Application

L-Argininamide dihydrochloride has been used as an additive to compare its effect over L-arg in egg lysozyme refolding studies. It has also been used as a component of substrate stock solution for enzymatic kyotorphin synthesis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

L-Argininamide (L-Arm) is a hydrophilic amino acid derivative that is used as a model compound in physicochemical characteristic studies of ligand binding DNA aptamers and their potential development as fluorescent aptasensors.

Fluorescently labelled NPY Y(1) receptor (Y(1)R) ligands were synthesized by connecting pyrylium and cyanine dyes with the argininamide-type Y(1)R antagonist core structure by linkers, covering a wide variety in length and chemical nature, attached to the guanidine group. The most

Aptamers are nucleic acids that can selectively bind to a variety of targets. Aptamers usually undergo conformational transitions from a flexible or disordered structure into a rigid or ordered structure upon target-binding. This study describes a detection method for l-argininamide

We report a novel label-free method for the investigation of the adaptive recognition of small molecules by nucleic acid aptamers using capillary electrophoresis analysis. Cocaine and argininamide were chosen as model molecules, and the two corresponding DNA aptamers were used.

The nucleic acid minor groove binding dyes, DAPI and Hoechst 33258, were for the first time used in label-free aptamer-based sensors for L-argininamide. The synergy binding effect results in the enhancement of fluorescence of dyes. The method for detection of

The thermal stability and ligand binding properties of the L-argininamide-binding DNA aptamer (5'-GATCGAAACGTAGCGCCTTCGATC-3') were studied by spectroscopic and calorimetric methods. Differential calorimetric studies showed that the uncomplexed aptamer melted in a two-state reaction with a melting temperature T(m)=50.2+/-0.2 degrees C
