Keiper, Sonja,Vyle, Joseph S.
, p. 3306 - 3309 (2006)
(Figure Presented) Lights, camera, action! Photoswitchable nucleoside analogues containing o-, m-, or p-azobenzenes can be inserted in the catalytic core of RNA-cleaving 10-23 deoxyribozymes by replacing a nonconserved residue (see picture). Irradiation o
Azobenzene-containing, peptidyl α-ketoesters as photobiological switches of α-chymotrypsin
Harvey, Andrew J,Abell, Andrew D
, p. 9763 - 9771 (2007/10/03)
Three photoswitchable, peptidomimetic inhibitors of α-chymotrypsin have been synthesised. The compounds comprise an azobenzene, an α-ketoester and L-phenylalanine. The compounds were photoisomerised to give enriched states of the (E) and (Z) isomers and t
Photocontrol of α-chymotrypsin activity by covalently linked 2- carboxyazobenzene units
Singh, Anil K.,Madhusudnan, Kartha S.
, p. 885 - 888 (2007/10/03)
α-Chymotrypsin exhibits photoswitchable catalytic activities in aqueous solution after eight of its thirteen backbone amino groups are covalently attached via amide linkage to trans-2-carboxyazobenzene [Ph-N = N-Ph-(o- CO2H), 1]. Irradiation of
