SP-22 is a mitochondrial antioxidant protein in bovine adrenal cortex. The homologous to thioredoxin peroxidase and other proteins. It protects radical-sensitive enzymes from oxidative damage by radical-generating system (Fe2+/dithiothreitol) the presence of small amount serum. In this study we purified second with Mr 11,777, which cooperates protect glutamine synthetase proteins Fe2+/dithiothreitol-mediated damage. Without SP-22, had no protecting activity. We determined amino acid...
Introduction of an ethylenedithio group into amphiphilic bis(tetrathiafulvalene) annulated macrocycle results in the formation organogels which produce nanodot-array structures Langmuir–Blodgett films (see picture). Chemical oxidation sulphur-containing π-electron system afforded size-controllable electrically conducting nanodot structures.

Serotonin [5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)] is a major therapeutic target of psychiatric disorders. Tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) catalyzes the rate-limiting reaction in biosynthesis 5-HT. Two isoforms (TPH1 and TPH2) having tryptophan hydroxylating activity were identified. Association studies have revealed possible TPH1 involvement conditions behavioral traits. However, mRNA was reported to be mainly expressed pineal gland periphery barely detected brain. Therefore, contribution brain 5-HT...
Trifluoromethylphenyl-substituted phthalimide derivatives favorably form triboluminescence (TL) active noncentrosymmetric crystals. Oligothienyl-, oligophenyl-, and naphthyl-substituted were successfully developed as a series of metal free TL compounds. X-ray crystal structure analyses bithienyl naphthyl revealed layer structures in the same direction. Introduction suitable electron rich π-units such thienyl groups enhances their photoluminescence characteristics, colors can be also...
A highly conducting partially oxidized salt of TPP[Co(Pc)(CN)2 ]2 can be obtained by electrocrystallization ]. The crystal is composed one-dimensional TPP arrays surrounded slipped-stacked [Co(Pc)(CN)2 ] chains. electrical conductivity at room temperature quite high, 120 Ω–1 cm–1 , though low it weakly semiconducting. band width for this stacking mode has been estimated from both thermoelectric power measurements and an extended Hückel calculation. latter suggests that the value...
Incorporation reactions of carbon dioxide (CO2) with N-Boc-α-amido and α-acetoxy stannanes were developed using CsF as a mild tin activator. Monoprotected α-amido could be used, the corresponding arylglycine derivatives obtained in moderate-to-high yields under 1 MPa (10 atm) CO2 pressure. α-Acetoxy also underwent carboxylation to afford mandelic acid excellent ambient Both transformations enabled synthesis α-tertiary α-quaternary carboxylic derivatives. In addition, chirality...
Band gap reduction down to 0.8 eV is observed in tin iodide-based hybrid perovskites as a result of bismuth doping. The band originated because lowering the conduction energies. In spite foreign metal doping, number carriers not affected.
Ti-based binary nitride and ternary films were deposited on cemented carbide by the arc ion plating method investigated microhardness, lattice parameter morphology. Micro-Vickers hardness of TiN, CrN, ZrN was 2000, 1400, 1500 HV, respectively. On other hand, nitrides such as (Ti,Al)N, (TiCr)N, (Ti,Zr)N, (Ti,V)N with identical atomic ratio against Ti generally had higher 3100, 3000, 2400 The parameters both (Ti,Al)N (Ti,Cr)N smaller 4.18 4.19 Å. Futhermore, surface roughness ZrN, (TiAl)N,...
Dihydropteridine reductase [EC 1.6.99.7] was purified from bovine liver in 50% yield and crystallized. The physicochemical properties of the enzyme were quite similar to those sheep dihydropteridine reductase. During course purification, however, found be separated into 2 major peaks together with minor by column chromatography on CM-Sephadex, one identified as a binary complex NADH. reductase-NADH also prepared vitro Upon addition quinonoid-dihydropterin complex, NADH oxidized released...
Because few previous studies have shown the immunohistochemical localization of tryptophan 5-hydroxylase (TPH) in gastrointestinal tract, we developed a specific antibody against TPH purified from mouse mastocytoma P-815 and stained human rat tracts. The specificity was examined by Western blotting immunohistochemistry brain sections. Human ileum colon specimens, stomach, duodenum, jejunum, with without colchicine treatment were prepared for immunohistochemistry. Immunoelectron microscopic...
An organic field-effect transistor was fabricated using an anthracene–tetracyanoquinodimethane (AN–TCNQ) single-crystal charge-transfer (CT) complex as the semiconductor material. The CT showed molecular dynamics related to reorientational motion of AN molecule at room temperature. transfer characteristics drastically changed when temperature decreased from 90 K: n-type → ambipolar-type p-type ambipolar-type. From thermal analysis, AN–TCNQ underwent two phase transitions 120 K. To clarify...
