Viral inactivation by disulfide bond reducing agents.
Disulfide bonds tie different peptide chains together and lock folded dipeptide chains into particular configurations. It is of interest to learn whether there is a differential susceptibility of viruses to inactivation by disulfide bond reduction. This may lead to information concerning differences in virion structures and may help in grouping them in different morphological categories. Dithio...
متن کاملA Potent, Versatile Disulfide-Reducing Agent from Aspartic Acid
Dithiothreitol (DTT) is the standard reagent for reducing disulfide bonds between and within biological molecules. At neutral pH, however, >99% of DTT thiol groups are protonated and thus unreactive. Herein, we report on (2S)-2-amino-1,4-dimercaptobutane (dithiobutylamine or DTBA), a dithiol that can be synthesized from l-aspartic acid in a few high-yielding steps that are amenable to a large-s...
متن کاملThe effectiveness of brief solution-focused couple therapy (BSFCT) on reducing couple burnout
Brief solution-focused therapy is a collaborative and non-pathological approach for therapy emphasizing on finding the solution by the client with the help and collaboration of the therapist. The research was conducted to examine the effectiveness of brief solution-focused couple therapy in reducing couple burnout among women. The present research has been conducted by a semi-experimental metho...
متن کاملRelevant reducing agents in remediation
Metallic iron (Fe) is often reported as a reducing agent for environmental remediation. There is still controversy as to whether Fe plays any significant direct role in the process of contaminant reductive transformation. The view that Fe is mostly a generator of reducing agents (e.g. H, H2 and Fe) and Fe oxyhydroxides has been either severely refuted or just tolerated. The tolerance is based o...
متن کاملThe Use of Reducing Agents
The presence of a reducing agent in experimental solutions is often necessary for some proteins to maintain activity and stability and/or prevent it from forming aggregates. Currently, the most popular reducing agent for proteins is dithiothreitol (DTT). However, DTT is unstable and tends to undergo oxidation in the solution in the presence of air. MicroCal research and customer experiences hav...
