The carbon dioxide evolved when α-amino acids were heated for one hour at 85 °C. with ninhydrin was determined in a partially evacuated microdiffusion cell. Distillation of solvent from one chamber to the other was minimized by keeping the ionic concentrations of the reaction mixture and absorbing mixture approximately equal. The method was useful for samples of amino acids which liberated from 0.06 to 0.3 mgm. of carbon dioxide. The average deviation from the mean was somewhat less than 1% for samples liberating 0.2 mgm. of carbon dioxide. Use of the method for routine analysis of enzymatic digests resulted in substantial saving of time and material.

Highly enantioselective conversion of dienamides into cyclic α-amino acids can be achieved by a single-pot, tandem hydrogenation–hydroformylation–cyclization–elimination sequence using a single catalyst and supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) as the reaction solvent at total pressures significantly lower than those previously reported for related hydrogenation and hydroformylation reactions.

AbstractIcy bodies in space are being irradiated continuously by ionizing radiation. Therefore, the transformation of organic molecules trapped in extraterrestrial ices might have been possible. This work studied a bulk irradiation of a mixture of some constituents of cometary nuclei. The results show that the formation of different compounds, among them ammonia, carbon dioxide, amines, ureas, free amino acids, and oligomeric material, yields carboxylic acids, amino acids, and purines upon hydrolysis.

Viscera of mackerel (Scomber sp.) were defatted by supercritical carbon dioxide (SCO2) treatment. Trypsin (SC-T) was then extracted from the defatted powder and purified by a series of chromatographies including Sephacryl S-200 and Sephadex G-50. The purified SC-T was nearly homogeneous on SDS-PAGE, and its molecular weight was estimated as approximately 24,000 Da. N-terminal twenty amino acids sequence of SC-T was IVGGYECTAHSQPHQVSLNS. The specific trypsin inhibitors, soybean trypsin inhibitor and TLCK, strongly inhibited the activities of SC-T. The pH and temperature optimums of SC-T were at around pH 8.0 and , respectively, using Nα-p-tosyl-L-arginine methyl ester as a substrate. The SC-T was unstable below pH 5.0 and above , and it was stabilized by calcium ion. These enzymatic characteristics of SC-T were the same as those of other fish trypsins, especially spotted mackerel (S. borealis) trypsin, purified from viscera defatted by acetone. Therefore, we concluded that the SCO2 defatting process is useful as a substitute for organic solvent defatting process.
