The production of two new heterocyclic peptide isomers, catenulobactins A (1) and B (2), in cultures of Catenuloplanes sp. RD067331 was significantly increased when it was cocultured with a mycolic acid-containing bacterium. The planar structures and absolute configurations of the catenulobactins were determined based on NMR/MS and chiral-phase GC-MS analyses. Catenulobactin B (2) displayed Fe(III)-chelating activity and moderate cytotoxicity against P388 murine leukemia cells.

Lin, Peng-Cheng,Yao, Jing,Wu, Jiang,Tian, Jin,Bao, Yi,Lin, Sheng
, p. 257 - 259 (2017/01/28)
A new ureido-substituted amino acid, conopsamide A (1), has been isolated from an ethanolic extract of the tubers of Gymnadenia conopsea. Its structure was elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis, and the absolute configuration was assigned by Marfey's method. The new compound was evaluated for in vitro assay for HDAC1 (Histone Deacetylase 1) inhibitory activity.
FUNCTIONALIZED FLUORINE CONTAINING PHTHALOCYANINE MOLECULES
-
, (2015/03/16)
Functionalized fluorine containing phthalocyanine molecules, methods of making, and methods of use in diagnostic applications and disease treatment are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the fluorine containing phthalocyanine molecules are functionalized with a reactive functional group or at least one cancer-targeting ligand (CTL). The CTL can facilitate more efficient binding and/or internalization to a cancer cell than to a healthy cell. The CTL can inhibit expression of oncoprotein in some embodiments. The pthalocyanine moiety can be used in diagnostic applications, such as fluorescence labeling of a cancer cell, and/or treatment applications, such as catalyzing formation of a reactive oxygen species (ROS) which can contribute to cell death of a cancer cell.

, (2014/12/12)
The invention relates to peptides derivatized with a hydrophilic polymer which, in some embodiments, bind to human FcRn and inhibit binding of the Fc portion of an IgG to an FcRn, thereby modulating serum IgG levels. The disclosed compositions and methods may be used in some embodiments, for example, in treating autoimmune diseases and inflammatory disorders. The invention also relates, in further embodiments, to methods of using and methods of making the peptides of the invention.
GALACTOSE CLUSTER-PHARMACOKINETIC MODULATOR TARGETING MOIETY FOR siRNA
-
, (2012/06/30)
The present invention is directed compositions for targeted delivery of RNA interference (RNAi) polynucleotides to cell in vivo. The pharmacokinetic modulator improve in vivo targeting compared to the targeting ligand alone. Targeting ligand-pharmacokinetic modulator targeting moiety targeted RNAi polynucleotides can be administered in vivo alone or together with co-targeted delivery polymers.
Lysine racemase from a lactic acid bacterium, Oenococcus oeni: Structural basis of substrate specificity
Kato, Shiro,Hemmi, Hisashi,Yoshimura, Tohru
, p. 505 - 508 (2013/02/25)
Oenococcus oeni, a lactic acid bacterium, possesses a lysine racemase, which has a specific activity towards basic amino acids. A comparison of amino acid residues around the active site suggested that Ile222 and Tyr354 of the Geobacillus stearothermophilus alanine racemase, which shares 60% sequence similarity with lysine racemase, were replaced by Thr224 and Trp355 in the O. oeni lysine racemase. T224I/W355Y double mutations significantly decreased the activity of lysine racemase, whereas I222T/Y354W double mutations endowed alanine racemase with lysine racemization activity. These results suggest that the two residues play an important role in lysine racemization.
