In the present communication different curcumin bioconjugates viz. 4,4'-di-O-glycinoyl-curcumin, 4,4'-di-O-d-alaninoyl-curcumin, 4,4'-di-O-(glycinoyl-di-N-piperoyl)-curcumin, 4,4'-di-O-piperoyl curcumin, curcumin-4,4'-di-O-beta-d-glucopyranoside, 4,4'-di-O-acetyl-curcumin along with piperoyl
Glycine betaine (GB) analogues were obtained using solid phase organic synthesis and assayed for their toxic activity against 15 Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria. Four benzyl derivatives of GB were selected to determine their effect on bacterial growth. Bacteriostatic and lethal effects were
Strains of enterobacteria that cause urinary tract infections are able to grow in urine with high tonicity. In such conditions bacterias adapt to osmotic forces by incorporation of osmoprotectant compounds including glycine betaine. Accumulation of toxic analogues in bacteria, using inducible
In this study, the antibacterial activities of colloidal chitosan, chitosan solution, and chitooligosaccharide solution were evaluated against Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. glycines grown in peptone sucrose broth (PSB) medium. Treatment with colloidal chitosan (0.01, 0.025, and 0.05%) inhibited X.
Glycine is the simplest amino acid and is used as a metabolic product in some bacteria. However, an excess of glycine inhibits the growth of many bacteria, and it is used as a nonspecific antiseptic agent due to its low level of toxicity in animals. The effect of glycine on Helicobacter pylori is
SK(66)-his, a novel glycine-rich peptide derived from the CG13551 gene of Drosophila, was directly expressed in Escherichia coli with the help of the glucose effect of the lac repressor and efficiently purified in high yield (10.063 mg/l). It showed significant activity against Gram-positive
Amino acids have various physiological activities that influence processes such as intestinal regeneration, EGF secretion, protein synthesis, and cell growth. Salivary glands are exposed to nutrients that influence their proliferation and regeneration. Glycine is included in saliva in large
Antimicrobial peptides often show broad-spectrum activity due to a mechanism based on bacterial membrane disruption, which also reduces development of permanent resistance, a desirable characteristic in view of the escalating multidrug resistance problem. Host cell toxicity however requires design
Acinetobacter baumannii is one of the clinically important nosocomial pathogen that has become resistant to most of the conventional antimicrobials. Biofilms formed by A. baumannii are difficult to eradicate, thereby highlighting the need for new therapeutic options to treat biofilm associated
Striking bacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa 9D-2 was achieved by glycine-carbenicillin, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid-carbenicillin, and glycine-ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid combinations, whereas none of the agents used alone was capable of the same degree of bactericidal
Glycine betaine is believed to be the most active naturally occurring osmoprotectant molecule for Escherichia coli and other bacteria. It is a dipolar ion possessing a quaternary ammonimum group and a carboxylic acid group. To examine the molecular requirements for osmoprotective activity,
New series of organotin(IV) complexes and Schiff bases derived from amino acids have been designed and synthesized from condensation of 1H-indole-2,3-dione, 5-chloro-1H-indole-2,3-dione, and α-amino acids (phenylalanine, isoleucine, and glycine). All compounds are characterized by elemental
Density functional theory calculations were performed with DFT method using both b3lyp/6-311++G(d,p) and wb97xd/6-311++G(d,p) levels of theory to predict the molecular geometry, to evaluate the molecular electrostatic potential and frontier molecular orbitals of synthesized a new compound:
