In this work (1)H NMR self-diffusion experiments have been performed to determine the self-diffusion coefficients of n-octyl beta-d-glucoside and n-nonyl beta-d-glucoside in alpha-cyclodextrin and beta-cyclodextrin solutions at 25 degrees C. Two questions are addressed. The first concerns the
A single-crystal neutron diffraction study of cyclodecaamylose (CA10) was carried out at 20 K. CA10 crystallizes with 27.18 water molecules [(C(6)H(10)O(5))(10).27.18H(2)O] in space group C2 with unit-cell constants a = 29.31 (5), b = 9.976 (10), c = 19.34 (2) A, beta = 121.07 (2) degrees. The
The in vitro uptake study was performed using the isolated cells of human oral mucosa, buccal and the dorsum of the tongue, to investigate the mechanisms of glucose uptake. The uptake of D-glucose was much larger in cells of the dorsum of the tongue than in buccal cells and was inhibited more
Substrates associate and products dissociate from enzyme catalytic sites rapidly, which hampers investigations of their trajectories. The high-resolution structure of the native Hordeum exo-hydrolase HvExoI isolated from seedlings reveals that non-covalently trapped glucose forms a stable
A 60-kilodalton glycoprotein previously isolated and purified from human saliva (J. B. Babu, E. H. Beachey, D. L. Hasty, and W. A. Simpson, Infect. Immun. 51: 405-413, 1986) was found to interact with type 1 fimbriae and prevent adhesion of type 1 fimbriated Escherichia coli to animal cells in a
The immunochemical specificity of the combining sites of murine myeloma protein CAL20 TEPC1035 was studied by quantitative precipitin and precipitin inhibition assays. Myeloma protein CAL20 TEPC1035 precipitated with only three dextrans, B1355S4, B1498S, and B1501S, with high proportions of alpha(1
The red Brazilian cherry, Eugenia uniflora, is widely used in traditional medicine. The aim of this study was to investigate the phytochemical composition of a methanol extract from leaves of E. uniflora and characterization of the isolated compounds. In addition, we aimed to determine The macrocyclic "cholaphanes" 3a-c were synthesized from the inexpensive steroid cholic acid. Like earlier relatives they feature substantial cavities with inward-directed hydroxyl groups, suitable for binding polar molecules such as carbohydrates in nonpolar media. New features are the externally
