It has been suggested that protein modifications by malondialdehyde (MDA), a major product of lipid peroxidation, contribute to the fluorescence formation of lipofuscin. Although early studies proposed an aminoenimine structure (RNHCH=CHCH=NR) formed from MDA and the epsilon-amino groups of the

We report a method for site-specifically incorporating l-lysine derivatives into proteins in mammalian cells, based on the expression of the pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthetase (PylRS)-tRNA(Pyl) pair from Methanosarcina mazei. Different types of external promoters were tested for the expression of tRNA(Pyl) in

Proteins are subject of posttranslational modification by sugars and their degradation products in vivo. The process is often referred as glycation. L-Dehydroascorbic acid (DHA), an oxidation product of L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C), is known as a potent glycation agent. A
We have synthesized a hydrophilic crosslinked aminoalkyl polydimethylacrylamide-beaded support upon which peptides have been assembled using standard Fmoc chemistry in automated batch-wise equipment. The resin was prepared by the free radical-initiated co-polymerization of N,N-dimethylacryl-amide, N,N'-bisacrylyl-1,3-diaminopropane and a functional monomer N-methacrylyl-1,3-diaminopropane
