    Notes: The potentials of mean force (pmfs) for rotation around the X1 aromatic side-chain dihedrals of the zwitterionic bis-penicillamine enkephalin pentapeptide have been determined in both aqueous and saline solution. These side chains are known to be associated with the pharmacophore and their conformational populations are thought to be critical for activity. It is found that the association between chloride ions and the peptide in saline solution simulations has profound effects on the relative energies of the g-, g+, and t conformations, and also the barriers between them. Using the pmfs we have also calculated the respective Boltzmann-weighted 3Jαβ vicinal coupling constants. The agreement between the calculated and experimentally determined coupling constants is poor for the pmf in pure water, but substantially improved for the pmf determined in saline solution. Reasons for these differences appear to be related to the experimental conditions. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Some results are reported on the alkyllithium-initiated polymerization of butadiene in cyclopentane in presence of 2,′2-bis(4,4,6-trimethyl-1,3-dioxane). The effect of this lithium chelating agent on one-unit model active centres is also reported. Comparisons are made with another highly efficient polymer structure modifier, 1,2-dipiperidinoethane. Conclusions are reached on the reasons why both are particularly effective in inducing the formation of polydienes having extremely high vinyl content.

    Notes: A procedure for the construction of complete protein structures from only αcarbon coordinates is described. This involves building the backbone by sequential addition of Pro, Gly, or Ala residues. This main chain structure is then refined using molecular dynamics. Side chains are constructed by sequential addition of atoms with intermediate molecular dynamics refinement. For α lytic protease (a structure that is mostly β sheet) a backbone root mean square deviation (RMSD) of 0.19 Å and an overall RMSD of 1.24 Å from the crystallographic coordinates are attained. For troponin C (67% β-helix), where the coordinates are available only for the α-carbons, a backbone RMSD of 0.41 Å and an overall RMSD of 1.68 Å are attained (fits kindly provided by Dr. Michael James and Natalie Strynadka). For flavodoxin a backbone RMSD of 0.49 Å and an overall RMSD of 1.64 Å were attained.

    Notes: A simple method is presented for projecting the conformation of extended secondary structure elements of peptides and proteins that extend over four Cαatoms onto a simple two-dimensional surface. A new set of two degrees of freedom is defined, a pseudo-dihedral involving four sequential Cαatoms, as well as the triple scalar product for the vectors describing the orientation of the three intervening peptide groups. The method provides a reduction in dimensionality, from the usual combination of multiple φ,ψ pairs to a single pair, yielding valuable information concerning the structure and dynamics of these important elements. The new two-dimensional surface is explored by reference to 63 selected protein crystal structures together with a comparison of model built peptides representing the common secondary structural elements. Dynamical aspects on this new surface are examined using a molecular dynamics trajectory of Basic Pancreatic Trypsin Inhibitor. © 1997 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The titanium static mixer reactor, demonstrated for a variety of vaccine processes during the late 197s, was investigated for the production of attenuated hepatitis A virus antigen from anchorage-dependent MRC-5 cells. This reactor system used Charles River Biotechnological Services cabinets for monitoring and process control. Cell inoculation protocols, using 6000-10,000 cells/cm2, resulted on over 95% attachment at both the laboratory and pilot scales. Indirect monitoring techniques using oxygen, glucose, L-serine, and L-glutamine uptake rates were indicative of cell growth prior to virus inoculation as well as environmental and/or nutrient limitations. Seven laboratory-scale (3900 cm2) runs and one pilotscale (265,000 cm2) run were conducted to investigate refeeding regiments, parallel versus perpendicular element orientation, increased element surface area per unit volume, and scale-up performance. In general, lysate antigen yields achieved were similar to those of parallel T-flasks cultivated under similar conditions. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Human growth hormone (hGH) is a polypeptide with 191 amino acids and a molecular mass of 22 kilodaltons. With the aid of computer molecular simulation, an hGH analog was created by altering an hGH gene to reflect the change of one amino acid (glycine [G] 120 to arginine [R]) within the third α-helix of the hGH molecule. This hGH analog, named hGHG120R, was found to be an hGH antagonist. It may have important implications in treating human conditions in which hGH levels are abnormally high, as found in type I diabetics. Several hundred milligrams of purified hGHG120R were needed to determine the biological activity of the antagonist in animal models. A multistep downstream process was developed to purify hGHG120R from cultured mouse L cells transfected with the hGHG120R gene. The process consisted of cell clarification, salt precipitation, membrane ultrafiltration, reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography, phase separation, and lyophiliation. This work discusses the rationale for the design of the process and experimental results on the purification of hGHG120R using the process. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Kinetics of macromolecules reacting with ligand (1980)

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: In order to get an idea of the transient and stationary behavior to be looked for in a biological macromolecular system such as an enzyme or respiratory protein in the presence of its ligands, we have studied the coupled kinetic equations applicable to a simple allosteric model, based on the concerted two-state model of Monod et al. [(1965) J. Mol. Biol. 12, 88-118]. Exact solutions of the equations are given for three special cases, and two complementary methods are developed to generate approximate solutions in the general case, always, however, with the assumption that the equations are linear due to maintenance of ligand activity at a constant level. Subject to this assumption, these approximation methods have applicability to coupled rate equations beyond those considered here. As an illustration of how the results can provide the basis for a detailed analysis of actual kinetic data on working proteins, the formalism is applied to the kinetics of binding of oxygen by hemoglobin. An important result is that although time evolution to the steady state is in principle determined by several relaxation times, the effect of cooperativity for the case considered is to establish the dominance of one of them relative to the others. This suggests that for a macromolecule with a large number of binding sites, only one, or at most a few, of the many possible relaxation times are significant for specification of cooperative kinetics. The methods developed here, which will be applied more extensively elsewhere, provide a systematics for finding these dominant relaxation times.

    Notes: Results are presented on the preparation and characterization of batch emulsion copolymers of butyl methacrylate and glycidyl methacrylate (GMA). The two main problems occurring during an emulsion copolymerization with GMA are partial hydrolysis of the epoxy groups and internal crosslinking of the latex particles formed. The influence of chain transfer agents (CTA) on the degree of crosslinking was investigated. Furthermore, the effect of reaction temperature and the addition of methacrylic acid on the sol/gel content of the polymer formed and on the rate of epoxy hydrolysis were investigated. It was found that lowering the reaction temperature did not increase the sol content; however, it significantly decreased the extent of hydrolysis. The addition of a CTA (especially CBr4) increased the sol content of the polymer, and good control over the molecular mass was achieved. The addition of methacrylic acid showed that this monomer can be used without any complications with respect to the control of the sol content of the polymer formed. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
