چکیده

We present a biocompatible ionic liquid, triethyl ammonium acetate (TEAA), that attenuates the denaturation action of a non-ionic chaotrope, urea, on the industrially relevant proteolytic enzyme α-chymotrypsin.

Water and a protic ionic liquid acted as refolding additives for chemically denatured enzymes.

In this communication, we present the ability of water and a protic ionic liquid, triethyl ammonium phosphate (TEAP) to act as refolding additives for the urea-induced chemical denaturated state of the two enzymes, α-chymotrypsin and succinylated Con A. We show that the enzymatic activity is regained and in certain circumstances enhanced.

Soluble, folded and active subtilisin in a protic ionic liquid.

The activity of proteases chymotrypsin and subtilisin dissolved in a range of protic hydroxylalkylammonium ionic liquids was tested against the model substrate APEE (N-acetyl-L-phenylalanine ethyl ester); activity was only observed for subtilisin in diethanolammonium chloride (DEA Cl), while chymotrypsin was not active in any PIL tested.

A green approach to offset the perturbation action of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium iodide on α-chymotrypsin.

Recently, studies have provided evidence for the negative effects of ionic liquids (ILs), "greener solvents," on proteins [Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2014, 16, 5514]. The search to offset the negative effects of ILs on proteins has come into limelight as the maintenance of a "green solvent medium" is a great challenge for chemists and biochemists. As the first step in this search, 1-butyl-3-methy...

Influence of Reactive Oxygen Species on the Enzyme Stability and Activity in the Presence of Ionic Liquids

In this paper, we have examined the effect of ammonium and imidazolium based ionic liquids (ILs) on the stability and activity of proteolytic enzyme α-chymotrypsin (CT) in the presence of cold atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ). The present work aims to illustrate the state of art implementing the combined action of ILs and APPJ on the enzyme stability and activity. Our circular dichroism (...

Catalytic Oxidative-Extractive Deep Desulfurization of Diesel Fuel by N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone-Based Protic Acidic Ionic Liquids (PAILs)

Inexpensive and low-viscosity Protic Acidic Ionic Liquids (PAILs) of N-metheyl-2-pyrrolidone formate, acetate, and propionate abbreviated as [Hnmp][HCOO], [Hnmp][CH3COO] and [Hnmp][CH3CH2COO] respectively, were prepared and characterized by FT-IR and H-NMR. Deep oxidative and extractive desulfurization of a simulated oil and a real diesel containing 1000 ppm...
