Expression and regulation of cytochrome P-450I genes (CYP1A1 and CYP1A2) in the rat alimentary tract
(Elsevier, 1992-12-29)
Cytochrome P-450 (P450) enzymes in the mucosa of the alimentary tract may be involved in the activation and/or inactivation of ingested xenobiotics and procarcinogens. Since the multiple P450 enzymes have overlapping ...
Interaction of linear manno-oligosaccharides with three mannose-specific bulb lectins. Comparison with mannose/glucose-binding lectins
(Elsevier, 1992-05-22)
Three new mannose-binding lectins, isolated from daffodil (NPA), amaryllis (HHA), and snowdrop (GNA) bulbs, are capable of precipitating with a linear mannopentaose (Man[alpha]1-3Man[alpha]1-3Man[alpha]1-3Man[alpha]1-2Man). ...
Fusion of mercury a new certified standard for differential scanning calorimetry
(Elsevier, 1990-03)
From the results of adiabatic-calorimetric measurements, mercury has been certified as a standard reference material for temperature and enthalpy of fusion for differential scanning calorimetry. The fusion temperature is ...
Use of Cyclodextrin-Cholesterol Complex as a Primary Standard in Cholesterol Analysis
(Elsevier, 1993-06)
Cholesterol is an analyte commonly measured in various biological fluids. Enzymic procedures have virtually replaced the chemical methods for cholesterol determinations. Standardization of cholesterol assays often involve ...
Interaction of five -mannose-specific lectins with a series of synthetic branched trisaccharides
(Elsevier, 1991-06-25)
The interaction of a series of synthetic, branched trisaccharides with five -mannose-specific lectins was studied by precipitation-inhibition assay. The branched methyl [alpha]--mannotrioside, [alpha]--Manp-(1-->3)-[[ ...
Boron-modified polysilylcarbodi-imides as precursors for Si–B–C–N ceramics: Synthesis, plastic-forming and high-temperature behavior
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 1998-10)
The synthesis, by two different reaction pathways, of boron-modified polysilylcarbodi-imides of general type {B[C 2 H 4 Si(R)NCN] 3 } n (R 14=singly bonded organic ligand) and the plastic-forming and the thermal behavior ...
Topological studies of spinach 22 kDa protein of Photosystem II
(Elsevier, 1994-12-30)
An intrinsic 22 kDa polypeptide is associated with the O2-evolving Photosystem II core complex in a variety of green plants, although it does not appear to be required for O2 evolution. Digestion of thylakoid membranes and ...
The sampling properties of some distance geometry algorithms applied to unconstrained polypeptide chains: A study of 1830 independently computed conformations
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1990-10)
In this paper we study the statistical geometry of ensembles of poly(L-alanine) conformations computed by several different distance geometry algorithms. Since basic theory only permits us to predict the statistical ...
Progress in Practice: Exploring the Cooperative and Collaborative Dimensions of Group Learning
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag New York, Inc., 1996-03)
We all participate in a variety of groups as part of our daily lives, from families to social and work communities. As chemists, we are part of our college departments, our professional societies, our research groups, and ...
Thermodynamics of iron sulfides I. Heat capacity and thermodynamic properties of Fe9S10 at temperatures from 5 K to 740 K
(Elsevier, 1991-03)
Measurements of the heat capacity of Fe9S10 over the temperature range 5 K to 740 K reveal a first-order structural transition at 495 K and two higher-order transitions with maxima at 534 K and 591 K. The last two are of ...
