Our earlier studies documented the ability of 7,8-diacetoxy-4-methylcoumarin (DAMC) to cause irreversible inhibition of cytochrome P-450 linked mixed function oxidases (MFO) mediated by membrane bound DAMC: protein transacetylase. Since P-450 catalyzed oxidation of benzene is crucial to its toxic effects
--2-(Dimethylamino) fluorene (1a) and 5-benzoyloxy-2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethylporphyrin (4) react with superoxide anion radical (generated from KO2/18-crown-6 polyether) in aprotic media. Yet, when incorporated into the lipid bilayer of dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine liposomes, these two substrates are inert to superoxide, generated enzymatically (xanthine oxidase/acetaldehyde)

Intracellular pH (pHi) of turtle bladder mucosal cells was studied by the trapped fluorescent indicator technique. Bladders efficiently accumulated and converted 4-methylumbelliferyl acetate to its pH-sensitive derivative 4-methylumbelliferone (4MU). Excited at the pH-indifferent wavelength 334 nm, bladders fluoresced a uniform
This paper examines covalent reactivity of AchE with respect to cationic and uncharged methylphosphonates and substrates in the absence and presence of cationic ligands selective for the active center and the peripheral anionic site. The organophosphorus inhibitors are enantiomeric alkyl
