Synthesis and membrane interactions of spin-label bifunctional reagents.
The design of chemical reagents that interact with biological membranes requires knowledge of the orientation and location of the reagents with respect to the membrane surface and of the partition coefficients of the reagents between membrane and water. These properties are explored here for a class of molecules having the following properties: (1) they have long, flexible chains which are, in ...
متن کاملA nitroxide-maleimide spin label.
was chemically bonded to poly-L-lysine and to bovine serum albumin (BSA) and showed a paramagnetic resonance spectrum that was sensitive to known structural changes in these molecules, such as those produced by changes in pH.2 This nitroxide-isocyanate is unfortunately not an ideal spin-labeling reagent since it is unstable and thus difficult to purify, and moreover the isocyanate group is rapi...
متن کاملA new membrane probing steroidal spin label: synthesis and applications.
The applicability of a new steroidal spin label, 3-oxo-androstan-17 beta-yl-(2",2",6",6"-tetramethyl-N-oxyl) piperidyl butan-1',4'-dioate, in studying the phase transition properties of model membrane L-alpha-dipalmitoyl phosphatidyl choline (DPPC) in the presence and absence of drugs has been explored. Its synthesis and characterization has been described herein. Besides, the localization of t...
متن کاملThermal lability of membrane proteins of age separated erythrocytes as studied by electron spin resonance spin label technique.
Thermal lability of bovine erythrocyte membrane proteins was studied by electron spin resonance using maleimide spin label. The temperature of the sample during measurements could be varied for the first time between 0 and 60 degrees C with an accuracy of +/- 0.1 degrees C. Our results show that "old" erythrocyte membrane proteins are less stable against thermal denaturation then "young" cells.
متن کاملImmobilization-induced changes in erythrocyte membrane fluidity in rabbits: a spin-label electron spin resonance study.
It has been shown that many diseases are linked to abnormalities of the erythrocyte membrane. This study observed the changes in erythrocyte membrane fluidity during an immobilization period of 21 days. The right hindlimbs of male adult New Zealand white rabbits were immobilized for 21 days. Blood samples were collected and heparinized prior to immobilization and on days 1, 3, 7, 14, and 21 of ...
