    Notes: A tertiary model of the human GSTT2 Theta class glutathione transferase is presented based on the recently solved crystal structure of a related thetalike isoenzyme from Lucilia cuprina. Although the N-terminal domains are quite homologous, the C-terminal domains share less than about 20% identity. The model is used to consolidate the role of Ser 11 in the active site of the enzyme as well as to identify other residues and mechanisms of likely catalytic importance. The T2 subfamily of theta class enzymes have been shown to inactivate reactive sulfate esters arising from arylmethanols. A possible reaction pathway involving the conjugation of glutathione with one such sulfate ester, 1-menaphthyl-sulfate, is described. It is also proposed that the C-terminal region of the enzyme plays an important role in allowing substrate access to the active site. Proteins 27:118-130 © 1997 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The surfaces of ozone-pretreated polycarbonate films were subjected to further modification by thermally induced graft copolymerization with acrylic acid (AAc), sodium salt of styrene sulfonic acid (NaSS), N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMAA), N,N-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) and 3-dimethyl(methacryloyl ethyl)-ammonium propanesulfonate (DMAPS) monomers. The structure and composition at the copolymer interface were studied by angle-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). For polycarbonate films with a substantial amount of grafted polymer, the hydrophilic graft penetrates or becomes partially submerged beneath a thin surface layer of dense substrate chains. This microstructure was further supported by the water contact angle measurements. Adhesive-free adhesion studies revealed that the AAc, DMAA or DMAPS graft copolymerized polycarbonate film surface adhered strongly to another similarly modified surface (homo-interface) when brought into direct contact in the presence of water and subsequently dried. The development of the lap shear strength is dependent on the concentration of the surface graft, the microstructure of the grafted surface, the adhesion (drying) time, and the nature of the interfacial interaction. The simultaneous presence of chain entanglement and electrostatic interaction readily results in substantially enhanced adhesion strengths between two DMAPS graft copolymerized surfaces or between an AAc and a DMAA graft copolymerized surface (hetero-interface). XPS analyses of the delaminated surfaces suggest that failure occurred cohesively below the graft-substrate interface. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 357-366, 1998

    Notes: Polyaniline-tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) complexes can be synthesized either from emeraldine base or emeraldine hydrochloride by a relatively simple method. The complexes demonstrate greater stability than the emeraldine hydrochloride at elevated temperatures and under high current densities. The electrical conductivity of the complexes synthesized from emeraldine base can be varied from 〈 10-6 to 0.2 S/cm by varying the amount of TCNE incorporated. The complexes synthesized from emeraldine hydrochloride are slightly more conductive than the starting emeraldine hydrochloride. In both types of complexes, it appears that electron transfer between the polyaniline and TCNE has occurred resulting in the formation of some positively charged polyaniline nitrogen and TCNE anions.

    Notes: The changes in the structure of leucoemeraldine (LM) and emeraldine (EM) base upon doping by perchlorate anions are studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and infrared (IR) absorption spectroscopy. In the case of LM, interactions of the amine nitrogens with the perchlorate anions result in a nitrogenonium ion structure analogous to that arising from the protonation of imine nitrogens in EM by HCl except the chloride anion in the latter has been replaced by the perchlorate anion. A small amount of partially ionic and covalent chlorine is also incorporated in the LM-perchlorate complexes. The maximum electrical conductivity that is achieved in these complexes is about 4 S/cm. In contrast, the maximum conductivity of the EM-perchlorate complexes is three orders of magnitude lower. The interactions of perchlorate anions with EM base result in the preferential disappearance of the imine units over the amine units.

    Notes: The surfaces of Ar plasma-pretreated polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) films are further functionalized via UV-induced graft copolymerization with amphoteric N,N′-dimethyl(methacryloylethyl)ammonium propansulfonate (DMAPS) either in Ar atmosphere, or under atmospheric conditions and in the absence of a polymerization initiator. The so-modified PTFE films from either process are capable of exhibiting adhesive-free adhesion or auto-adhesion with one another when brought into intimate contact in the presence of a small quantity of water. The lap shear adhesion strength increases with increasing graft concentration and can readily exceed the yield strength of the PTFE substrate. Two plasma-pretreated PTFE films also readily undergo thermal graft copolymerization with concurrent lamination when lapped together in the presence of a small quantity of the DMAPS monomer solution at elevated temperature in the atmosphere. The surface compositions of the graft-copolymerized PTFE films and the delaminated surfaces were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). In most cases, adhesional failure occurred near the graft-substrate interphase. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 36: 3107-3114, 1998

    Notes: Emeraldine base films were treated with HClO4 solutions of various concentrations, with and without the addition of NaClO4. The protonation of the films was studied using angle-resolved x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) absorption spectroscopy, and ultraviolet (UV)-visible absorption spectroscopy. The protonation level can be substantially increased by the presence of salt if sufficient time is allowed for the anions to migrate into the bulk of the film. Conversely, in the partial deprotonation of emeraldine salt films, a higher retention of anions is observed in the presence of salt, even though the effect is not as pronounced as in the protonation process. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Charge transfer (CT) interactions between poly[[o-(trimethylsilyl)phenyl]acetylene] or poly(o-Me3SiPA) and some electron acceptors were studied by ultraviolet-visible and infrared absorption spectroscopy and by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, (XPS). The electron acceptors used included iodine, bromine, o-chloranil, o-bromanil, 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone (DDQ), and tetracyanoethylene (TCNE). Varying degrees of CT interactions were observed in all of the polymer/acceptor complexes studied. The electrical conductivities σ of the organic acceptor complexes exhibited a strong acceptor concentration dependence at low acceptor levels, with the DDQ complex exhibiting the highest σ. The extent of CT and the redistribution of charges resulting from the CT in all the complexes were revealed by XPS. The poly (o-Me3SiPA)/I2 complex film lost iodine spontaneously while more than half of the bromine in the poly (o-Me3SiPA)/Br2 complex existed as covalently bonded bromine, even at low halogen loading.

    Notes: The protonation of leucoemeraldine in power form and in N-methylpyrrolidinone (NMP) solution by HCIO4 and HBF4 has been studied by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), infrared (IR), and ultraviolet (UV)-visible absorption spectroscopy. In powder form, less than 25% of the amine nitrogens can be protonated in the absence of oxygen. The effects of oxygen on the degree of protonation and the distribution of amine and imine units upon deprotonation of the salt are investigated. The degree of protonation in leuccemeraldine can be increased to about 50% with 3 M HCIO4, similar to that achievable with emeraldine base in powder form. In NMP solution, leucoemeraldine is easily oxidized by dissolved oxygen. Protonation of both leucoemeraldine and emeraldine base in NMP solutions results in metastable species which gradually undergo deprotonation. The resulting products are affected by the O2 content of the solutions. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Simultaneous chemical copolymerization and oxidation of pyrrole and N-methylpyrrole by bromine an iodine has been carried out. The composition of the copolymes can be effectvely controlled by varying the monomer feed ratio. From elemental analysis the copolymer composition and the monomer reactivity ratios have been determined. As the copolymer composition changes, the IR absorption spectra show changes in the intensity of certain bands. In bromineinduced polymerization, the electrical conductivity, the electrical conductivity, thermal stability, and bromine content of the copolymer complex decrease with increase in N-mthylpyrrole fraction. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy data suggest that a fixed fraction of bromine is incroporated as covalent bromide in the copolymer complex. When iodine is used the halogen content do not show substantial differences among the copolymers but the electricdal conductivity and thermal stability of the copolymers also decrease with increase in N-methylpyrrole fraction.

    Notes: The oxidation of the 25% intrinsically oxidized polypyrrole, containing 25% [=N-] and 75% [—NH—], and the subsequent reprotonation and reduction of the highly intrinsically oxidized polymer in acid gold solution were utilized for the spontaneous and sustained reduction of gold. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic (XPS) results indicate that only elemental gold [or Au (0)] accumulates on the polymer film or powder surfaces. The N1s core-level spectra of the protonated and deprotonated polypyrrole after metal reduction suggest that the intrinsic structure of the polymer at the polymer/Au interface remains intact, even at [Au]/[N] mol ratios substantially above 1. The process, however, is limited by the decreasing effective surface area of the polymer due to Au coverage. The Au reduction behavior of polypyrrole was also compared to that of polyaniline. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
