A serine residue located in the active site of myosin head (S1) was labelled by 9-anthroylnitrile, an amino group located in the central domain of S1 was labelled by 7-diethylamino-3-(4'-isothio-cyanato-phenyl)-4-methylcoumari n, a cysteine residue located near the C-terminus of S1

Fluorescence excitation spectra of the S(1)-S(0) origin band of 9-cyanoanthracene have been observed under a uniform electric field up to 200 kV/cm to explore pendular-state spectrum of an asymmetric-top molecule close to the strong field limit. The observed spectra exhibit

It has been shown that one of the 12 serine residues within the 23 kDa segment of myosin subfragment 1 can be covalently modified with a fluorescent probe 9-anthroylnitrile (ANN) [Hiratsuka, T. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264 (30), 18188-18194]. To

The esterification reagent 9-anthroylnitrile (ANN) reacts with a serine residue in the NH2-terminal 23-kDa peptide segment of myosin subfragment-1 heavy chain to yield a fluorescent S1 derivative labeled by the anthroyl group (Hiratsuka, T. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 18188-18194).

9-Anthroylnitrile was used as an achiral reagent for the derivatization of carnitine. The reagent forms UV-absorbing derivatives with the hydroxyl groups of carnitine enantiomers under very mild conditions. The derivatives were separated by high-performance liquid chromatography on an ovomucoid-conjugated column
