The cross-aldolization of (-)-(1S,4R,5R,6R)-6-endo-chloro-5-exo-(phenylseleno)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1] heptan-2-one ((-)-25) and of(+)-(3aR,4aR,7aR,7bS)- ((+)-26) and(-)-(3aS,4aS,7aS,7bR)-3a,4a,7a,7b-tetrahydro-6,6-dimethyl[1,3]dioxolo [4,5]furo[2,3-d]isoxazol ...
Two types of ligand-gated ion channels were expressed with the Semliki Forest virus (SFV) expression system. The cDNAs for mouse serotonin 5-HT3 receptor and rat and human purinoreceptor P2x subtypes were introduced into the pSFV1 vector. In vitro transcri ...
The structural features of the active site of human monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) were investigated by affinity labeling and site-directed mutagenesis. The pseudosubstrate inhibitor N-[2-aminoethyl]-5-chloro-2-pyridine carboxamide HCl (lazabemide) can be irr ...
Simply mixing amino alc. I (R = substituent) and thiols in toluene and TFA provided the corresponding amino sulfide II in excellent chem. yield and diastereoselectivity. A double SN2 process initiated by O-5 participation of the neighboring N-carbamate gro ...
Readily derived from D-glucose, 5-[(2R,3S,4R)-3,4-dihydroxypyrrolidin-2-yl]-2-methyl-3-furoic esters and amides are selective and competitive inhibitors (K(i)greater than or equal to3 muM) Of alpha -L-fucosidase from bovine epididymis and from human placen ...
We have measured fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between a fluorescent antagonist, bound to the purified detergent-solubilized serotonin type 3 receptor, and a lipophilic acceptor probe partitioned into the micelle surrounding the detergent-s ...
We have expressed the 5-HT3 receptor with two transient expression sytems: the Semliki Forest virus and the HEK293EBNA. Both systems allow the rapid expression of functional receptor protein at very high level: up to 107 receptors per cell. Large scale pro ...
Neuronal growth factors hold promise for providing therapeutic benefits in various neurological disorders. As a means of ensuring adequate central nervous system delivery of growth factors and minimizing significant adverse side effects associated with sys ...
The thermodn. and kinetics of ligand binding to the purified serotonin 5HT3 receptor and the local environment of the bound ligand were studied by fluorescence spectroscopy using a novel fluorescein-labeled ligand GR-flu [1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-3-[(5-methyl-1H ...
The binding of the fluorescein-labeled antagonist GR-flu ([1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-3-[(5-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)methyl]-9-(3-amino- (N-fluoresceinthiocarbamoyl)propyl)-4H-carbazol-4-one]) to a purified, detergent-solubilized ligand-gated ion channel, the type- ...
