چکیده

In a previous paper (2) it was demonstrated mat nitrogen mustards caused a considerable decrease in the viscosity of sodium thymonucleate solutions. The present work was undertaken to determine whether this effect was due to an interaction of the nitrogen mustards with thymonucleate or some of its constituents. An interaction between nitrogen mustards and thymonucleate was demonstrated but could not be correlated with the effect on viscosity.

The effect of nitrogen mustards on the viscosity of thymonucleate.

The nitrogen mustards used in these experiments were the hydrochlorides of ethyl bis (/3 chloroethyl) amine, methyl bis (/3 chloroethyl) amine, and tris (fl chloroethyI) amine. Sodium nucleate was prepared from calf thymus by a modification of Hammarsten's procedure (5). After the preliminary extraction, filtration, and addition of CaC12, a precipitate was obtained by bringing the final ethanol...

DNA sequence selectivity of guanine-N7 alkylation by nitrogen mustards.

Nitrogen mustards alkylate DNA primarily at the N7 position of guanine. Using an approach analogous to that of the Maxam-Gilbert procedure for DNA sequence analysis, we have examined the relative frequencies of alkylation for a number of nitrogen mustards at different guanine-N7 sites on a DNA fragment of known sequence. Most nitrogen mustards were found to have similar patterns of alkylation, ...

Mechanisms of DNA sequence selective alkylation of guanine-N7 positions by nitrogen mustards.

Quantitative determinations were carried out of the relative reaction rates of several nitrogen mustards at various guanine-N7 positions in DNA fragments of known sequence. The findings suggest structural hypotheses of the origins of the reaction selectivities. End-labeled DNA fragments were reacted with nitrogen mustards, and the guanine-N7 alkylation sites were analyzed by gel electrophoresis...

Effects of carbon nanotubes on properties of the fluorouracil anticancer drug: DFT studies of a CNT-fluorouracil compound

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to investigate the effects of a carbon nanotube (CNT) on the properties of the fluorouracil (F-Uracil) anticancer drug. To achieve the purpose, a molecular model including both of F-Uracil and CNT molecules was created to represent the CNT@F-Uracil compound. The optimized parameters indicated that the new compound could show new proper...

بررسی رشد بلور KDP تحت تأثیر یون‌های فلزی به ویژه +3Al

Effect of Al3+ ions on the optical quality, growth rate, shape, and structure of potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystal was investigated. Growth method was based on the “point seed” method in a solution with optimum concentration, following spontaneous growth at room temperature. FTIR spectrum showed neutralization of O-H group in KDP crystal by Al3+ ions. UV-Visible spectrum of the cryst...
