The pyridoxal form of alanine aminotransferase from pig heart catalyzes the a,/? elimination reaction with 3chloro-L-alanine as the substrate to form equimolar amounts of pyruvate, ammonia, and chloride. The maximum rate of the a,/3 elimination reaction was 2.5 pmol/min/mg at pH 7.0 (25”(Z), approximately 0.5% that of the transamination reaction between L-alanine and 2-oxoglutarate. Time-depend...

some new 3-[(5-benzylidene-2-phenyl)-3, 5-dihydro-4-h-imidazol-4-one-3-(4-bezoylhydrazono)]-indole-2-ones (viii) have been synthesized from different isatinhydrazones (ii) by condensing with 2-phenyl-5-benzylidene- 3-n (4-acetyl phenyl)-1, 5-dihydro-imidazol-4-one (vii). their chemical structures have been confirmed by ir, 1hnmr, mass and by elemental analysis. investigation of antimicrobial ac...

Photoresponsive molecular devices can be a valuable tool to promote chemical changes in response multiple signals, such as photons and pH, deliver drugs or detect physiological conditions vivo. For example, trans-chalcones (Ct) from 4′-hydroxyflavylium (F1) 7-hydroxyflavylium (F2) undergo cis-trans isomerization by photoreaction into many different structures. The takes place at slow rate pH ch...

Abstract As a monomer, the [N-(alanine)] para-styrene sulfonamide (ASS) was prepared, from the reaction of para-styrene sulfonyl chloride and (S)-(+)-alanine in the presence of KOH 1M as a base, and CH3Cl was used as solvent. The monomer confirmed using FT-IR and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Polystyrene [N-(alanine) sulfonamide] (PASS) was also prepared from the polymerization of [N-(alanine)] pa...
