-catalysed both in vitro and in vivo. In the present study, a plasmid containing genes of apo-ApcA and chromophore synthetases (HOI (ferredoxin-dependent haem oxygenase) and PcyA (phycocyanobilin:ferredoxin oxidoreductase)] was constructed and expressed in Escherichia coli. The results show that holo-ApcA (APC alpha-subunit with chromophore) can be synthesized by autocatalysis in E. coli. Recombinant holo-ApcA showed the same spectral and fluorescent properties as PC (phycocyanin) and could serve as a good substitute for native PC for fluorescent tagging. Moreover, recombinant ApcA can inhibit hydroxyl and peroxyl radicals more strongly than holo-ApcA and native APC. The EC50 values were 296.4 +/- 22.4 mu g/ml against hydroxyl radicals and 38.5 +/- 2.6 mu g/ml against peroxyl radicals.
