The reaction of [AuCl(P-N)], in which P-N represents a heterofunctional phosphine ligand, with pentafluorothiophenol, HSC(6)F(5), gives the thiolate gold derivatives [Au(SC(6)F(5))(P-N)] (P-N = PPh(2)py (1), PPh(2)CH(2)CH(2)py (2), or PPhpy(2) (3)). Complex [Au(SC(6)F(5))(PPh(2)py)] (1) reacts with [Au(OTf)(PPh(2)py)] in a 1:1 or 1:2 molar ratio to afford the di- or trinuclear species [Au(2)(μ-...

The prime requirements for the spin transfer torque based ferromagnetic (FM)/nonmagnetic (NM) bilayer spin devices are (i) the absence of two-magnon scattering (TMS) noise, (ii) minimum energy dissipation and (iii) fast switching. To realize these objectives we have studied the thickness, Py (permalloy) thicknesses (tPy) and b-Ta thicknesses (tTa), dependent magnetization dynamics behaviour of ...

Aggregation of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) at sites of nerve-muscle contact is one of the earliest events to occur during the development of the neuromuscular junction. The stimulus presented to the muscle by nerve and the mechanisms underlying postsynaptic differentiation are not known. The purpose of this study was to examine the distribution of phosphotyrosine (PY)-containing...

It has previously been shown that osmium tetroxide, pyridine (Os,py) and osmium tetroxide, 2,2'-bipyridine (Os,bipy) are powerful probes of the DNA structure. To increase the possibilities of the detection of osmium-modified DNAs polyclonal antibodies against DNA modified with Os,py and Os,bipy were elicited in rabbits. Specificity of these sera or purified IgG was tested by ELISA and retardati...

In this research, the chemical recycling of terephthalic acid from PET waste by using nano Fe3O4@Py-APTS as solid support was reported. The performance of organically modified nano magnetic was examined in detail and the results were compared with unsupported reactions as the model. By using the solid support, the required time for complete glycolysis, consumption of solvent and catalyst, decre...

The Zaire ebolavirus protein VP24 was previously demonstrated to inhibit alpha/beta interferon (IFN-alpha/beta)- and IFN-gamma-induced nuclear accumulation of tyrosine-phosphorylated STAT1 (PY-STAT1) and to inhibit IFN-alpha/beta- and IFN-gamma-induced gene expression. These properties correlated with the ability of VP24 to interact with the nuclear localization signal receptor for PY-STAT1, ka...

Five peaks of endonuclease activity showing a preference for ultraviolet-damaged DNA have been chromatographically identified from extracts of Micrococcus luteus. They are numerically designated as I to V in order of their elution from phosphocellulose (Whatman P-11) columns. The first two of these peaks have been highly purified by a combination of gel filtration and affinity chromatography an...

Short-lived nucleoprotein complexes (r-py complex) containing replicating polyoma DNA were isolated from infected cells after lysis with Triton X-100. The Triton lysing procedure of Green, Miller, and Hendler (1971) releases most complexes containing supercoiled viral DNA (py complex) from nuclei, but liberates only a portion of r-py complexes. r-py Complexes are associated more strongly with n...

Protein Y (PY) is an Escherichia coli cold-shock protein which has been proposed to be responsible for the repression of bulk protein synthesis during cold adaptation. Here, we present in vivo and in vitro data which clarify the role of PY and its mechanism of action. Deletion of yfiA, the gene encoding protein PY, demonstrates that this protein is dispensable for cold adaptation and is not res...

Various new thermally air- and water-stable alkyl and aryl analogues of (acac-O,O)2Ir(R)(L), R-Ir-L (acac-O,O = kappa2-O,O-acetylacetonate, -Ir- is the trans-(acac-O,O)2Ir(III) motif, R = CH3, C2H5, Ph, PhCH2CH2, L = Py) have been synthesized using the dinuclear complex [Ir(mu-acac-O,O,C3)-(acac-O,O)(acac-C3)]2, [acac-C-Ir]2, or acac-C-Ir-H2O. The dinuclear Ir (III) complexes, [Ir(mu-acac-O,O,C...
