Papain-catalyzed regioselective cleavage of alpha-methyl ester in Z-DL-Asu(OMe)-OMe leads to Z-L-Asu(OMe)-OH and Z-D-Asu(OMe)-OMe. Subsequent saponifications yield Z-L-Asu-OH and Z-D-Asu-OH. The enzymatic alpha-ester hydrolysis was also achieved by subtilisin BPN' in organic solvent with low water content.
We describe the synthesis and characterization of a family of biocompatible ABA-triblock copolymers that comprised of hydrophilic A-blocks of poly(ethylene glycol) and hydrophobic B-blocks of oligomers of suberic acid and desaminotyrosyl-tyrosine esters. The triblock copolymers spontaneously self-assemble in aqueous solution
Novel matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)/bacterial collagenase inhibitors are reported, considering the sulfonylated amino acid hydroxamates as lead molecules. A series of compounds was prepared by reaction of arylsulfonyl isocyanates with N-(5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-yl)- and N-(10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-yl) methyl glycocolate, respectively, followed by the conversion of
Neutron diffraction data for suberic acid [HOOC(CH2)6COOH] were collected at 18.4, 75 and 123 K using a twinned crystal. The neutron data reduction included derivation of a complete set of corrected intensities, as if from a single crystal. This was
Through the isolation and identification of a wide variety of degradation products formed from bile acids by microorganisms, a unified scheme for the complete degradation of bile acids to carbon dioxide and water has been proposed and discussed. The proposed
