A new class of protein-resistant film based on N-substituted glycine derivatives is described. Pulsed plasma deposited poly(N-acryloylsarcosine methyl ester) coatings are shown to be resistant toward the adsorption of fibrinogen and lysozyme. Deposition and UV irradiation of the polymer through
The Ca2+-responsive enzyme transglutaminase, which catalyzes the cross-bridging of proteins, is present in pancreatic islet cells, but its participation in the process of insulin release remains to be documented. Glycine methylester (1.0-10.0 mM) inhibited, in a dose-related manner, transglutaminase activity
Ca(2+)-Induced insulin release from electropermeabilised islets is inhibited by the transglutaminase inhibitors monodansylcadaverine, glycine methylester, methylamine and cystamine but not by the control compounds dimethyl monodansylcadaverine and sarcosine methylester which lack the primary amine group. Neither monodansylcadaverine nor glycine methylester
Glycine methyl ester, an inhibitor of transglutaminase, decreased glucose-stimulated insulin release and delayed proinsulin conversion in rat pancreatic islets pulse-labelled with L-[4-3H]phenylalanine. Sarcosine methyl ester, which does not inhibit transglutaminase activity, failed to affect insulin release and proinsulin conversion. The

The effects of competitive inhibitors of transglutaminase on the formation of myotubes by the fusion of myoblasts in vitro has been investigated. Myotube formation was inhibited when myoblasts from 11-day-old chick embryos were cultured in vitro in the presence of
