Alkylating NAD-Analogs, Glyceraldehyde-3 Phosphate Dehydrogenase, Half-of-the-Sites Reactivity co-(3-Bromoacetylpyridinio)alkyldiphosphoadenosines with alkyl chain lengths of 2 -6 me thylene groups inactivate glyceraldehyde-3 phosphate dehydrogenase from rabbit muscle. Half-of-the-Sites reactivity is observed in each case: The analogs are covalently bound to highly reactive cysteine residues in two of the four subunits. The remaining two subunits still bind N AD and the reactive SH-groups, although modified by SH-reagents of low molecular weight are not labeled by any of the brominated coenzyme models. This behaviour may be explained by the assumption, that the modification of 2 subunits induces structural changes in the neighboured unoccupied subunits which prevent any attack on reactive cysteine residues caused by fixation and orientation of the bromoketo-coenzyme analog when bound to the active center. Structural similarities of the covalently bound coenzyme analogs in the active center and the native ternary GAPDH-NAD-substrate complex suggest that half-of-the-sites reactivity is a natural characteristic of the enzymes catalytic mechanism.
The cyanobacterium Synechococcus (Anacystis nidulans strain L 1402-1) was grown at +35 °C in air and in air enriched with 2.2 vol.% CO2. The effect of different oxygen concentrations (0, 2, 20, 50, 75 and 99.97 or 97.8 vol.%) was studied in low (0.03 vol.%) and high (2.2 vol.%) CO2 concentrations at + 35 °C. After exposure to a nitrogen atmosphere and low CO2 content I4C-bicarbonate was mainly incorporated into aspartate and glycine/serine. During oxygenic photosynthetic CO2 fixation label in aspartate decreased and a high degree of radioactivity could be found in 3-phosphoglyceric acid and sugar monophosphates. The Calvin cycle was the main fixing pathway in 2.2 vol.% CO2 during anoxygenic and oxygenic conditions independent on the O2 concentrations during the experiments. No oxygen enhancement of photosynthetic CO2 fixation could be found. Possible mechanism involved in CO2 fixation pathways and glycolate metabolism underlying the effect of oxygen was discussed.
The stereochemistry of the bisaboloids in chamomile-with the exception of bisabolol-oxide C-has been elucidated. The in-vitro-examination of the mutual convertibilities of some bisaboloids gave evidence for the stereochemical accordance of the common chiral centres of all the bisaboloids. The absolute configurations of the remaining third asymmetric carbon atoms in bisabololoxide A and B have been determined by NMR spectrometric studies in comparison with their unnatural semisynthetic epimers. All the stereogenic centres of the bisabololoxides A and B, of (-)-α-bisabolol and of bisabolonoxide A turn out to be S-configurated.
The diphenyls MPh2 (M = Be, Mg, Zn, Cd, Hg) have been reacted with pyrazine (Pz) in tetrahydrofuran. Only the magnesium derivative undergoes electron transfer to yield the 1:1 radical complex [Pz(MgPh)]·. However, in the presence of sodium or potassium persistent 1:2 complexes [Pz(MPh)2]+. are formed with M = Be, Mg, Zn. Use of the higher homologues CdPh2 and HgPh2 leads to reduction to the metals. The 1:2 complexes have been characterized by ESR spectroscopy; metal coupling constants of 9Be, 25Mg and 67Zn could be determined in natural isotopic abundance.
The alkyls MR3 (M = B, AI, Ga, In) react with pyrazine (Pz) and sodium in THF to yield persistent radical complexes Pz(MR2)2 · +MR4- (1). Use of TIR3 leads to rapid deposition of thallium metal. The formation of these ionic complexes 1 is the result of MR3 dissociation into +MR2 and -MR4 ions. All radicals have been identified and characterized by ESR; the data reveal the influence of back bonding in the boron derivative.
The compounds ;p-Me2P(X)-C6H4-P(X)Me2, X = O, S, Se, NPh undergo one-electron reduction at a mercury cathode or on reaction with solvated electrons in a K/18-crown-6/THF mixture. The radical anions formed are persistent and have been characterized by ESR. They may be described as complexes of the spin-bearing moiety p-Me2P-C6H4-PMe2 · with the coordinated groups X.
7-Dehydrocholesterol and ergosterol are oxidised by iodine and FeCl3 under "physiologically similar" conditions to highly reactive alkylating species. These can be trapped by nucleophiles, such as 1-methylimidazole.
The oxidation of the sterols to those alkylating species is discussed as a model-reaction for the first step in chemical carcinogenesis by endogene substrates.
The IR-spectra of BaCO3 (80% 13CO32-, 90% 13CO32-) shows small bands in the ν2-region, which are assigned to short waves of 12CO32--chains with three, five or six carbonate ions.
