ATP: AMP Phosphotransferase from Baker's Yeast. Purification and Properties (1980)

An improved homogeneous preparation of adenylate kinase (ATP:AMP phosphotransferase, ATP + AMP in equilibrium 2 ADP) from baker's yeast was attained by extraction using ethyl acetate and successive column chromatography on Affi-Gel blue, Sephadex G-100, phosphocellulose and Sephacryl S-200. The overall purification is about 670-fold with a yield of 23% and final specific activity of 1900 units/mg protein. The enzyme preparation is a single band in isoelectrofocusing with a pI of 5.7. By sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis and gel chromatography the molecular weight is 27 500. Among the nucleoside monophosphates investigated (AMP, CMP, GMP, IMP and UMP) only AMP reacts with ATP (dATP). ATP (dATP) is about one order of magnitude more active than CTP, GTP, ITP and UTP. The enzyme catalyzes only in the presence of a divalent metal cation, namely Mg2+, Ca2+, Co2+, Mn2+ and Ni2+, and the reaction rate is maximal at about 0.5 M NaCl. The binding of the substrates also takes place in the absence of metal. The dissociation constants for ATP, MgATP, CTP, GTP, UTP and AMP are 3.4, 4.2, 18.5, 17.2, 23.8 and 39.3 microM respectively. The amino acid composition of the purified enzyme is: 32 aspartic acid + asparagine, 12 threonine, 12 serine, 27 glutamic acid + glutamine, 16 proline, 21 glycine, 24 alanine, 11 valine, 9 methionine, 17 isoleucine, 25 leucine, 4 tyrosine, 7 phenylalanine, 2 half-cystine (no free sulfhydryl), 23 lysine, 6 histidine, 10 arginine and 2 tryptophan, totalling 260 residues.
X‐ray Crystal Structure of a Metalled Double‐Helix Generated by Infinite and Consecutive C*‐AgI‐C* (C*:N1‐Hexylcytosine) Base Pairs through Argentophilic and Hydrogen Bond Interactions (2016)

The synthesis of a metalled double-helix containing exclusively silver-mediated C*-C* base pairs is reported herein (C*=N<sup>1</sup> hexylcytosine). Remarkably, it is the first crystal structure containing infinite and consecutive C*-Ag<sup>I</sup> -C* base pairs that form a double helix. The Ag<sup>I</sup> ion occupies the center between two C* residues with N(3)-Ag bond lengths of 2.1 Å and short Ag<sup>I</sup> -Ag<sup>I</sup> distances (3.1 Å) suggesting an interesting argentophilic attraction as a stabilization source of the helical disposition. The solid-state structure is further stabilized by metal-mediated base-pairs, hydrogen bonding and π-stacking interactions. Moreover, the angle N(3)-Ag-N(3) is almost linear in the [Ag(N<sup>1</sup> hexylcytosine)<sub>2</sub> ]<sup>+</sup> motif and the bases are not coplanar, thus generating a double-strand helical aggregate in the solid state. The noncovalent and argentophilic interactions have been rationalized based on DFT calculations.

Renal Replacement Therapy in Acute Renal Failure: Which Index is Best for Dialysis dose Quantification? (2007)

The SRI calculated using direct dialysate effluent quantification appears to be more reliable as an index of the dialysis dose compared to other methods in ARF patients. However, the use of the dialysate-side SRI is limited by the difficulty of dialysate effluent collection.
Fabrication of plasmonic devices using femtosecond laser-induced forward transfer technique (2012)

Using femtosecond laser-induced forward transfer techniques we have fabricated gold dots and nanoparticles on glass substrates, as well as nanobumps on gold thin film. The surface morphologies of these structures with different laser fluences and film thicknesses are investigated. We also study the focusing and defocusing properties of the nanofence-an arranged nanobump pattern-by the total-internal reflection microscope. Observations reveal that surface plasmon waves can be highly directed and focused via this nanofence pattern. Results are in good agreement with the simulation results using the finite-element method and demonstrate the potential applications of these nanophotonic devices. Furthermore, we utilize high laser energy to fabricate plasmonic waveguides, and also succeed in transferring the waveguides to another substrate. The attenuation rates of the light propagating in the waveguides are observed to achieve 0.31 dB μm(-1) and 0.48 dB μm(-1) on the target and receiver sides, respectively.
First Principles Calculations of the Effect of Stress in the I-V Characteristics of the CoSi<inf>2</inf>/Si Interface (2018)

We present ab initio-based electronic transport calculations on the effect of uniaxial and bi-axial stress on the CoSi <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> /n Si interface resistivity for the three main silicon crystallographic directions. For the [001] case, we identify two distinctive low and high bias conduction regimes for both compressive and tensile stress. In these regimes, the current is dominated by electronic transmission pathways near the Γ point for bias up to ~0.1V, while for higher bias it is dominated by transmission at the (±1/2, ±1/2) conduction band valleys of the Brillouin zone, which results in a contact resistivity decrease of up to 30% at 0.2V bias. This effect is less pronounced for the [110] direction, and negligible for the [111] case due to the symmetry of the Si conduction band valleys along these directions. This study provides insight into stress-based optimization pathways for contact resistivity reduction of silicide interfaces in next generation semiconductor devices.
Insertion of atypical glycans into the tumor antigen-binding site identifies DLBCLs with distinct origin and behavior (2021)

Glycosylation of the surface immunoglobulin (Ig) variable region is a remarkable follicular lymphoma-associated feature rarely seen in normal B cells. Here, we define a subset of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCLs) that acquire N-glycosylation sites selectively in the Ig complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) of the antigen-binding sites. Mass spectrometry and X-ray crystallography demonstrate how the inserted glycans are stalled at oligomannose-type structures because they are buried in the CDR loops. Acquisition of sites occurs in ∼50% of germinal-center B-cell-like DLBCL (GCB-DLBCL), mainly of the genetic EZB subtype, irrespective of IGHV-D-J use. This markedly contrasts with the activated B-cell-like DLBCL Ig, which rarely has sites in the CDR and does not seem to acquire oligomannose-type structures. Acquisition of CDR-located acceptor sites associates with mutations of epigenetic regulators and BCL2 translocations, indicating an origin shared with follicular lymphoma. Within the EZB subtype, these sites are associated with more rapid disease progression and with significant gene set enrichment of the B-cell receptor, PI3K/AKT/MTORC1 pathway, glucose metabolism, and MYC signaling pathways, particularly in the fraction devoid of MYC translocations. The oligomannose-type glycans on the lymphoma cells interact with the candidate lectin dendritic cell-specific intercellular adhesion molecule 3 grabbing non-integrin (DC-SIGN), mediating low-level signals, and lectin-expressing cells form clusters with lymphoma cells. Both clustering and signaling are inhibited by antibodies specifically targeting the DC-SIGN carbohydrate recognition domain. Oligomannosylation of the tumor Ig is a posttranslational modification that readily identifies a distinct GCB-DLBCL category with more aggressive clinical behavior, and it could be a potential precise therapeutic target via antibody-mediated inhibition of the tumor Ig interaction with DC-SIGN-expressing M2-polarized macrophages.
Transverse magnetic mode nonreciprocal propagation in an amplifying AlGaInAs∕InP optical waveguide isolator (2006)

The design, fabrication, and characterization of an amplifying transverse magnetic (TM)-mode optical waveguide isolator operating at a wavelength of 1300nm are presented. The magneto-optical Kerr effect induces nonreciprocal modal absorption in a semiconductor optical amplifier with a laterally magnetized ferromagnetic metal contact. Current injection in the active structure compensates for the loss in the forward propagation direction. Monolithic integration of this optical isolator configuration with active InP-based photonic devices is straightforward. The combination of AlGaInAs∕InP active material and the metal alloy Co50Fe50 results in greatly improved performance. 99dB∕cm TM mode isolation and significantly reduced insertion loss are demonstrated.
Abstract 6240: The potent quadruplex-binding compound QN-302 shows anti-tumor activity as a monotherapy in an orthotopic in vivo model of pancreatic cancer (2023)

Abstract The compound QN-302, a tetra-substituted naphthalene diimide derivative has single-digit nM anti-proliferative activity in a panel of human pancreatic cancer (PDAC) cell lines (Ahmed et al., ACS Med Chem Lett, 2020, 11, 1634-1644). It has significant anti-tumor activity in the MIA-PACA2 xenograft model for PDAC and in the genetic KPC model. We now report that this compound also shows significant mono-therapy anti-tumor activity in an orthotopic model for PDAC. Female athymic nude mice bearing orthotopically implanted pancreatic BxPC-3 cells were dosed with 1 x weekly IV QN-302 at 0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg, over a period of 21 days. A separate group of mice was treated with Gemcitabine twice weekly IV during this period, at a dosage of 15 mg/kg. Blood samples from animals were collected on a weekly basis and were used to detect and quantify circulating tumor DNA as a method of following treatment efficacy. In line with previous studies QN-302 was well-tolerated at 0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg with no adverse effects on animal health or behavior noted during the study. Circulating tumor DNA levels were significantly less than vehicle controls in gemcitabine-treated animals from day 7 and QN-302 (1.0 mg/kg) treated animals from day 14 of treatment. Survival was significantly increased in gemcitabine and QN-302 (1.0 mg/kg) QW treatment groups. Statistically significant efficacy was observed in gemcitabine and QN-302 (1.0 mg/kg) treated animals. Examination of blood chemistry and biochemistry of treated animals did not indicate any adverse effects due to QN-302. This orthotopic model is the 4th in vivo study in a pancreatic cancer model showing anti-tumor activity for QN-302, further confirming the potential of this compound for human disease. QN-302 is currently in an advanced stage of pre-IND development by Qualigen Inc. Citation Format: Nicole Williams, Danielle Santos, Jenny Worthington, Ahmed Ahmed, Tariq Arshad, Stephen Neidle. The potent quadruplex-binding compound QN-302 shows anti-tumor activity as a monotherapy in an orthotopic in vivo model of pancreatic cancer. [abstract].

Mn 2+ Suppressor Mutations and Biochemical Communication between Ty1 Reverse Transcriptase and RNase H Domains (2007)

Ty1 reverse transcriptase/RNase H (RT/RH) is exquisitely sensitive to manganese concentrations. Elevated intracellular free Mn(2+) inhibits Ty1 retrotransposition and in vitro Ty1 RT-polymerizing activity. Furthermore, Mn(2+) inhibition is not limited to the Ty1 RT, as this ion similarly inhibits the activities of both avian myeloblastosis virus and human immunodeficiency virus type 1 RTs. To further characterize Mn(2+) inhibition, we generated RT/RH suppressor mutants capable of increased Ty1 transposition in pmr1 Delta cells. PMR1 codes for a P-type ATPase that regulates intracellular calcium and manganese ion homeostasis, and pmr1 mutants accumulate elevated intracellular manganese levels and display 100-fold less transposition than PMR1(+) cells. Mapping of these suppressor mutations revealed, surprisingly, that suppressor point mutations localize not to the RT itself but to the RH domain of the protein. Furthermore, Mn(2+) inhibition of in vitro RT activity is greatly reduced in all the suppressor mutants, whereas RH activity and cleavage specificity remain largely unchanged. These intriguing results reveal that the effect of these suppressor mutations is transmitted to the polymerase domain and suggest biochemical communication between these two domains during reverse transcription.
On mechanisms of light-induced deformations in photoreceptors (2020)

Abstract Photoreceptors in the retina convert light into electrical signals through a phototransduction cycle that consists of multiple electrical and biochemical events. Phase-resolved optical coherence tomography (pOCT) measurements of the optical path length (OPL) change in the cone photoreceptor outer segments after a light stimulus (optoretinogram) reveal a fast, ms-scale contraction by tens of nm, followed by a slow (hundreds of ms) elongation reaching hundreds of nm. Ultrafast measurements with a line-scan pOCT system show that the contractile response amplitude increases logarithmically with the number of incident photons, and its peak shifts earlier at higher stimulus intensities. We present a model that accounts for these features of the contractile response. Conformational changes in opsins after photoisomerization result in the fractional shift of charge across the disk membrane, leading to a transmembrane voltage change, known as the early receptor potential (ERP). Lateral repulsion of the ions on both sides of the membrane affects its surface tension and leads to its lateral expansion. Since the volume of the disks does not change much on a ms time scale, their lateral expansion leads to an axial contraction of the outer segment. With increasing stimulus intensity and resulting tension, the area expansion coefficient of the disk membrane also increases as thermally-induced fluctuations are pulled flat, resisting further expansion. This results in a logarithmic saturation of the deformation and a peak shift to earlier with brighter stimuli. Slow expansion of the photoreceptors is explained by the influx of water due to osmotic changes during phototransduction. Both effects closely match measurements in healthy human volunteers.
Lactococcus lactis carrying the pValac eukaryotic expression vector coding for IL-4 reduces chemically-induced intestinal inflammation by increasing the levels of IL-10-producing regulatory cells (2016)

This study shows that L. lactis MG1363 FnBPA(+) (pValac::dts::IL-4) is a good candidate to maintain the anti-inflammatory and proinflammatory balance in the gastrointestinal tract, increasing the levels of IL-10-secreting regulatory cells and, thus, demonstrating the effectiveness of this novel DNA delivery-based strategy.
Enantiomeric aspects of the metabolism of mianserin in rats. (1993)

After separate administration of mianserin (CAS 24219-97-4) enantiomers to rats, the hydroxy-metabolites of S-mianserin were excreted mainly as conjugates whereas the amount of free phenolic metabolites was greater after administration of the R-enantiomer. The sulphate-conjugate of 8-hydroxy-mianserin was stereoselectively found in faeces only after administration of S-mianserin. Based on in vitro experiments with sulphatase, the stability of this conjugate towards enzymic hydrolysis appears a likely explanation. In vitro experiments with liver homogenates of rats revealed little enantioselectivity with respect to oxidative metabolism. After prior enzyme induction with phenobarbital, however, enantioselectivity with regard to N-oxidation was found. The 3-oxo-mianserin metabolite, found in vitro, is most likely the product of a rearrangement of mianserin-N-oxide. N-formyl-demethyl-mianserin, identified in vitro, is considered to be an artefact.

A Rotating Double Layer Capacitive Slip Ring Concept for Power & Heat Transfer in Machines using an Ionic Conducting Working Fluid (2020)

Doubly fed induction machines, wound field synchronous machines and DC homopolar machines all require a slip ring connection to the rotor conductors. This connection inherently limits the performance and/or lifespan of these machines. Noncontact methods, such as brushless exciters and high frequency wireless power transfer, have been used to support some of these machines types but can be physically large and/or overly reliant on power electronics. Additionally, these methods do not support the cooling of the rotor conductors since they are purely electrical structures. This paper proposes a rotating electric double layer capacitor, or supercapacitor, to form a noncontact, slip-ring-like, AC electrical connection between the stator and rotor while simultaneously providing a rotor cooling platform. Here, a double layer capacitor is formed between a hydrostatic bronze bushing and the rotating shaft via flowing electrolytic liquid. The flowing electrolyte also serves as a heat transfer mechanism to remove heat from the shaft. Experimental results demonstrate increases in coupling capacitance and throughput A/Hz over prior work by factors of 100,000 and 100, respectively. The ability to simultaneously cool the shaft is demonstrated and measured as well.

The Hannover experience: Surgical treatment of tongue cancer - A clinical retrospective evaluation over a 30 years period (2011)

Abstract Objectives In this retrospective study, we present a clinical review of our experience with tongue cancer in order to obtain valid criteria for therapeutic decision-making. Materials and methods Between 1980 and 2009, a total of 341 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue were treated at our Department. The average follow-up was 5.2 years. 309 patients received surgical treatment, which was combined in nearly 10% with neoadjuvant and in nearly 20% with postoperative radio(chemo)therapy. 32 patients were excluded from surgery and received primary radiation. Results Local and regional failure occurred in 23.9% and 20.4%, leading to a total failure rate of 37.2% after an average duration of 1,6 years. N-Status, extracapsular spread and clear margins were identified as the dominant factors for survival, which was calculated with 54.5% after 5 years. Conclusions We recommend categorical bilateral neck dissection in order to reliably remove occult lymph node metastases. Adjuvant treatment modalities should be applied more frequently in controlled clinical trials and should generally be implemented in cases with unclear margins and lymphatic spread. Clinical relevance This study provides new treatment strategies for primary tumour disease and for tumour recurrence.
