Characterisation of copper-binding to the second sub-domain of the Menkes protein ATPase (MNKr2). (1/6255)

The Menkes ATPase (MNK) has an essential role in the translocation of copper across cellular membranes. In a complementary manner, the intracellular concentration of copper regulates the activity and cellular location of the ATPase through its six homologous amino-terminal domains. The roles of the six amino-terminal domains in the activation and cellular trafficking processes are unknown. Understanding the role of these domains relies on the development of an understanding of their metal-binding properties and structural properties. The second conserved sub-domain of MNK was over-expressed, purified and its copper-binding properties characterised. Reconstitution studies demonstrate that copper binds to MNKr2 as Cu(I) with a stoichiometry of one copper per domain. This is the first direct evidence of copper-binding to the MNK amino-terminal repeats. Circular dichroism studies suggest that the binding or loss of copper to MNKr2 does not cause substantial changes to the secondary structure of the protein.  (+info)

Cloning, overexpression, purification, and physicochemical characterization of a cold shock protein homolog from the hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima. (2/6255)

Thermotoga maritima (Tm) expresses a 7 kDa monomeric protein whose 18 N-terminal amino acids show 81% identity to N-terminal sequences of cold shock proteins (Csps) from Bacillus caldolyticus and Bacillus stearothermophilus. There were only trace amounts of the protein in Thermotoga cells grown at 80 degrees C. Therefore, to perform physicochemical experiments, the gene was cloned in Escherichia coli. A DNA probe was produced by PCR from genomic Tm DNA with degenerated primers developed from the known N-terminus of TmCsp and the known C-terminus of CspB from Bacillus subtilis. Southern blot analysis of genomic Tm DNA allowed to produce a partial gene library, which was used as a template for PCRs with gene- and vector-specific primers to identify the complete DNA sequence. As reported for other csp genes, the 5' untranslated region of the mRNA was anomalously long; it contained the putative Shine-Dalgarno sequence. The coding part of the gene contained 198 bp, i.e., 66 amino acids. The sequence showed 61% identity to CspB from B. caldolyticus and high similarity to all other known Csps. Computer-based homology modeling allowed the conclusion that TmCsp represents a beta-barrel similar to CspB from B. subtilis and CspA from E. coli. As indicated by spectroscopic analysis, analytical gel permeation chromatography, and mass spectrometry, overexpression of the recombinant protein yielded authentic TmCsp with a molecular weight of 7,474 Da. This was in agreement with the results of analytical ultracentrifugation confirming the monomeric state of the protein. The temperature-induced equilibrium transition at 87 degrees C exceeds the maximum growth temperature of Tm and represents the maximal Tm-value reported for Csps so far.  (+info)

Safety and pharmacokinetics of abacavir (1592U89) following oral administration of escalating single doses in human immunodeficiency virus type 1-infected adults. (3/6255)

Abacavir (1592U89) is a nucleoside analog reverse transcriptase inhibitor that has been demonstrated to have selective activity against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in vitro and favorable safety profiles in mice and monkeys. A phase I study was conducted to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of abacavir following oral administration of single escalating doses (100, 300, 600, 900, and 1,200 mg) to HIV-infected adults. In this double-blind, placebo-controlled study, subjects with baseline CD4+ cell counts ranging from < 50 to 713 cells per mm3 (median, 315 cells per mm3) were randomly assigned to receive abacavir (n = 12) or placebo (n = 6). The bioavailability of the caplet formulation relative to that of the oral solution was also assessed with the 300-mg dose. Abacavir was well tolerated by all subjects; mild to moderate asthenia, abdominal pain, headache, diarrhea, and dyspepsia were the most frequently reported adverse events, and these were not dose related. No significant clinical or laboratory abnormalities were observed throughout the study. All doses resulted in mean abacavir concentrations in plasma that exceeded the mean 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) for clinical HIV isolates in vitro (0.07 microgram/ml) for almost 3 h. Abacavir was rapidly absorbed following oral administration, with the time to the peak concentration in plasma occurring at 1.0 to 1.7 h postdosing. Mean maximum concentrations in plasma (Cmax) and the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC0-infinity) increased slightly more than proportionally from 100 to 600 mg (from 0.6 to 4.7 micrograms/ml for Cmax; from 1.0 to 15.7 micrograms.h/ml for AUC0-infinity) but increased proportionally from 600 to 1,200 mg (from 4.7 to 9.6 micrograms/ml for Cmax; from 15.7 to 32.8 micrograms.h/ml for AUC0-infinity. The elimination of abacavir from plasma was rapid, with an apparent elimination half-life of 0.9 to 1.7 h. Abacavir was well absorbed, with a relative bioavailability of the caplet formulation of 96% versus that of an oral solution (drug substance in water). In conclusion, this study showed that abacavir is safe and is well tolerated by HIV-infected subjects and demonstrated predictable pharmacokinetic characteristics when it was administered as single oral doses ranging from 100 to 1,200 mg.  (+info)

Safety and single-dose pharmacokinetics of abacavir (1592U89) in human immunodeficiency virus type 1-infected children. (4/6255)

Abacavir (formerly 1592U89) is a potent 2'-deoxyguanosine analog reverse transcriptase inhibitor that has been demonstrated to have a favorable safety profile in initial clinical trials with adults with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1 infection. A phase I study was conducted to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety of abacavir following the administration of two single oral doses (4 and 8 mg/kg of body weight) to 22 HIV-infected children ages 3 months to 13 years. Plasma was collected for analysis at predose and at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, and 8 h after the administration of each dose. Plasma abacavir concentrations were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography, and data were analyzed by noncompartmental methods. Abacavir was well tolerated by all subjects. The single abacavir-related adverse event was rash, which occurred in 2 of 22 subjects. After administration of the oral solution, abacavir was rapidly absorbed, with the time to the peak concentration in plasma occurring within 1.5 h postdosing. Pharmacokinetic parameter estimates were comparable among the different age groups for each dose level. The mean maximum concentration in plasma (Cmax) and the mean area under the curve from time zero to infinity (AUC0-infinity) increased by 16 and 45% more than predicted, respectively, as the abacavir dose was doubled from 4 to 8 mg/kg (Cmax increased from 1.69 to 3.94 micrograms/ml, and AUC0-infinity increased from 2.82 to 8.09 micrograms.h/ml). Abacavir was rapidly eliminated, with a mean elimination half-life of 0.98 to 1.13 h. The mean apparent clearance from plasma decreased from 27.35 to 18.88 ml/min/kg as the dose increased. Neither body surface area nor creatinine clearance were correlated with pharmacokinetic estimates at either dose. The extent of exposure to abacavir appears to be slightly lower in children than in adults, with the comparable unit doses being based on body weight. In conclusion, this study showed that abacavir is safe and well tolerated in children when it is administered as a single oral dose of 4 or 8 mg/kg.  (+info)

The binding affinity of Ff gene 5 protein depends on the nearest-neighbor composition of the ssDNA substrate. (5/6255)

The Ff gene 5 protein (g5p) is considered to be a nonspecific single-stranded DNA binding protein, because it binds cooperatively to and saturates the Ff bacteriophage single-stranded DNA genome and other single-stranded polynucleotides. However, the binding affinity Komega (the intrinsic binding constant times a cooperativity factor) differs by over an order of magnitude for binding to single-stranded polynucleotides such as poly[d(A)] and poly[d(C)]. A polynucleotide that is more stacked, like poly[d(A)], binds more weakly than one that is less stacked, like poly[d(C)]. To test the hypothesis that DNA base stacking, a nearest-neighbor property, is involved in the binding affinity of the Ff g5p for different DNA sequences, Komega values were determined as a function of NaCl concentration for binding to six synthetic sequences 48 nucleotides in length: dA48, dC48, d(AAC)16, d(ACC)16, d(AACC)12, and d(AAACC)9A3. The binding affinities of the protein for these sequences were indeed found to be related to the nearest-neighbor compositions of the sequences, rather than to simple base compositions. That is, the g5p binding site, which is spanned by four nucleotides, discriminates among these sequences on the basis of the relative numbers of nearest neighbors (AA, CC, and AC plus CA) in the sequence. The results support the hypothesis that the extent of base stacking/unstacking of the free, nonbound ssDNA plays an important role in the binding affinity of the Ff gene 5 protein.  (+info)

Identification of the major tamoxifen-DNA adducts in rat liver by mass spectroscopy. (7/6255)

We present here the first mass spectroscopic (MS) identification of the main tamoxifen-induced DNA adducts in rat liver. The two main adducts were isolated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and identified by MS, MS-MS and ultraviolet spectroscopy. Adduct 1 was the N-desmethyltamoxifen-deoxyguanosine adduct in which the alpha-position of the metabolite N-desmethyltamoxifen is linked covalently to the amino group of deoxyguanosine. Adduct 2 was confirmed to be the trans isomer of alpha-(N2-deoxyguanosinyl)tamoxifen, as previously suggested by co-chromatography.  (+info)

Conformation and self-association of human recombinant transforming growth factor-beta3 in aqueous solutions. (8/6255)

The transforming growth factors-beta (TGF-beta) are important regulatory peptides for cell growth and differentiation with therapeutic potential for wound healing. Among the several TGF-beta isoforms TGF-beta3 has a particularly low solubility at physiological pH and easily forms aggregates. A spectroscopic structural analysis of TGF-beta3 in solution has thus been difficult. In this study, circular dichroism spectroscopy was used to determine the secondary structural elements of TGF-beta3. In addition, the aggregation of TGF-beta3 was investigated systematically as a function of pH and salt concentration using a rapid screening method. Sedimentation equilibrium and sedimentation velocity analysis revealed that TGF-beta3 exists predominantly in two major forms: (i) monomers in solution at low pH and (ii) large precipitating aggregates at physiological pH. Under acidic conditions (pH < 3.8) the protein was not aggregated. At pH approximately 3.9, a monomer right arrow over left arrow dimer equilibrium could be detected that transformed into larger aggregates at pH > 4.1. Aggregation was pronounced in the pH range of 4.3 < pH < 9.8 with the aggregation maximum between pH 6.5 and 8. 5. The aggregation process was accompanied by a structural change of the protein. The CD spectra were characterized by an isodichroic point at 209.5 nm indicating a two-state equilibrium between TGF-beta3 dissolved in solution and aggregated TGF-beta3. Aggregated TGF-beta3 showed a higher beta-sheet content and lower beta-turn and random coil contributions compared with monomeric TGF-beta3. Both the solution structure and the aggregate structure of TGF-beta3 were different from the crystal structure. This was in contrast to TGF-beta2, which showed very similar crystal and solution structures. Under alkaline conditions (pH > 9.8) the turbidity disappeared and a further conformational change was induced. The pH dependence of the TGF-beta3 conformation in solution in the range of 2.3 < pH < 11. 0 was reversible. Aggregation of TGF-beta3 was, furthermore, influenced by the presence of salt. For pH > 3.8 the addition of salt greatly enhanced the tendency to aggregate, even in the very basic domain. Under physiological conditions (pH 7.4, cNaCl = 164 mM) TGF-beta3 has almost the highest tendency to aggregate and will remain in solution only at nanomolar concentrations.  (+info)

The instrument used in UV/ VIS spectroscopy is called a UV/ VIS spectrophotometer. To obtain absorption information, a sample is placed in the spectrophotometer and ultraviolet and/or visible light at a certain wavelength (or range of wavelengths) is shined through the sample. The spectrophotometer measures how much of the light is absorbed by the sample. The intensity of light before going into a certain sample is symbolized by ,math,I_0,math,. The intensity of light remaining after it has gone through the sample is symbolized by ,math,I,math,. The fraction of light transmittance is (,math,I/I_0,math,), which is usually expressed as a percent Transmittance (%T). From this information, the absorbance of the sample is determined for that wavelength or as a function for a range of wavelengths. Sophisticated UV/ Vis spectrophotometers often do this automatically. Although the samples could be solid (or even gaseous), they are usually liquid. A transparent cell, often called a cuvette, is used to ...

The interaction of sensors with these metal ions induced a new absorption band with a hypsochromic shift to the characteristic signal of the free sensors. A theoretical study via time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) was performed. This method has enabled us to reproduce the hypsochromic shift in the maximum UV-vis absorption band and explain the selective sensing of the ions. For all of the systems studied, the absorption band is characterized by a π → π* transition centered in the ligand. Instead of Ni2+ and Cu2+ ions, the transition is set toward the σ* molecular orbital with a strong contribution of the 3dx2-y2 transition (π → 3dx2-y2). These absorptions imply a ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) mechanism that results in the hypsochromic shift in the absorption band of these systems ...

Abstract: The method of choice for analysis of drugs in multi-component preparations is chromatographic based technique such as High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). However, chromatographic method is time consuming and requiring much effort. As a consequence, some simple methods such as UV spectrophotometry are continuously developed, especially in combination with the chemometrics software. The UV-vis spectrophotometry coupled with multivariate calibration of Partial Least Square (PLS) has been developed for quantitative analysis of paracetamol, guaiphenesin and chlopheniramine maleate in the presence of phenylpropanolamine without separation step. The calibration model is prepared by developing a series of sample mixture comprising these drugs in certain proportion. The evaluation of calibration model was based on coefficient of determination (R2) and Root Mean Square Error of Calibration (RMSEC). The result showed that UV spectrophotometry combined with PLS can be used for ...
TY - JOUR. T1 - Ultraviolet resonance Raman study of proline isomerization. AU - Harhay, Gregory P.. AU - Hudson, Bruce S.. PY - 1991/1/1. Y1 - 1991/1/1. N2 - The ultraviolet resonance Raman spectra of aqueous solutions of proline dipeptides obtained with 200- and 218-nm excitation at pH 1.5 and 6.5 are reported. The cis/trans isomer ratio for these dipeptides is known to depend on pH. The amide II′ like mode of the X-Pro peptide (imide) linkage at 1487 cm-1, involving predominantly the motions of the peptide carbon and nitrogen, is the most strongly enhanced band in the 200-250-nm region. We observe that this band does not shift appreciably with the change in isomer ratio associated with the change in pH. The same behavior is observed with the 1467-cm-1 band of aqueous polyproline, which has undergone a salt-induced isomerization. We conclude from these observations that contrary to earlier evidence the position of the amide II′ like band is not diagnostic for the isomeric state of the ...

N2 - We investigated time-resolved ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) light absorbance to identify the formation behaviour of formaldehyde (HCHO) and hydroxyl (OH) within the wavelength range of 280-400 nm in a homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine fuelled with dimethyl ether (DME). The time-resolved HCHO and OH profiles at different initial pressures showed that HCHO absorbance increased in the low-temperature reaction (LTR) and thermal-ignition preparation (TIP) regions and decreased gradually as the combustion approached the high-temperature reaction (HTR) region. At higher intake pressures, HCHO absorbance decreased and OH absorbance increased. The ...
Greetings VIPErs,. I am looking for molar absorptivity (or molar extinction coefficient) data for a handful of inorganic compounds (in solution), as a function of wavelength in the UV/visible spectrum. Can you help?. The compounds are Co(NO3)2, CoCl2, K2CrO7, AuCl3, K2CrO4, NiCl2, CuSO4, and KMnO4.. I have tried the following online resources without success: the CRC Handbook, the NIST Chemical WebBook, the Combined Chemical Dictionary, PubChem, SciFinder, and Google.. I would greatly appreciate your suggestions for resources that may have these data! If the search is to no avail, I will probably resort to tracking down a UV/vis spectrophotometer (and the various chemicals) and taking the measurements myself, but I would hugely appreciate a more reliable source, in addition to not having to do this.. Many thanks! ...

A simple, sensitive and reproducible high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed for the determination of terazosin in human plasma. The method involves a one-step single solvent extraction procedure using dichloromethane with a 0.25 ml plasma sample. Recovery values were all greater than 90% over the concentration range 0.25-100 ng/ml. Terazosin was found to adsorb to glass or plastic tubes, but this could be circumvented by using disposable plastic tubes. Also, rinsing the injector port with methanol after each injection helped to prevent any carry-over effect. The internal standard, prazosin, did not exhibit this problem. The method has a quantification limit of 0.25 ng/ml. The within- and between-day coefficient of variation and accuracy values were all less than 7% over the concentration range 0.25-100 ng/ml and hence the method is suitable for use in pharmacokinetic studies of terazosin.

0008] Organic compounds also absorb strongly in the UV and this absorption has also been exploited as an analog measurement for TOC. Differential absorbance spectroscopy, a measurement of water monitoring as a function of wavelength has been described previously. See Development of Differential UV Spectroscopy for DBP Monitoring, Korshin, G. V., et al., AWWA Foundation, (2002). Monitoring TOC using UV absorption has focused on wavelengths between 200 and 400 nanometers where strong absorption bands of organic compounds occur. Historically this range also represented that part of the UV spectrum accessible by readily available optical components. However, absorptivity of water in this region of electromagnetic spectrum is a potential problem. Consider the plot of water absorptivity versus electromagnetic wavelength shown in the graph of FIG. 1 (derived from http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/water/vibrat.html#uv). The region of wavelengths between 200 nm and 400 nm is region of particular interest because ...

Ultraviolet spectroscopy has been implemented for over thirty years to monitorvolcanic SO2 emissions. These data have provided valuable information concerningunderground magmatic conditions, which have been of utility in eruption forecastingefforts. During the last decade the traditionally used correlation spectrometers have beenupgraded with miniature USB coupled UV spectrometers, opening a series of exciting newempirical possibilities for understanding volcanoes and their impacts upon the atmosphere.Here we review these technological developments, in addition to the scientific insightsthey have precipitated, covering the strengths and current limitations of this approach.
Rate coefficients for the inactivation of several penicillin in acids and alkalis at 30°C have been determined by means of ultraviolet spectroscopy. The case of benzylpenicillin, though well investigated in the past, has been studied again and, in the light of new experiments, a scheme detailing the proportions of the various degradation products has been proposed. A number of substituted phenylpenicillins have been synthesised, and their reactions with acid have been investigated. Product analysis was carried out by means of TLG and NMR studies, the degradation products (penicilloic, penilloic, penillic and penicillenic acids) having been previously prepared and characterised. From the manner in which the phenyl substituent on the penicillin affects the rate coefficient, it is deduced that the mechanism of inactivation by acids involves a rate-determining intramolecular attack by the side-chain carbonyl group on the protonated β-lactam function. An intermediate oxazolone-thiazolidine ...
The handbook presents useful analysis and assignment of spectra and structural elucidation of organic and organometallic molecules. The correlation charts are compiled from an extensive search of spectroscopic literature and contain current, detailed information that includes new results for many compounds. The handbook includes graphical data charts for nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of the most useful nuclei, as well as infrared and ultraviolet spectrophotometry. Because mass spectrometry data is not best represented graphically, the data are presented in tabular form, where mass spectrometry can be used for analyses and structural determinations in tandem with other techniques. In addition to presenting absorption bands and intensities for a variety of important functional groups and chemical families, the book also discusses instrument calibration, diagnostics, common solvents, fragmentation patterns, several practical conversion tables, and laboratory safety ...

Synonyms: Creatine kinase, CK, CPK.. CPT Code: 82550. Description: CPK is an intracellular enzyme found in high concentrations in skeletal muscle, myocardium, and brain. Damage to these tissues results in elevated serum levels of CK. Three isoforms are used to determine the tissue origin of serum CK: skeletal muscle (MM), myocardium (MB), and brain (BB).. Method: Analysis may be part of a selected automated chemistry profile or may be ordered separately. Serum should be collected in a plain red-top tube. Avoid hemolysis. All determinations of CK levels should be done before invasive diagnostic procedures such as electromyography or muscle biopsy. Ultraviolet spectrophotometry is most common.. Normal Values: Values depend on the method used but generally range from 50 to 200 U/L for males; values for females are 25% lower. Black individuals (males more so than females) may have CK levels above normal values. Such values do not correlate with muscle mass and are not associated with an occult ...
The extinction coefficient is present in the beer-lambert law (A=ECL). However, how would I calculate the extinction coefficient from a graph where concentration is on the x-axis and optical density on the y-axis? Would I have to work out a gradient? And so, where do I go next to work out the extinction coefficient ...
Detection of Hg2+ with high sensitivity is of great significance in the biochemical sensing field. Quantitative of Hg2+ was realized based on the influence of Hg2+ on the UV-vis absorption performance of Au-Pt-Au core-shell nanoraspberry (APA)-rhodamine-6G (R6G) structure. First, APA sol was added into R6G indicator solution and the UV-vis absorption signal intensity of R6G was evidently promoted. The signal intensity monotonously increased as more APA sol was added. However, when HgCl2 solution was introduced, the signal intensity declined. A linear relationship between Hg2+ concentration and signal intensity at 527 nm was revealed, based on which quantitative determination of Hg2+ could be realized. Hg2+ detection sensitivity was measured to be 0.031 a.u./M with a limit of detection of 10-7 M and the response time was 20 s. A high Hg2+ detection selectivity over Cu2+, Na+, Li+, and K+ was demonstrated. Due to its simplicity and high sensitivity, the proposed method could find an extensive ...
As you decrease the concentration the absorbance decreases and they should both become zero together so the intercept should be zero; that means from Y=mx+c for c=0 you only need Y=mx. For A=ecl, l=1cm and so except for its contribution to the units you can ignore it. That leaves you with A=ec, which is in the form Y=mx. As you vary the concentration the absorbance changes. The slope of their linear relationship (in the Beers law range, A,~2) is the extinction coefficient. To lay it out explicitly ...
Different methods have been developed to determine or estimate the purity and concentration of DNA, such as UV spectrophotometry (1), diphenylamine assay (1, 2), restriction enzyme digestion and gel electrophoresis. Each procedure has advantages and disadvantages. For example, UV spectrophotometry is quite simple for the determination of DNA concentration and purity. However, it but can not be used to estimate the DNA concentration if the DNA sample is contaminated with RNA and some degraded DNA. Moreover, when the DNA sample is contaminated with some organic materials and/or ions, which will inhibit enzymatic reactions (such as restriction digestion), this method can not give any information about the contamination. In these cases, the restriction digestion and gel electrophoresis method can be used to distinguish DNA, degraded DNA, RNA and different contaminants and estimate the DNA concentration if a standard marker is used ...

The molar absorptivities of two different molecules, adenosine and inosine were determined in this lab using UV-Vis and Beers law. The changes in UV-Vis spectra will be observed to determine changes in concentration of both adenosine and inosine. In order to do this, the molar absorptivity (ε) of both of these molecules will be known. A calibration curve from the class data will be created. From this data the standard deviation, Confidence Interval (90% and 95% confidence) will be calculated and Grubbs test will be performed to determine the outlier. ...
Instrumentation is used in the undergraduate chemistry curriculum to help demonstrate the fundamental aspects of chemical reactions and demonstrate how it can be used to determine certain properties of a chemical system. For example, absorbance spectroscopy teaches students about transmission and absorption of radiation by a compound and how these measurements can be used to determine concentration or chemical reaction order. Chromatography illustrates to students how the structure of compounds can help isolate them from others. When certain techniques are coupled together, the concepts are layered and even more can be learned about the system being studied.

Two compounds of organic molybdate-alkali salt: [H(4,4-bipy)]2[K2Mo8O26](I) and H3 [Na Mo8 O26] (4,4-bipy)5 (H2O)4 (II), with beta-[Mo8O26]4- anion, were synthesized. The relationship between their properties and structures was studied by using FTIR, Raman, NIR-Vis and fluorescence etc. They possess isolating beta-[Mo8O26]4- anion, whose terminal O atoms combine with alkali. The FTIR and Raman spectra showed that the vibrational frequencies of the group are related to the structure of the materials. In UV-Vis spectra of compound (I) and (II), there is a characteristic wide peak at 280-300 nm. The fluorescence spectra of compound (I) and (II) were studied, which showed that the wide emission peak is from 450 to 650 nm and excited by 350 nm for compound (I), and the emission peak is from 400 to 550 nm and excited by 325 nm for compound (II). For compound (I), the intensity of emission becomes stronger with decreasing of temperature, and so does the fluorescence lifetime.

After a first work on [email protected] Pb12 clusters, the authors modeled energies as well as UV/Vis and IR spectra of several actinide metals encapsulated in C28 cages through the use of DFT and TD-DFT. For modeling such compounds with these heavy elements, the relativistic effects implemented through ZORA are quite important, for instance in the spectroscopy of these compounds. Dr. Dognon has also indicated that the bond energy decomposition in ADF, the utility of the ADF GUI for building structures / analyzing results, as well as the good parallelization of the ADF program were all critical to the studies..

In this paper, we study the change mechanism of UV of three amino acids with positively charged R-group, which are processed under alternating electric field. We prepared 0.01mol/L aqueous solution of lysine(K), arginine(R), histidine(H) respectively, then disposed them at different frequency electric field for 5 minutes, scanning UV spectrum finally. As a result, red/blue shift and hyperchromic/hypochromic effect arise in spectrums of these three amino acids. Compared with control group, ΔλKmax is between -0.4nm and 0.8nm, ΔλRmax between -0.4nm and 0.8nm, ΔλHmax between -2.2nm and -0.6nm; ΔεKmax is between -2.657% and 2.143%, ΔεRmax between -4.997% and -1.581%, ΔεHmax between -2.098% and 0.314%. The levels of the amino acid molecules and the energy levels difference are affected by the excitation of alternating electric field. The changes of energy level difference result in the occurrence of UV spectrum red/blue shift. There is reduced trend of Δλmax along with increasing ...

where 40 is the average extinction coefficient for RNA. In addition, the A260/A280 ratio can be used to estimate RNA purity. An A260/A280 ratio between 1.8 and 2.1 indicates a highly pure RNA sample.. UV spectroscopy is relatively simple to perform but has several drawbacks. It does not discriminate between RNA and DNA so it is advisable to DNAse treat RNA samples before quantifying. DNA in the sample will lead to an overestimation of RNA concentration. Since proteins and residual phenol from the purification can interfere with absorbance readings, it is important to remove these contaminants in purification. Also, absorbance readings are dependent on pH and ionic strength. Dilute RNA samples in TE (pH 8.0) and use TE to blank the spectrophotometer before taking absorbance readings.. An alternative method for quantifying RNA samples is to use fluorescent dyes such as RiboGreen (Invitrogen). RiboGreen exhibits a strong fluorescent signal when bound to nucleic acids. Samples are quantified in a ...
