Kinetic parameters have been measured for coupled nucleophilic and solvolytic reactions of 2,2,2-trifluoroethanesulfonyl (tresyl)-modified poly(ethylene glycol) based on a system of coupled differential equations implied by recently proposed elementary reaction mechanisms. Fitted kinetic parameters were found to be strong functions

Oil-based depot formulations may constitute a future delivery method for small peptides. Thus, a requirement is attainment of sufficient oil solubility for such active compounds. A model dipeptide (Gly-Phe) has been converted into lipophilic prodrugs by esterification at the C-terminal

Oligopeptides are efficiently hydrolyzed by Ce(IV) to the corresponding amino acids under mild conditions. The pseudo first-order rate constants for the hydrolysis of H-Gly-Phe-OH and H-Gly-Gly-OH at pH 7.0 and 50 degrees C are 3.5 x 10(-1) and 2.8 x

Natively unfolded phenylalanine-glycine (FG)-repeat domains are alleged to form the physical constituents of the selective barrier-gate in nuclear pore complexes during nucleocytoplasmic transport. Presently, the biophysical mechanism behind the selective gate remains speculative because of a lack of information regarding
