Enzyme Activity Fingerprinting with Substrate Cocktails
摘要:
In the postgenomic era, emphasis is shifting from protein identification to protein functional analysis. Enzyme function can be characterized by measuring activity across series of substrates, which generates an activity profile or fingerprint. Activity fingerprinting is particularly useful to differentiate closely related enzymes. Previously reported fingerprinting methods use series of parallel measurements, which are complex and difficult to reproduce. Here we report a new method for fingerprinting enzyme activities based on using mixtures of substrates, or substrate cocktails, in a single reaction that is then analyzed by HPLC. The fingerprints produced are highly reproducible and allow functional differentiation and classification of closely related enzymes, as demonstrated for a series of lipases and esterases. The method is practical, general, and flexible in terms of reaction conditions and can be adapted to any reaction type.

unactivated alkenes via vinylic C–H activation has been developed. The present cross-coupling reaction was examined with a variety of differently functionalized acrylamides and unactivated olefins. In these reactions, highly valuable amide-functionalized butadienes were prepared in good to excellent yields. This protocol was also compatible with Weinrebamides. A possible reaction mechanism involving the chelation-assisted

A Rh(III)-catalyzed COOH-assisted C–H alkenylation of aromaticacids with unactivated alkenes at room temperature is described. Further, the highly challenging β-C–H olefination of acrylic acids with unactivated olefins was also demonstrated. In these reactions, ortho-alkenylated aromatic/vinylic acids were prepared in good to excellent yields. A possible reaction mechanism involving ortho C–H activation
A Ru(II)-catalyzed weak chelating group-aided ortho-C–H alkylation of arylamides with unactivated olefins in a redox-neutral fashion has been demonstrated. The present alkylation reaction was well-suited for various substituted arylamides and unactivated aliphatic alkenes. In this alkylation reaction, pivalic acid plays dual role in which it delivers the proton source in a protonation step and the
The present invention relates to coumarins of the formula (I):
that are useful as inhibitors of nitric oxide synthase. Pharmaceutical compositions and methods of using these compounds as inhibitors of nitric oxide synthase are described herein.

We have reported an indium(0)-mediatedCsp3–S/Ocross-couplingapproach that leads to the highly regioselectivealkylation of α-enolic acetate/dithioacetate systems. This hetero cross-coupling reaction does not require additional co-catalyst or promoter, and the in situ generated organoindium species promotes the reaction by acting as the coupling partner of the α-enolic acetate/dithioacetate substrates
