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

Hippurate is known to be synthesized from benzoate and glycine in the liver and kidney. It takes part in renal ammoniagenesis by modulating the activity of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (gamma GT). Due to its chemical structure, however, hippurate might also serve

Between 1983 and 1988 we treated 36 patients with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) by an array of antioxidants and added other drugs to the regimen whenever a patient reported deterioration. Our customary prescription sequence was N-acetylcysteine (NAC); vitamins C

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

The pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease is strongly associated with the formation and deposition of beta-amyloid peptide (beta AP) in the brain. This peptide contains a methionine (Met) residue in the C-terminal domain, which is important for its neurotoxicity and its
