چکیده
We report that N(2),N(6)-bis(4-nitrophenyl)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide, which is related to known isophthalic acid dianilides, transports Cl(-) ions through phospholipid bilayer membranes and shows clear evidence of channel activity.

Synthesis of CuO nanorods via thermal decomposition of copper-dipicolinic acid complex
Template-free CuO nanorods were synthesized through a three-step chemical method with no water-insoluble materials. The first step included the preparation of a Cu-complex, which was obtained from dipicolinic acid, L-lysine, and copper nitrate. Then, as the second step, the obtained solution was allowed to be relaxed for a week to and formation of some blue single-crystals single crystals, whic...
متن کاملSynthesis of 2,6-bis-(oxazolyl)pyridine ligands for luminescent Ln(III) complexes
New bis-(oxazolyl)pyridine ligands for Ln(III) ions were prepared using a expeditious methodology from threonine and dipicolinic acid chloride. The synthetic strategy includes a dehydration step to give a bis-dehydroaminobutyric acid derivative followed by bromination and cyclization with DBU. Photophysical studies of Eu(III) and Tb(III) complexes of these ligands showed that the 2,6-bis-(oxazo...
متن کاملDipicolinic acid (DPA) assay revisited and appraised for spore detection.
Delayed gate fluorescence detection of dipicolinic acid (DPA), a universal and specific component of bacterial spores, has been appraised for use in a rapid analytical method for the detection of low concentrations of bacterial spores. DPA was assayed by fluorimetric detection of its chelates with lanthanide metals. The influence of the choice and concentration of lanthanide and buffer ions on ...
متن کاملRegulation of dipicolinic acid biosynthesis in sporulating Bacillus cereus. Characterization of enzymic changes and analysis of mutants.
Some of the early enzymes in the lysine-biosynthetic pathway also function for dipicolinic acid synthesis in sporulating Bacillus cereus T. 1. The first enzyme, aspartokinase, loses its sensitivity to feedback inhibition by lysing. This change occurs before the time of dipicolinic acid synthesis but at a time when diaminopimelic acid is required for spore cortex formation. 2. A possible regulat...
