  • [ $^{31}PNMR$ ] spectroscopy revealed the adenylate kinase-like activity and the phosphotransferase activity from $F_1-ATPase$ of Escherichia coli. Incubation of $F_1-ATPase$ with ADP in the presence of $Mg^{2+}$ shows the appearance of $^{31}P$ resonances from AMP and Pi, suggesting the generation of AMP and ATP by adenylate kinase-like activity and the subsequent hydrolysis to Pi. Incubation of $F_1-ATPase$ with ADP in the presence of methanol shows additional peak from methyl phosphate, suggesting phosphotransferase activity of $F_1-ATPase$. Both adenylate kinase-like activity and the phosphotransferase activity has not been reported from $F_1-ATPase$ from Escherichia coli. $^{31}P$ NMR proved that it could be a valuable tool for the investigation of phosphorous related enzyme.

  • [ $^{31}P$ ] powder pattern spectra were measured to investigate the aspects of the interaction between the MLV (Multilamellar vesicle) and PMAP-23, a membrane of cathelicidin family and then CSAs(chemical shift anisotropy) were calculated to indentify the extent of perturbation of phospholipid mobility by the peptides. We found that acidic phospholipid interacts strongly with PMAP-23, and the analogues which modified to increase the amphipathic property showed that larger change of CSA. The analogue which introduced positive charge showed the same effects with amphipathic property.

  • Polymers containing poly(vinyl phosphonic) acid segments are promising candidates to be used as proton conducting membranes. Solid state NMR spectroscopy represents an ideal probe of proton motion on the molecular level, because it allows us to selectively detect the nuclei of interest. In this paper, we apply solid state NMR methods to poly(vinyl phosphonic) acid in order to demonstrate that the proton conduction of poly(vinyl phosphonic acid) results from P-OH proton through hydrogen bonding and that the condensation of phosphonic acid leads to decrease in proton conductivity. $^{1}H\;and\;^{31}P$ solid state NMR experiments are supported by quantum chemical computation of NMR parameters.

  • A three-layered poly(benzyl ether) dendrimer having a bis-ethynylbenzene core was synthesized and characterized with $^{1}H$ NMR and MALDI-TOF-MS spectroscopy. The dendrimer was reacted with platinum complexes to obtain platinum-acetylide based organometallic polymers. When the dendrimer was reacted with trans-[$PtCl_{2}(PEt_{3})_{2}$], a high molecular weight polymeric compound was formed, whereas, with cis-[$PtCl_{2}dppp$], a uniform molecular weight compound was formed, which was found to be a dimeric metallacycle by $^{1}H\;NMR,\;^{31}P\;NMR$ and ESI-TOF-MS spectroscopy. Both these complexes exhibited relatively a strong emission around 440 nm, indicating that they could be potential candidates for blue emitting polymer LEDs.

  • Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is a common species of yeast, is by far the most extensively studied model of a eukaryote because although it is one of the simplest eukaryotes, its basic cellular processes resemble those of higher organisms. In addition, yeast is a commercially valuable organism for ethanol production. Since the yeast data can be extrapolated to the important aspects of higher organisms, many researchers have studied yeast metabolism under various conditions. In this report, we analyzed and compared metabolites of Saccharomyces cerevisiae under salt and pH stresses of various strengths by using two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy. A total of 31 metabolites were identified for most of the samples. The levels of many identified metabolites showed gradual or drastic increases or decreases depending on the severity of the stresses involved. The statistical analysis produced a holistic outline: pH stresses were clustered together, but salt stresses were spread out depending on the severity. This work could provide a link between the metabolite profiles and mRNA or protein profiles under representative and well studied stress conditions.

  • To improve the functional properties as a food, silk fibroin was phosphorylated with STMP In the phosphorylation reaction of silk fibroin, the degree of phosphorylation was increased with high alkali index and treatment temperature. Depending on treatment time and concentration of STMP it was rapidly increased up to 1hr. and 50%, but slowly above that time and 100%. It was indicated in the results of FT-IR analysis and $\^$31/p NMR spectroscopy of phosphorylated fibroin that it had a close ∝-helix and poly-phosphate structure. The more phosphorylation of fibroin made more turbidity, foam expansion and foam stability, but less solubility. Emulsifying activity was increased up to P100, but slightly decreased above Pl00 and emulsifying stability was constantly increased on the progressing of phosphorylation.

  • A new hydrazone derivative compound has been synthesized and characterized by IR, $^1H$-NMR, $^{13}C$-NMR and UV-vis. spectroscopy techniques, elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD). The new compound crystallizes in monoclinic space group C2/c. In addition to the crystal structure from X-ray experiment, the molecular geometry, vibrational frequencies and frontier molecular orbitals analysis of the title compound in the ground state have been calculated by using the HF/6-31G(d, p), B3LYP/6-311G(d, p) and B3LYP/6-31G(d, p) methods. The computed vibrational frequencies are used to determine the types of molecular motions associated with each of the observed experimental bands. To determine conformational flexibility, molecular energy profile of (1) was obtained by semi-empirical (AM1) calculation with respect to a selected degree of torsional freedom, which was varied from $-180^{\circ}$ to $+180^{\circ}$ in steps of $10^{\circ}$. Molecular electrostatic potential of the compound was also performed by the theoretical method.

  • Novel membrane lipids containing the unusual very long chain fatty $acid{\alpha}{\omega}-1316-dimethyloctacosanedioate$, dimethyl. Ester (DME C30) was isolated and purified from thermophilic anaerobic eubacterium, Thermoanaerobacter ethanolicus. Structures of the lipids containing the bifunctional fatty acyl components were proposed by various analyses such as $^1H,\;^{13}C,\;^{31}P$ nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectroscopy, gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FAB/MS). Combined with the GC/MS, $^1H,\;and\;^{13}C$NMR data, we confirmed that the head groups of the lipids contained the glycerol and/or glucosamine molecules. $^{31}P$ NMR spectrum also showed that the lipids contained phosphate in a phosphodiester linkage. The proposed structures of these novel lipid components were the ones in which two head groups were linked by the membrane spanning fatty acyl component(DME C30)and regular chain fatty acids on glycerol moiety of each head group.

  • A procedure is described for the synthesis of the title compound via phosphotriester intermediates. The preparation of $R_p$ and $S_p$ diastereomeric dinucleotide of d[Cp(S)T] was performed by the condensation of the protected deoxycytidine, the protected thymidine, 2,5-dichlorophenylphosphorodichloridothioate and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole in THF. Their designation of configuration at phosphorus as $R_p$ and $S_p$ follows from anaylsis of ${31}^P$ NMR spectroscopy and reverse-phase HPLC and the stereospecificity in the hydrolysis catalyzed by Nuclease S1 and snake venom phosphodiesterase. Diastereomerically pure $R_p$ and $S_p$ d[Cp(S)T] were utilized to synthesize oligonucleotides containing the XhoI recognition sequence with a phosphorothioate group at the cleavage site.
