The immune response to post-translationally modified antigens is a key characteristic of rheumatoid arthritis. Carbamylation is such a posttranslational modification. Recently, we demonstrated that autoantibodies recognizing carbamylated proteins are present in sera of rheumatoid arthritis. The molecular mechanisms underlying the
The reactivity of alicyclic ketazines in criss-cross cycloadditions was investigated. They react with potassium cyanate and ammonium thiocyanate in the presence of acetic acid to form spirocyclic perhydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,2-alpha][1,2,4]triazole-1,5-diones and perhydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,2-alpha][1,2,4]triazole-1,5-dithiones, respectively, in relatively high yields.
Hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) is a naturally occurring gas that is also associated with several industries. The potential for widespread human inhalation exposure to this toxic gas is recognized as a public health concern. The nasal epithelium is particularly susceptible to
The reaction of cyanate with C-terminal carboxyl groups of peptides in aqueous solution was considered as a potential pathway for the abiotic formation of peptide bonds under the condition of the primitive Earth. The catalytic effect of dicarboxylic acids on
Electrochemical measurement of respiratory chain activity is a rapid and reliable screening for the toxicity on microorganisms. Here, we investigated in-vitro effects of toxin on Escherichia coli (E. coli) that was taken as a model microorganism incubated with ferricyanide. The
