Carboxyl Groups in Carbohydrate-concanavalin a Interaction
I. The role of carboxyl groups in the binding of specific carbohydrates to concanavalin A, the phytohemagglutinin of the jack bean, has been studied using two techniques: (I) H + titration in the presence and absence of methyl a-D-mannopyranoside, a specifically bound carbohydrate ligand and (2) chemical modification of the protein carboxyl groups employing glycine methyl ester and a water-solu...
متن کاملBuoyant Titration of Bovine Mercaptalbumin Chemically Modified at the Carboxyl Groups
Bovine mercaptalbumin has been modified at the carboxyl groups by means of I-ethyl-3 (3-dimethylisopropyl) carbodiimide and glycine amide. A stable derivative was obtained after modification of 54 groups. The modified protein differed only slightly from the unmodified one with respect to the optical rotatory dispersion parameters ao, bo and ~. This preparation was studied in the analytical ultr...
متن کاملA Histochemical Method for Distinguishing between Side-chain and Terminal (α-acylamido) Carboxyl Groups of Proteins
The specificity of the Barrnett-Seligman method for the histochemical demonstration of alpha-acylamido carboxyl groups (C terminal) of proteins is dependent on the conversion of such groups to ketones by the action of acetic anhydride and absolute pyridine. Studies on model compounds show that the side-chain carboxyl groups also react in the method and that most of the final color developed can...
متن کاملCooperative deformation of carboxyl groups in functionalized carbon nanotubes
Functionalized carbon nanotubes have tremendous potential for nanotechnology applications such as in the fabrication of polymeric carbon fibers. However, approaches to design carbon nanotube structures by using functional groups as glue and carbon nanotubes as stiff building blocks to reach superior mechanical strength and toughness at the fiber level with limited amount of materials remains po...
متن کاملQuantification of carboxyl groups in carbodiimide cross-linked collagen sponges.
Glutaraldehyde (GA) fixation of bioprosthetic tissue is a well adapted technique, with commercial products on the market for almost 40 years. Amine groups present in tissue react with GA to form different types of cross-links. An estimation of the degree of cross-linking of the tissue can be obtained by measuring the concentration of residual amine groups, which is frequently carried out with t...
