The synthesis of 4′-vinylbenzo-12-crown-4 ether is reported. Polymerization to relatively low molecular weight polymers can be accomplished with a free radical initiator. A copolymer with styrene can be prepared and the Li+, Na+, and K+ binding properties of these polymers are compared to those of their monomeric analogs using salt distribution equilibria in water – methylene chloride. For all cations the homopolymer is found to extract the salts from the aqueous phase most effectively. The copolymer is slightly less effective than the homopolymer but more effective than either of the monomers by a factor of approximately 7, indicating that cooperative binding is likely. Na+ is the most efficiently extracted cation, followed by K+ and Li+. Key words: crown ether polymers, complexation properties.

A silver uptake study by Pseudomonas diminuta was carried out by growing the bacteria in a chloride-free medium (CFM) containing silver ions (50 muM) in a batch culture. From the results, it was found that higher amounts of silver were accumulated inside the cell during early exponential phase compared to the amount bound at the cell surface. This suggested a possible mechanism for metal uptake during bacterial growth. In view of this, attempts were made to isolate proteins which might be associated with silver-binding properties from cultures of P.diminuta grown in the presence and absence of silver. The proteins were first extracted from the bacterial cultures by precipitation with ammonium sulfate followed by purification using isoelectric focussing and SDS-PAGE. Results of the experiment showed the presence of low molecular weight and high molecular weight proteins containing silver with pI values ranging from 2.0 to 9.0 for bacteria grown in the presence of silver.

The capability for cooperative binding of a ditopic Gd-based responsive MRI probe was used to advance the sensitivity towards the major excitatory (Glu) and inhibitory (GABA) neurotransmitters over their physiological competitor hydrogencarbonate.

The data on the methods for the preparation of polyetherketones by electrophilic and nucleophilic methods are considered and generalized. It is shown that polyetherketones by electrophilic substitution are carried out as homopolycondensation aromatic monocarboxylic acids and their halides and polycondensation of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons with aromatic dicarboxylic acids or their halides, and phosgene in organic solvents (1,2-dichloroethane, methylene chloride, nitrobenzene and etc.) in the presence of Ziegler-Natt catalysts. However, this process has not found an industrial application in view of such disadvantages as low yield of the desired product, the formation of a polymer with low molecular weight, synthesis time (15-40 hours), the use of large amounts of catalyst, the complexity of polymer purification of it.

Abstract Affinity resins with different spacer arms were synthesized analogues to the solid phase peptide synthesis using aminoethyl cellulose or carboxymethyl cellulose as matrix. The spacer arms could be varied in length and rigidity. Especially spacer arms consisting of poly am ino acids can be synthesized with a defined amount of amino acid residues specifically in the low molecular weight ranges. The method is also applicable to other matrices w hich are not susceptible to 1 ɴ HCl in glacial acetic acid, trethylamine, methylene chloride and dimethylformamide. The synthesis of affinity resins with different spacer arms for the purification of androgen receptors is described as an example of the method.

We have used the plant toxin victorin C, which is synthesised by the saprophytic fungus Cochliobolus victoria, as a biological probe. Victorin C, labelled with either 125I or 35S, bound to eight distinct proteins (victorin-binding proteins) in oat plants that were either resistant or sensitive to the toxin. Using a series of in vitro experiments, we observed a difference in the victorin-binding properties between resistant and susceptible plants. Furthermore, we found that other plant species contain a set of proteins of similar sizes which specifically bind victorin. Unexpectedly, we also found a low molecular weight victorin-binding protein present in all tested eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
