Acylase I from Aspergillus melleus was immobilized on supports consisting of unmodified and modified silica. Modification was performed using 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) and glutaraldehyde (GA). The effectiveness of immobilization was investigated using the standard Bradford method in addition to a number

A bulky platinum triamine complex, [Pt(Me(5)dien)(NO(3))]NO(3) (Me(5)dien=N,N,N',N',N''-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine) has been prepared and reacted in D(2)O with N-acetylmethionine (N-AcMet) and guanosine 5'-monophosphate (5'-GMP); the reactions have been studied using (1)H NMR spectroscopy. Reaction with 5'-GMP leads to two rotamers of [Pt(Me(5)dien)(5'-GMP-N7)](+). Reaction
