Abstract A casein derivative (CADP) was synthesized using casein, which is bifunctional containing both –P=O(O-NH4+)2 reactive groups and -P(=O)-O-C- groups, and the durable flame-retardant cotton fabrics were successfully prepared by CADP. The –P=O(O-NH4+)2 reactive groups allowed CADP to be firmly grafted onto cellulose. The –P(=O)-O-C- groups made flame-retardant cotton fabrics more resistant to soaping and improved its durability. The modification by 40% CADP increased the limited oxygen index value (LOI) of cotton fabric from 17.4% to 41.6%, which maintained at 26.4% after 50 cycles of home machine washes. The results of TG, TG-FTIR and SEM indicated that CADP increased the condensed components and decreased the flammable gaseous compounds, resulting the positive effect on char formation of cellulose. The whiteness and tensile strength of cotton fabrics were retained well after modification, and the treated cotton fabrics didn’t have skin irritation.

Durable phosphorus-based flame retardants were applied to twill fabrics con taining cotton and wool to study the effect of wool on the flame retardancy and physical properties of the blend fabrics. The presence of wool in untreated blend fabrics caused burning rates to decrease and oxygen index values to increase as wool content increased in the blends. These effects were also observed in cotton/ wool blends treated with low levels of the Thps-urea-TMM flame retardant, but were less pronounced in fabrics treated at high levels. Thermogravimetric analyses were conducted to study the thermal degradation of the treated and untreated fabrics. The presence of wool in treated blend fabrics did not sig nificantly change strength retention, area shrinkage and wrinkle recovery values in comparison to similarly treated 100% cotton fabrics.

Programmed connection of amino acids or nucleotides into chains introduced a revolution in control of biological function. Reacting proteins together is more complex because of the number of reactive groups and delicate stability. Here we achieved sequence-programmed irreversible connection of protein units, forming polyprotein teams by sequential amidation and transamidation. SpyTag peptide is engineered to spontaneously form an isopeptide bond with SpyCatcher protein. By engineering the adhesin RrgA from Streptococcus pneumoniae, we developed the peptide SnoopTag, which formed a spontaneous isopeptide bond to its protein partner SnoopCatcher with >99% yield and no cross-reaction to SpyTag/SpyCatcher. Solid-phase attachment followed by sequential SpyTag or SnoopTag reaction between building-blocks enabled iterative extension. Linear, branched, and combinatorial polyproteins were synthesized, identifying optimal combinations of ligands against death receptors and growth factor receptors for cancer cell death signal activation. This simple and modular route to programmable “polyproteams” should enable exploration of a new area of biological space.

A new antibacterial with two reactive groups was synthesized from isothiazolin-3-one and characterized by 1H-NMR and ESI-MS. Through the orthogonal experiments the optimal finishing process was got, that was bath ratio 1:20, Na2SO4 20 g/L, NaHCO315 g/L, T1:60°C, T2:70°C, t1:10 min, t2:20 min, t3:30 min (as shown in fig.1). The antibacterial evaluations of treated cotton fabrics showed that the antibacterial rates for Escherichia coli and Staphyloccocus aureus were 95.64% and 97.83% respectively, and 88.13% and 90.05% respectively after 30 washing cycles. The results indicated that the treated fabric had excellent antibacterial performance and washing durability.

An investigation was carried out to determine general staining and histochemical properties of rat atrial specific granules. It was found that these granules may be demonstrated using aldehyde fuchsin after pretreatments which involve oxidation or thiosulfation. This new way of demonstrating atrial granules is compared to other staining methods in terms of sensitivity and selectivity as well as to the nature of reactive groups that may be involved in the staining reactions. No lipid or carbohydrate were detected histochemically. Overall assessment of reactions suggests that atrial granules are a site of storage for a protein or polypeptide. Some of the tests indicate that these may contain tryptophan and sulfur-containing amino acids.

<p><a>Targeted covalent inhibitors are powerful entities in drug discovery, but their application has so far mainly been limited to addressing cysteine residues. The development of cysteine-directed covalent inhibitors has largely profited from determining their proteome-wide selectivity using competitive residue-specific proteomics. Several probes have recently been described to monitor other amino acids using this technology and many more electrophiles exist to modify proteins. Nevertheless, a direct, proteome‑wide comparison of the selectivity of diverse probes is still entirely missing. Here, we developed a completely unbiased workflow to analyse electrophile selectivity proteome‑wide and applied it to directly compare 54 alkyne probes containing diverse reactive groups. In this way, we verified and newly identified probes to monitor a total of nine different amino acids as well as the <i>N</i>‑terminus proteome‑wide. This selection includes the first probes to globally monitor tryptophans, histidines and arginines as well as novel tailored probes for methionines, aspartates and glutamates.</a></p>
