    Notes: Summary Cyanogen bromide (CNBr) peptides were prepared of the insoluble collagen of bovine dental cementum. Following chromatographic separation, the peptides were identified by their amino-acid composition. Type I collagen ([α1(I)]2α2) accounted for more than 90% of the organic matrix, while Type III collagen ([α1(III)]3) was present at a level of approximately 5%. Amino-acid analyses revealed that the CNBr peptides from α1(I) and α2 chains of cementum closely resembled the corresponding peptides from calf skin. The only systematic difference was a higher level of hydroxylation of prolyl and lysyl residues of the cementum peptides.

    Notes: A thermal perturbation curve (TPC) is defined to be the derivative of the fractional degree of saturation, f, with respect to temperature, considered as a function of the natural logarithm of free ligand concentration, y. The theoretical framework for the use of such curves in the thermodynamic analysis of ligand binding to macromolecules is presented. The thermal perturbation curve either provides or complements the information obtained from the derivative binding isotherm ∂f/∂y. For a single set of identical and independent sites the TPC is identical to the derivative binding isotherm. Analysis of such a curve directly yield ΔH0 and ΔG0 for the binding reaction. In actual experimental work, however, the TPC can only be approximated because of “self-buffering” effects relations between the parameter of the approximate curve and the thermodynamic quantities have been developed. This technique is applied to the proflavin-α-chymotryspin system to demonstrate its usefulness. The general features of thermal perturbation curves for cases of multiple sets of independent sites and cooperatively interacting sites have also been developed. The analysis of thermal perturbation curves in combination with other methods should provide a more powerful approach to the characterization of ligand-macromolecule interactions.

    Notes: Stoichiometric mixtures of acridine orange with dermatan sulfate at total dye concentrations ≤ 1 × 10-5 M show fluorescence maxima at 540 nm and 660 nm on excitation at 436 nm. By means of membrane filtration, it is directly demonstrated that the species emitting at 540 nm is due only to unbound dye whereas the 660-nm emitting species is due to bound dye. It is, therefore, possible to differentiate unbound acridine orange from its dermatan sulfate complex solely by spectroscopic methods. Thermodynamic binding parameters can be calculated from rapid spectroscopic measurements without disturbing the system.

    Notes: The hinge-bending mode of hen egg white lysozyme is studied by a constrained minimization technique. Results with and without a bound inhibitor, tri-N-acetyl-glucosamine, are obtained. The frequency of the mode with the inhibitor is found to be 4.3 cm-1, in contrast to 3.0 cm-1 for the free enzyme. Also, the hinge-bending angle with the lowest energy is shifted 10° towards a more closed cleft in the bound species. The main contribution to these differences arise from interactions with the residues lining the cleft and those on the back side of it. Structural details that account for the energetics are presented. The method of calculation is somewhat different from a previous study [J. A. McCammon, B. R. Gelin, M. Karplus & P. G. Wolynes, (1976) Nature 262, 325-326] to reduce the likelihood of artifacts in the results.

    Notes: A procedure, CONGEN, for uniformly sampling the conformational spaceof short polypeptide segments in proteins has been implemented. Because thetime required for this sampling grows exponentially with the number of residues, parameters are introduced to limit the conformational space that has to be explored. This is done by the use of the empirical energy function ofCHARMM [B. R. Brooks, R. E. Bruccoleri, B. D. Olafson, D. J. States, S. Swaminathan and M. Karplus (1983) J. Comput. Chem. 4, 187-217] and truncating the search when conformations of grossly unfavorable energy are sampled. Tests are made to determine control parameters that optimize the search without excluding important configurations. When applied to known protein structures, the resulting procedure is generally capable of generating conformations where the lowest energy conformation matches the known structure within a rms deviation of 1 Å.

    Notes: A highly regio- and stereoselective Diels-Alder reaction between dienophiles of type I and dienes of type II (Scheme 1) gives rise to Diels-Alder adducts of type III. Upon treatment with BF3.Et2O, these adducts are smoothly converted into the corresponding enones (Scheme 6). Under mild acidic conditions, enone (±)-33 gave bicyclic diketone (±)-34 via an intramolecular Michael-type addition. Diketone (±)-34 has the correct relative configuration and a suitable ketone function at C(6) for further conversion into the hexahydrobenzofuran portion of the avermectins and milbemycins.

    Notes: Several authors have suggested a monotonic variation of the glass transition temperature (Tg) of miscible polymer blends as a function of composition. They usually express the results in terms of equations proposed by Couchman-Karasz, Gordon-Taylor, Fox, and several others. However, we have noticed that numerous systems exhibit a cusp when Tg is plotted as a function of composition (after correction for the presence of crystallinity when semi-crystalline polymers are involved). This cusp cannot appear when the Tg's of the two homopolymers involved are separated by less than about 52 degrees., It will be shown that this observation is quite general since it has been observed with several polyester/chlorinated polymer blends, polycaprolactone/nitrocellulose blends, and polystyrene/poly(vinylmethylether) blends; It will also be shown that this behavior is predicted in the framework of the free volume theory, with equations derived by Kovacs. According to this theory, above a critical concentration φc (relative to the plasticizer) and below a critical temperature Tc, the high-Tc, polymer no longer contributes to the free volume of the mixture whereas it does above Tc. This difference leads to a Tg-composition variation which has to be expressed by two different equations, one below Tc and the other above Tc, the cusp defining the limit of applicability of each equation.

    Notes: Measurements of crystallization kinetics were made for a sample of poly(α,α-diethyl-β-propiolactone) (DEPL) (syst. name: poly(oxy-2,2-diethyl-1-oxotrimethylene)). An Avrami exponent of 2 was found indicating a two-dimensional growth rate of the crystal, following a pre-determined and heterogeneous nucleation mode. Two melting peaks were found for most samples. The second melting peak (at high temperatures) is probably due to the re-crystallization of part of the sample initially present under the first melting peak. A value of 21kJ.mol-1 was also determined for the heat of fusion of DEPL by the diluent method. This value leads to a degree of crystallinity of 17% which is about four times smaller than that found for poly(pivalolactone) (syst. name: poly(oxy-2,2-dimethyl-1-oxotrimethylene)). We have also determined an equilibrium melting temperature of 531 K for this polymer and an entropy of fusion of 40J.mol-1. K-1. Finally, the surface free energies σ and σe for the lamellar crystals were found to be 12.10-7J.cm-2 and 72.10-7J.cm-2, respectively.

    Notes: The behavior of methacrylic side chain polymers in an electric field was observed for a homopolymer (1) exhibiting a negative dielectric anisotropy compared with a copolymer (2) of positive dielectric anisotropy. Homopolymer 1 orients spontaneously homeotropic and thus enables the determination of the threshold voltage, rise time and decay time. Based on these experimental results the bend elastic constant and viscosity coefficient were estimated using literature values for the dielectric anisotropy. With respect to the bend elastic constant and electrohydrodynamic effects (e.g. Williams Domains) the homopolymer behaves similarly to low-molar-mass liquid crystals, while owing to the high viscosity coefficient response times are large in magnitude.
