Response to Comment on “Characterizing the N-Terminal Processing Motif of MHC Class I Ligands”
2008
The possibility that ERAAP plays a role in limiting the presentation of peptides derived from signal peptides may be tempting from an immunologist’s view. In eukaryotic cells, signal peptides have a mean length of 22 amino acids and are removed by signal peptide peptidases from the N terminus of
1976
A radical mechanism is proposed for the formation of the 1,2-polymer 2 in the “spontaneous” polymerization of 4-vinylpyridinium salts 4-VP.HX (X=NO3, ClO4, HSO4, I) in aqueous solution on the basis of strong inhibition by oxygen and other radical inhibitors. Quantitative investigation of the influence of oxygen on the formation of the 1,2-polymer allowed the derivation of a formal kinetic scheme for the initiation and polymerization steps which is consistent with a free radical mechanism. Dependence of the average molecular weight of 2 on monomer concentration is in agreement with this model. Dependence of the inhibition time on the oxygen concentration as well as an acceleration of the fin…
Die herstellung molekulareinheitlicher leiteroligomerer und einer molekulareinheitlichen hexaacrylsäure. IV. Mitt.: Modelle für matrizenreaktionen
1968
Die phenolischen Hydroxylgruppen molekulareinheitlicher Mehrkernverbindungen mit vier und funf pKresolbausteinen je Molekul konnten vollstandig mit Acrylsaurechlorid in Gegenwart von Triathylamin verestert werden. Lies man auf die in siedendem Benzol stark verdunnten mehrafachen Acrylsaureester einen Uberschus an Radikalen aus α.α′-Azoisobutyrodinitril einwirken, so bildeten sich mit guter Ausbeute molekulareinheitliche, dunnschichtchromatographisch reine Leiteroligomere. Die alkalische Verseifung des Leiteroilgomeren mit vier p-Kresolbausteinen gab eine molekulareinheitliche Hexaacrylsaure, die als Hexamethylester durch Elementaranalyse und Molekulargewicht charakterisiert wurde; die gefun…
Das durch das enzym amylomaltase eingestellte gleichgewicht oligomerer amylosen
1966
In der Reihe Glucose G, Maltose G2, Maltotriose G3 usw. stellt Amylomaltase die Gleichgewichte: 2 G2 = G3 + G (K1), G3 + G2 = G4 + G (K2) usw. ein. Die Gleichgewichtsgemische werden chromatographisch analysiert und daraus die Gleichgewichtskonstanten K1, K2 usw. berechnet. Diese steigen vom Wert K1 = 0,9 ab bis zu einem Grenzwert von etwa 1,05 asymptotisch an. Enthalpie, Entropie und freie Enthalpie liegen, auser fur den ersten Reaktionsschritt (K1), wie zu erwarten nahe bei 0. Das aus Escherichia coli (Stamm ML aus dem Institut Pasteur) isolierte Enzym Amylomaltase hat ein Molekulargewicht von etwa 130 000 und eine darauf bezogen Wechselahle von etwa 11 000 Mol Maltose pro Min. In the seri…
Diffusional Relaxation in Dimer Deposition
1992
In deposition of dimers on a 1D lattice substrate, we find by analytical arguments, supported by numerical Monte Carlo simulations, that the effect of added diffusional relaxation is to allow the full, saturation coverage, 100%, for large times. This limiting coverage is approached according to the ~ 1/√t power law preceded, for fast diffusion, by the mean-field crossover regime with the intermediate ~ 1/t behavior.
Application of pressurized fluid extraction to determine cadmium and zinc in plants
2006
Abstract A procedure for the determination of Cd and Zn in plants is proposed. The metals are extracted by pressurized fluid extraction (PFE). Operational conditions are: pressure 1500 psi, temperature 75 °C, static time 5 min, flush volume 35%, purge time 60 s, cycles 1 and 1,2-diaminocyclohexane- N , N , N ′, N ′-tetraacetic acid (CDTA) 0.01 M at pH 4.5 as extracting solution. Determination of Zn is carried out by flame atomic absorption spectroscopy and depending on the concentration level, Cd content is determined by flame or electrothermal atomic absorption spectroscopy. Certified samples of Virginia tobacco leaves, tea leaves, spinach leaves, poplar leaves, a commercial spinach sample…
Pyrene-Capped CdSe@ZnS Nanoparticles as Sensitive Flexible Oxygen Sensors in Non-Aqueous Media**
2014
A flexible, highly sensitive sensor of oxygen in non-aqueous solvents is described. It consists of CdSe/ZnS nanoparticles decorated with a considerable number of pyrene units, thus making the formation of the pyrene excimer possible. The emission of the pyrene excimer and that of the nanoparticle are suitably separated from each other and also from the excitation wavelength. This sensor can be applied as a ratiometric oxygen sensor by using the linear response of the pyrene excimer lifetime combined with the linear response of the nanoparticle excited state lifetime. This nanohybrid has been assayed in seven media with different dielectric constants and viscosities over the whole oxygen con…
A New pH-Dependent Macrocyclic Rhodamine B-Based Fluorescent Probe for Copper Detection in White Wine
2019
For efficiently measuring copper (II) ions in the acidic media of white wine, a new chemosensor based on rhodamine B coupled to a tetraazamacrocyclic ring (13aneN4CH2NH2) was designed and synthesized by a one-pot reaction using ethanol as a green solvent. The obtained chemosensor was characterized via NMR, UV and fluorescent spectra. It was marked with no color emission under neutral pH conditions, with a pink color emission under acidic conditions, and a magenta color emission under acidic conditions where copper (II) ions were present. The sensitivity towards copper (II) ions was tested and verified over Ca2+, Ag+, Zn2+, Mg2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Fe2+, Pb2+, Cd2+, Fe3+, and Mn2+, with a detection…
Convergent Morphological Evolution in Silene Sect. Italicae (Caryophyllaceae) in the Mediterranean Basin
2022
Recent divergence can obscure species boundaries among closely related taxa. Silene section Italicae (Caryophyllaceae) has been taxonomically controversial, with about 30 species described. We investigate species delimitation within this section using 500 specimens sequenced for one nuclear and two plastid markers. Despite the use of a small number of genes, the large number of sequenced samples allowed confident delimitation of 50% of the species. The delimitation of other species (e.g., Silene nemoralis, S. nodulosa and S. andryalifolia) was more challenging. We confirmed that seven of the ten chasmophyte species in the section are not related to each other but are, instead, genetically c…
Intervención fisioterápica en el anciano con limitación funcional para las actividades de la vida diaria: estudio comparativo de la efectividad de do…
2011
Introducción.La pérdida generalizada de masa y fuerza muscular asociada al envejecimiento es causa de deterioro funcional y discapacidad física, especialmente en el anciano de edad avanzada. En este contexto, la función respiratoria puede verse gravemente comprometida, cuando al descenso fisiológico de la fuerza de la musculatura respiratoria (MR), se le suman la comorbilidad y la inmovilidad. Estudios previos han demostrado que el entrenamiento específico de la MR se acompaña de la mejora significativa de la fuerza y la resistencia de esta musculatura, tanto en sujetos sanos como en enfermos. Por lo tanto, puede tratarse de una intervención efectiva para mejorar y mantener las característi…
