Heterocyclic chem. continues to be in the focus of life science-oriented research. Fluorine, a unique tool for finetuning biol. properties, offers an extra bonus in this context. The lecture features three pertinent issues. First, proven and novel routes t ...
Duocarmycins are a potent class of antitumor agents. Their activity arises by their covalent binding to adenine nucleobases of DNA. We use classical mol. dynamics and hybrid (QM/MM) Car-Parrinello mol. dynamics simulations to study non-covalent and covalen ...
The thesis presented here describes studies of ligand binding, function, and arrangement of ligand-gated ion channels in cell membranes. Fluorescence microscopy and the patch clamp technique are used to investigate the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and ...
We report on an in vivo single-mol. study of the signaling kinetics of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) performed using the neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R) as a representative member. The NK1R signaling cascade is triggered by the specific binding of a fluo ...
The cyanobacterial metabolite anachelin, postulated to serve as a biological ligand to Fe (siderophore), is composed of a fascinating blend of polyketide, peptide, and alkaloid building blocks. In particular, the latter consists of a N,N-dimethyltetrahydro ...
The subject of this thesis is the study of the structure and function of the human muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR), which is a typical member of the large class of ligand-gated ion channels. Appropriate techniques, like site-directed mutage ...
With the reversible sequential (ReSeq) binding assay, we present a novel approach for the ultrasensitive profiling of receptor function in single living cells. This assay is based on the repetitive application of fluorescent ligands that have fast assocn.- ...
Here, we report on an aqueous room temperature synthesis method for the production of gold nanoparticles that have a number (> 4) of branches ultimately resembling the shape of sea urchins. The particles are synthesized in the presence of water soluble thi ...
The Pb and Cd binding capacity of alginates were quantified by the determination of their complex stability constants and the concentration of complexing sites using H+,Pb 2+,orCd2+ selective electrodes in both static and dynamic titrations. Centrifugation ...
2,4-Difluoro-, 2,4,6-trifluoro-, and 2,3,4,6-tetra(fluoro)pyridine undergo nucleophilic substitution preferentially if not exclusively at the 4-position. However, after the introduction of a trialkylsilyl group at C-3 or C-5, the halogen at the 6-(2-)posit ...
