Abstract An integrated molecular modeling system for designing and studying organic bioorganic molecules their complexes using mechanics is described. The graphically controlled, atom‐based allows the construction, display manipulation of having as many 10,000 atoms provides interactive, state‐of‐the‐art on any subset up to 1,000 atoms. semiautomates graphical construction analysis complex structures ranging from polycyclic biopolymers mixed complexes. We have placed emphasis providing...

Abstract A general algorithm is described which exhaustively searches conformational space using an internal coordinate tree search. Using only geometrical operations and a set of criteria for eliminating chemically unreasonable structures, the generates starting geometries optimization by molecular mechanics. An implementation this exceedingly fast finds all known minima, as well several new ones, four test alkanes. This method makes feasible global molecules with up to 10 9 possibilities.

Abstract. Isoprene hydroxynitrates (IN) are tracers of the photochemical oxidation isoprene in high NOx environments. Production and loss IN have a significant influence on cycle tropospheric O3 chemistry. To better understand chemistry, series reaction chamber experiments was conducted to determine yield from photooxidation at NO concentrations (> 100 ppt). By combining experimental data calculated isomer distributions, total 9(+4/−3) % derived. The result applied zero-dimensional model...
Abstract. The production of atmospheric organic nitrates (RONO2) has a large impact on air quality and climate due to their contribution secondary aerosol influence tropospheric ozone concentrations. Since control the fate gas phase NOx (NO + NO2), byproduct anthropogenic combustion processes, reactivity is great interest. While many relevant still uncertain, one significant reactive pathway, condensed hydrolysis, recently been identified as potential sink for nitrate species. partitioning...
Two patients with phosphofructokinase (PFK) deficiency had exercise intolerance and increased serum activity of creatine kinase; one presented hemolytic anemia, hyperuricemia, gouty arthritis. The glycogen concentration in the muscle these was about twice normal. PFK virtually absent muscle, but antibodies against M subunits normal human showed cross-reacting material from both patients. level red blood cells, studied case, lower than patient parents. Morphologically, there extensive...
Four model dipeptides, Ac-ψ[CSNH]-Gly-NHMe, Ac-Gly-ψ[CSNH]-NHMe, Ac-ψ[CSNH]-Ala-NHMe, and Ac-Ala-ψ[CSNH]-NHMe, each containing a thioamide bond, were studied by high-level ab initio calculations.

Comparison of the 1H NMR spectra three synthetic isomers with those confirmed configurational reassignment its threonine residues as d-allothreonine and assignment configuration β-methoxytyrosine residue (2R,3R).
The cyclic dipeptide cyclo[(R)-His-(R)-Phe] (1) has been known since 1981 to catalyze the enantioselective formation of cyanohydrins from aldehydes and HCN. Although 1 proved be very effective in production optically active cyanohydrins, precise structure its catalytically form remains unresolved. reaction 3-phenoxybenzaldehyde HCN presence also shown exhibit autocatalysis: product (S)-3-phenoxymandelonitrile reacts with a new, more catalytic species. It is now demonstrated that this...
Resonant two-photon ionization (R2PI), resonant ion-dip infrared (RIDIR), and UV-UV hole-burning spectroscopies have been employed to obtain conformation-specific ultraviolet spectra under supersonic expansion conditions for O-(2-acetamidoethyl)-N-acetyltyramine (OANAT), a doubly substituted aromatic in which amide-containing alkyl alkoxy side chains are located para positions on phenyl ring. For comparison, three single-chain analogs were also studied: (i) N-phenethyl-acetamide (NPEA), (ii)...
Abstract HMG-CoA reductase (HMGR), a rate-limiting enzyme of the mevalonate pathway in Gram-positive pathogenic bacteria, is an attractive target for development novel antibiotics. In this study, we report crystal structures HMGR from Enterococcus faecalis (efHMGR) apo and liganded forms, highlighting several unique features enzyme. Statins, which inhibit human with nanomolar affinity, perform poorly against bacterial homologs. We also potent competitive inhibitor (Chembridge2 ID 7828315 or...
Two possible isomers of the natural product callipeltin E (1, 5) were synthesized by using an Fmoc-based solid-phase strategy in 7 steps, 20% and 26% overall yields, respectively. The (1)H NMR spectrum synthetic 5 correlated closely with that product, whereas 1 did not, providing confirmation configurational reassignment N-terminal residue as D-allothreonine. This result strongly implies corresponding related cyclic depsipeptides callipeltins A B should also be considered a D-allothreonine residue.
