Inorganic Polyphosphate in Eukaryotes: Enzymes, Metabolism and Function
1999
Inorganic polyphosphates (polyP) are linear polymers of orthophosphate (Pi) residues linked by high-energy phosphoanhydride bonds. These polymers are widely distributed in nature, from archaebacteria, eubacteria, fungi, algae, and protozoa to higher plants and animals (for reviews, see Kulaev 1979; Wood and Clark 1988; Kornberg 1994, 1995). PolyP molecules are stable in neutral aqueous solutions, but are hydrolyzed by heat-treatment, and under acidic or alkaline conditions. The chain length of polyP may range from 3 to more than 1000 Pi residues; it can be analyzed on urea/polyacrylamide gels (Clark and Wood 1987; Lorenz et al. 1994a). In contrast to the linear polymer, branched inorganic p…
Purification and characterization of an exopolyphosphatase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
1994
An exopolyphosphatase (polyphosphate phosphohydrolase; EC 3.6.1.11) activity that cleaves inorganic polyphosphates to orthophosphate has been purified to apparent homogeneity (> 95% pure) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The exopolyphosphatase is a monomeric protein with a polypeptide molecular mass of 28 kDa. The enzyme, which can be stabilized in the presence of Triton X-100, has a pH optimum of 7.5 and requires, for maximal activity, Co2+ or Mg2+ ions. In the absence of these ions, the exopolyphosphatase binds to polyphosphate but does not degrade it, allowing affinity purification of the enzyme on a polyphosphate-modified zirconia support. o-Vanadate, Cu2+, and Ca2+ are effective inhibito…
Lichtstreuungsmessungen an oligomeren; lösungsverhalten von polypropylenglykol
1967
Es wird uber Lichtstreuungsmessungen an Polypropylenglykolen mit Molekulargewichten von M = 400 bis 4000, an monomerem und dimerem Propylenglykol, an Diphenyl, Tristearin und Pentaerythrittetrastearat in Losung berichtet. Die molekulareinheitlichen Substanzen dienten zur Untersuchung der Leistungsfahigkeit der Lichtstreuungstechnik im Bereich niedriger Molekulargewichte. Fur den CABANNES-Faktor und das Brechungsinkrement wurde eine Abhangigkeit von Molekulargewicht und Konzentration gefunden. Die Streulichtmessungen an den polymerhomologen Propylenglykolen in Verbindung mit Viskositatsmessungen in Aceton und Benzol wurden zur Charakterisierung des Losungsverhaltens verwendet. Es ergab sich,…
Redox properties of titanocene-pyrrole derivative and its electropolymerization
2001
A new titanocene dichloride derivative in which one cyclopentadienyl ligand (Cp) is functionalized with a pyrrolyl ring, Tc3Py (Cl2TiCpC5H4(CH2)3NC4H4), has been synthesized and characterized with NMR. Its redox properties have been studied by CV in acetonitrile (AN), tetrahydrofurane (THF) and dichloromethane (DCM), in comparison with unsubstituted titanocene dichloride (Tc) and pyrrole. Ti(IV/III) transition observed within the negative potential range is a quasi-reversible reaction in THF and DCM (but without a complete recuperation of the initial reagent in the back scan) while the reoxidation peak in AN is strongly shifted in the positive direction. These results are interpreted within…
Amorphous polyphosphate nanoparticles: application of the morphogenetically active inorganic polymer for personalized tissue regeneration
2019
ChemInform Abstract: Palladium-Polypyrrole Nanocomposites Pd@PPy for Direct C-H Functionalization of Pyrroles and Imidazoles with Bromoarenes.
2016
Palladium–polypyrrole nanocomposites (Pd@PPy) with unique combination of high palladium dispersion (nanoparticle size 2.4 nm) and high palladium content (35 wt%) are efficient catalysts for the selective arylation of substituted pyrroles and imidazoles with either activated or deactivated aryl bromides. The performances of the recoverable supported palladium catalyst matches the best performances of homogeneous systems based on Pd(OAc)2 at 0.5–0.2 mol%, and largely overwhelm the classical Pd/C catalyst.
Mechanism of redox transformation of titanocene dichloride centers immobilized inside a polypyrrole matrix—EQCM and XPS evidences
2005
Abstract We report electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) results for electrodeposition of titanocene derivatized polypyrrole p(Tc3Py) films and redox transformation of polypyrrole matrix and titanocene centers immobilized in the film. Films of p(Tc3Py), Tc3Py = Tc(CH 2 ) 3 NC 4 H 4 (Tc = Cl 2 TiCpCp′, Cp = C 5 H 5 , Cp′ = C 5 H 4 ) were obtained from acetonitrile solutions of monomer on a Pt disc or thin Au layer evaporated on 10 MHz quartz crystals. Polymerization efficiency, derived from the slope of the change of resonant frequency as a function of the deposition charge ranged from 54% to 75%. A gradual loss of redox activity of Tc centers during consecutive redox cycles of …
Palladium–Polypyrrole Nanoparticles-Catalyzed Sonogashira Coupling
2012
Abstract Palladium nanoparticles were encapsulated into polypyrrole globules via one-step one-pot redox reaction between tetraamminepal- ladium(ii) dichloride and pyrrole in water. Such a material is an active catalyst for the Sonogashira coupling of iodo- and bromo- arenes.
Evolutionary site-number changes of ribosomal DNA loci during speciation: complex scenarios of ancestral and more recent polyploid events.
2015
Genes encoding ribosomal RNA are universal key constituents of eukaryotic genomes, but the number of loci varies between species. We assessed the evolutionary trends in site-number changes of rDNA loci during speciation in a lineage of the cabbage family, characterized by complex scenarios of polyploidy. Our results suggest the existence of constrictions to burst loci amplification in the 5S rDNA family in polyploids and an overall trend to further reduce their number. The 45S rDNA site change in polyploids tells a different story, implying loci amplification in most of the polyploid entities.
