Purification and properties of protocatechuate-3,4-dioxygenase from Tecoma stans L

Protocatechuate-3,4-dioxygenase from the leaves of Tecoma stans was purified to near homogeneity and some of its properties studied. It was optimally active at pH 5.2 and at 40°C. Its molecular weight of approx. 150 000 was determined by gel filtration on a Sephadex G-150 column. The Km value for protocatechuate was found to be 330 μM and for ferrous sulfate, 40 μM. The enzyme was highly specific for protocatechuate and did not attack any of the substrate analogues. None of the substrate analogues tested inhibited the enzyme activity. Sulfhydryl reagents inhibited the enzyme activity which could be partially reversed by sulfhydryl compounds. The dioxygenase activity was not associated with polyphenol oxidase activity.

Synthesis of new 4-isopropylthiazole hydrazide analogs and some derived clubbed triazole, oxadiazole ring systems - A novel class of potential antibacterial, antifungal and antitubercular agents

In the present study a series of 4-isopropylthiazole-2-carbohydrazide analogs, derived clubbed oxadiazole-thiazole and triazole-thiazole derivatives have been synthesized and characterized by IR, H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, elemental and mass spectral analyses. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their preliminary in vitro antibacterial, antifungal and antitubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H(37)Rv strain by broth dilution assay method. The synthesized compounds 7a, 7b, 7d and 4 showed an antitubercular efficacy considerably greater than that of the parent 4-isopropyl-1,3-thiazole-2-carbohydrazide 1, suggesting that the substituted 4-isopropylthiazole-2-carbohydrazide moiety plays an important role in enhancing the antitubercular properties of this class of compounds. Compounds 2c, 3, 4, 6d, 7a and 7b exhibited good or moderate antibacterial and antifungal activity. Compounds 4 and 7b showed appreciable cytotoxicity at a concentration of 250 mu M.

Synthesis and Cytotoxic Evaluation of Novel 2-(4-(2,2,2-Trifluoroethoxy)-3-methylpyridin-2-ylthio)-1H-benzo[d]imid azole Derivatives

The present work deals with the anticancer effect of benzimidazole derivatives associated with the pyridine framework. By varying the functional group at N-terminal of the benzimidazole by different L-amino acids, several 2-(4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-3-methylpyridin-2-ylthio)-1H-benzo[d]imid azole derivatives 9(a-j) were synthesized. Their chemical structures were confirmed by H-1 NMR, IR and mass spectroscopic techniques. The synthesized compounds were examined for their antiproliferative effects against human leukemia cell lines, K562 and CEM. The preliminary results showed most of the derivatives had moderate antitumor activity. Compound 9j containing cysteine residue exhibited good inhibition compared to other amino acid resides. In addition DNA fragmentation results suggest that 9j is more cytotoxic and able to induce apoptosis.
