Heparin was modified at carboxyl groups by reaction with several pharmacologically important amino-containing compounds in aqueous medium in the presence of 1-ethyl-3-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]carbodiimide. In dependence on the nature of the amine and the ratio of reagents, conjugates containing 36-100% amide and

Low density lipoproteins (LDL) have been cationized using the water-soluble carbodiimide, N-ethyl-N'-(3-trimethylpropylammonium) carbodiimide iodide at a reagent: lipoprotein mole ratio of 10 000:1. This was shown to increase the innate DNA-binding capacity of LDL 10-fold. [125I]-labeled carbodiimide-modified LDL ([125I])-labeled ECDI-LDL)

The regulatory protein system in the skeletal muscle thin filaments is known to exhibit three discrete states, called "off" or "blocked" (no Ca2+), "on" or "closed" (with Ca2+ alone) and "potentiated" or "open" (with strongly bound myosin head) states. Biochemical

The proton-translocating NADH-quinone oxidoreductase (NDH-1) of Paracoccus denitrificans is composed of 14 different subunits (designated Nqo1-14), seven of which are located in the membrane domain and the other seven in the peripheral domain. It has been previously reported that membrane

In order to identify functionally important amino acid residues in the chloroplast protein import machinery, chloroplasts were preincubated with amino-acid-modifying reagents and then allowed to import or form early import intermediates with precursor proteins. Incubation of chloroplasts with N-ethyl maleimide
