A novel chiral nonionic surfactant, namely octyl-b-D-maltopyranoside (OM), was evaluated in chiral capillary electrophoresis of fluorescently labeled phenoxy acid herbicides. The labeling of the analytes with 7-aminonaphthalene-1,3-disulfonic acid (ANDSA) permitted a concentration detection limit of 5 x 10-10 M using

The ATPase SecA mediates the posttranslational translocation of a wide range of polypeptide substrates through the SecY channel in the cytoplasmic membrane of bacteria. We have determined the crystal structure of a monomeric form of Bacillus subtilis SecA at a

Glycogenin is a 37 kDa self-glycosylating protein which has been demonstrated to be the initiating enzyme and primer for glycogen biosynthesis in liver, skeletal muscle and other tissues. We have recently shown that glycogenin will use alkylglucosides and alkylmaltosides as
A chiral alkylglucoside surfactant, namely n-octyl-beta-D-maltopyranoside (OM), was evaluated in the enantiomeric separation of phenoxy acid herbicides. The enantiomeric resolution of the phenoxy acid herbicides could be manipulated readily by adjusting the surfactant concentration, ionic strength, pH, the percent organic
The binding of alkyl polyglucoside surfactants to the integral membrane protein bacteriorhodopsin (BR) and the formation of protein-surfactant complexes are investigated by sedimentation equilibrium via analytical ultracentrifugation and by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). Contrast variation techniques in SANS enable measurement
