These chelating resins were found to show high adsorption capacities for Ag^+, Hg^2+, Au^3+ and Pd^2+, and the presence of spacer arm can enhance adsorption ability due to increase the hydrophilicity of the chelating resins.展开更多

Their adsorption capacities towards Zn^2+, Cu^2+, Pb^2+, Hg^2+ and Ag^+ at pH 3.0 and 6.0 were investigated in detail. It was found that the adsorption capacities of the resins containing bis[(3-pyridylaminoethyl)sulfoxide or (2-benzothiazolylthioethyl)sulfoxide for the above ions were higher than that on ones containing single above-mentioned groups.展开更多
Arylamine N-acetyltransferases (NATs, EC 2.3.1.5) catalyze an acetyl group transfer from acetyl coenzyme A (AcCoA) to primary arylamines and play a very important role in the metabolism and bioactivation of drugs ...Arylamine N-acetyltransferases (NATs, EC 2.3.1.5) catalyze an acetyl group transfer from acetyl coenzyme A (AcCoA) to primary arylamines and play a very important role in the metabolism and bioactivation of drugs and carcinogens. Experiments revealed that His-107 was likely the residues responsible for mediating acetyl transfer. The full catalytic mechanism of acetylation process has been examined by density functional theory. The results indicate that, if the acetyl group is directly transferred from the donor, p-nitrophenyl acetate, to the acceptor, cysteine, the high activation energy will be a great hindrance. These energies have dropped in a little range of 20-25 kJ/mol when His-107 assisted the transfer process. However, when protonated His-107 mediated the reaction, the activation energies have been dropped about 73-85 kJ/mol. Our calculations strongly supported an enzyme acetylation mechanism that experiences a thiolate-imidazolium pair, and verified the presumption from experiments.展开更多
