Reaction of diethyl pyrocarbonate with nucleic acid components. I. Adenine.
The use of diethyl pyrocarbonate as a nuclease inhibitor in the preparation of RNA of high molecular weight has prompted a study of the possible reactions of this compound with nucleic acid components under the conditions generally employed for providing inhibition. The first substrate investigated was adenine, which has been found to undergo ring opening with the formation of 5(4)-N-carbethoxy...
متن کاملEffect of diethyl pyrocarbonate modification on the calcium binding mechanism of the sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase.
Diethyl pyrocarbonate was used to modify histidyl residues on the sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase. Difference spectra of the N-carbethoxyhistidyl derivative indicated that most all the histidyl residues on the enzyme had been modified. These residues could be divided into two populations on the basis of their reaction rate with the reagent. It could then be shown that enzyme inhibition followed m...
متن کاملStabilization of tumor antigens by chemical modification with diethyl pyrocarbonate.
C3H mice were immunized with MH134 tumors modified with two different chemicals, DEPC and TNBS, and the tumor-neutralizing activities of the spleen cells were examined after separating the cells by a Nylon-wool column, plastic dish, or treatment with specific antibodies (anti-mouse IgG and anti-mouse theta sera). The effector cells induced in mice by immunization with TNBS-treated tumors were T...
متن کاملHistidine modification with diethyl pyrocarbonate shows heterogeneity of benzodiazepine receptors.
The effect of diethyl pyrocarbonate modification of histidine on the specific binding of [3H]diazepam and its enhancement with muscimol and (+/-)-pentobarbital was investigated. Diethyl pyrocarbonate treatment produced a dose-related inhibition of specific [3H]diazepam binding to rat brain membranes with a maximal inhibition of approximately 40% at 1 mM. Scatchard analysis of the binding data s...
متن کاملPolyribosome isolation in the presence of diethyl pyrocarbonate.
Isolation of polyribosomes from wheat embryos and corn root tips in the presence of diethyl pyrocarbonate showed this reagent to have a protective effect on polyribosome structure. In addition, the use of diethyl pyrocarbonate allowed initial homogenization to be performed under less stringent conditions than those normally employed for polyribosome isolation. The use of the reagent is however ...
