Stereospecific elimination of hydrogen at C-10 in eicosapentaenoic acid during the conversion to leukotriene C5.
(10L)- and (10D)-[1-14C, 10-3H]5,8,11,14,17-eicosapentaenoic acids were synthesized to investigate mechanistic and stereochemical aspects of leukotriene biosynthesis. Experiments with mastocytoma cells showed that a hydrogen is stereospecifically eliminated from C-10 during the conversion of eicosapentaenoic acid to leukotriene C5. The hydrogen lost has the pro-S (D) configuration. 5-Hydroxy-6,...
متن کاملA proposed hydrogen transfer function for cytochrome c.
Outlines of proposed mechanisms for cytochrome c oxidoreduction are presented which differ in detail from those previously published. The mechanisms, while accommodating the fact that cytochrome c is a net electron acceptor and donor in its catalytic cycle, dictate that the enzyme catalyses hydrogen transfer. It is shown that the mechanism of cytochrome c reduction fulfills a recent proposal th...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Photo Conversion of Asphaltenes Using Laser Desorption Ionization Mass Spectrometry: Fragmentation, Ring Fusion, and Fullerene Formation
The conversion or photo conversion of asphaltenes to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH’s) promoted by a laser source is analyzed using both experimental and theoretical methods. We propose that during measurements performed at an intermediate laser power, fragmentation to afford PAH’s and ring fusion to yield fused PAH’s (FPAH’s) may occur either within molecular clusters (resin case) or wi...
متن کاملDifferential quantum tunneling contributions in nitroalkane oxidase catalyzed and the uncatalyzed proton transfer reaction.
The proton transfer reaction between the substrate nitroethane and Asp-402 catalyzed by nitroalkane oxidase and the uncatalyzed process in water have been investigated using a path-integral free-energy perturbation method. Although the dominating effect in rate acceleration by the enzyme is the lowering of the quasiclassical free energy barrier, nuclear quantum effects also contribute to cataly...
متن کاملDissection of conformational conversion events during prion amyloid fibril formation using hydrogen exchange and mass spectrometry.
A molecular understanding of prion diseases requires an understanding of the mechanism of amyloid fibril formation by the prion protein. In particular, it is necessary to define the sequence of the structural events describing the conformational conversion of monomeric PrP to aggregated PrP. In this study, the sequence of the structural events in the case of amyloid fibril formation by recombin...
