Sequence-specific inhibition of a nonspecific protease.
A nonspecific exopeptidase, aminopeptidase N (APN), is inhibited sequence-specifically by a synthetic host, cucurbit[7]uril (Q7), which binds with high affinity and specificity to N-terminal phenylalanine (Phe) and 4-(aminomethyl)phenylalanine (AMPhe) and prevents their removal from the peptide. Liquid chromatography experiments demonstrated that in the presence of excess Q7, APN quantitatively...
متن کاملPhagocytic Activities of Neutrophilic Leukocytes
This study evaluated the phagocytic activities of neutrophilic leukocytes in both sexes during reproductive age and in women in different phases of the menstrual cycle and in pregnancy. In this study, 9 male and 12 female medical students, 17 to 20 years of age, 23 pregnant women and 9 women after delivery were evaluated. Heparinized blood was incubated with heat killed bacteria Staphylococcus ...
متن کاملNeutrophil Elastase in the capacity of the "H2A-specific protease".
The amino-terminal tail of histones and the carboxy-tail of histone H2A protrude from the nucleosome and can become modified by many different posttranslational modifications (PTM). During a mass spectrometric proteome analysis on haematopoietic cells we encountered a histone PTM that has received only little attention since its discovery over 35 years ago: truncation of the histone H2A C-tail ...
متن کاملSpecific and nonspecific activities of the visual system in rabbits.
Although it has been shown that the rises in cortical activities by 3 and 5/sec flash stimulations verified in the frequency response of the visual cortex of unanesthetized rabbits (MIMURA and SATO, 1965) can be correlated with the excitability changes of 5/sec (BIsHOP, 1933) or 4-5/sec (PEARLMAN, 1963) in the visual cortex of the rabbit, it was not ascertained whether these excitability change...
متن کاملSEQUESTRATION OF LEUKOCYTES BY THE ISOLATED PERFUSED RAT LUNG
The sequestration of rat leukocytes and bone marrow cells by the lung vasculature was studied using an isolated perfused rat lung preparation. The passage of latex particles of 7.6 µm in diameter and non-hematopoietic cells through the lung blood vessels was also studied. Leukocytes and bone marrow cells were reversibly sequestered from circulation, whereas, latex particles and non-hematop...
