The Toughening of Cyanate-Ester Polymers Part II: Chemical Modification
_______________________________________________________________________________________ A fracture mechanics approach has been used to investigate how the addition of high-temperature resistant thermoplastic modifiers can increase the fracture energy, Gc, of brittle cyanate-ester polymers. Tests were performed using adhesive joint specimens at -55, 21 and 150°C. The fracture energies of poly(et...
متن کاملChemical Force Microscopy Nanoscale Probing of Fundamental Chemical Interactions
Intermolecular forces impact a wide spectrum of problems in condensed phases: from molecular recognition, self-assembly, and protein folding at the molecular and nanometer scale, to interfacial fracture, friction, and lubrication at a macroscopic length scale. Understanding these phenomena, regardless of the length scale, requires fundamental knowledge of the magnitude and range of underlying w...
متن کاملProbing electrostatic interactions in cytochrome c using site-directed chemical modification.
This communication reports the generation of an electrostatic probe using chemical modification of methionine side chains. The alkylation of methionine by iodoacetamide was achieved in a set of Saccharomyces cerevisiae iso-1-cytochrome c mutants, introducing the nontitratable, nondelocalized positive charge of a carboxyamidomethylmethionine sulfonium (CAMMS) ion at five surface and one buried s...
متن کاملLanthanide-mediated phosphoester hydrolysis and phosphate elimination from phosphopeptides.
Lanthanide ions can mediate both phosphomonoester hydrolysis and beta-elimination of inorganic phosphate from polypeptide substrates under near-physiological conditions of pH, temperature, and salt.
متن کاملAccelerator mass spectrometry for assaying irreversible covalent modification of an enzyme by acetoacetic ester
Protein modification (sometimes known as crosslinking) often requires two or more steps to affix a small molecule irreversibly. Two-step reductive alkylation of the enzyme rabbit muscle aldolase with ethyl 3-C-acetoacetate and sodium cyanoborohydride attaches less radioactivity than with cyanoborohydride omitted. The C level incorporated into aldolase corresponds to only about 15–30 modified pr...
