Kinetics of catalyzed acyl group exchange between acetic-1-14C anhydride and alkyl thiolacetates was investigated. The exchange is not accompanied by chemical reaction and demonstrates the full equivalency of anhydride acyl groups in the process. The rate of exchange is lowered by increasing branching rather than lengthening in S-alkyl substituents. The role of catalyst and structures of possible intermediates are interpreted. Upon existing linear structure-reactivity relationship a common mechanism involving sulfur atom as the reaction site seems to be operative.

Dominant Part

Diffusion processes play a dominant part in the macro kinetics of Fe, Ni and Co oxidation by calcium and sodium sulfates. Here, the reaction product forms a compact covering which spatially divides the reagents on the surface in the same way as in the oxidation and sulfidization of metals by oxygen and sulfur. Therefore, it is possible to assume in advance that interaction of metals with calcium and sodium sulfates will be determined not by the actual chemical reaction properly but by the diffusion transport processes.

With the use of an isolated rat lung model, we investigated pulmonary air space absorption kinetics of the reactive gas NO2 in an effort to determine the contributory role of chemical reaction(s) vs. physical solubility. Unperfused lungs were employed, because vascular perfusion had no effect on acute (0- to 60-min) NO2 absorption rates. We additionally found the following: 1) Uptake was proportional to exposure rates (2-14 micrograms NO2/min; 10-63 ppm; 37 degrees C) but saturated with exposures greater than or equal to 14 micrograms NO2/min. 2) Uptake was temperature (22-48 degrees C) dependent but, regardless of temperature, attained apparent saturation at 10.6 micrograms NO2/min. 3) Lung surface area (SA) was altered by increasing functional residual capacity (FRC). Expanded SA (8 ml FRC) and temperature (48 degrees C) both raised fractional uptakes (greater than or equal to 0.81) relative to 4 ml FRC, 37 degrees C (0.67). Uptake rates normalized per unit estimated SA revealed no independent effect of FRC on fractional uptake. However, temperature produced a profound effect (48 degrees C = 0.93; 4 and 8 ml FRC = 0.54). 4) Arrhenius plots (ln k′ vs. 1/T), which utilized derived reactive uptake coefficients (k′), showed linearity (r2 = 0.94) and yielded an activation energy of 7,536 kcal.g-1.mol-1 and Q10 of 1.43, all consistent with a reaction-mediated process. These findings, particularly the effects of temperature, suggest that acute NO2 uptake in pulmonary air spaces is, in part, rate limited by chemical reaction of NO2 with epithelial surface constituents rather than by direct physical solubility.

The kinetics of oxidation of [Co(en)2SCH2COO]+ with S2O82- was studied in water-methanol and water-tert-butyl alcohol mixtures. Changes in the reaction activation parameters ∆H≠ and ∆S≠ with varying concentration of the co-solvent depend on the kind of the latter, which points to a significant role of salvation effects. The solvation effect on the reaction is discussed based on a comparison of the transfer functions ∆Ht0, ∆St0 and ∆Gt0 for the initial and transition states with the changes in the activation parameters accompanying changes in the CO-solvent concentration. The transfer enthalpies of the reactant were obtained from calorimetric measurements.

Abstract Background Early adiposity rebound (AR) has been associated with increased risk of overweight or obesity in adulthood. However, little is known about early predictors of age at AR. We aimed to study the role of perinatal factors and genetic susceptibility to obesity in the kinetics of AR. Methods Body mass index (BMI) curves were modelled by using mixed-effects cubic models, and age at AR was estimated for 1415 children of the EDEN mother–child cohort study. A combined obesity risk-allele score was calculated from genotypes for 27 variants identified by genome-wide association studies of adult BMI. Perinatal factors of interest were maternal age at delivery, parental education, parental BMI, gestational weight gain, maternal smoking during pregnancy, and newborn characteristics (sex, prematurity, and birth weight). We used a hierarchical level approach with multivariable linear regression model to investigate the association between these factors, obesity risk-allele score, and age at AR. Results A higher genetic susceptibility to obesity score was associated with an earlier age at AR. At the most distal level of the hierarchical model, maternal and paternal educational levels were positively associated with age at AR. Children born to parents with higher BMI were more likely to exhibit earlier age at AR. In addition, higher gestational weight gain was related to earlier age at AR. For children born small for gestational age, the average age at AR was 88 [±39] days lower than for children born appropriate for gestational age and 91 [±56] days lower than for children born large for gestational age. Conclusion The timing of AR seems to be an early childhood manifestation of the genetic susceptibility to adult obesity. We further identified low birth weight and gestational weight gain as novel predictors of early AR, highlighting the role of the intrauterine environment in the kinetics of adiposity.

Repressor protein period (PER) complexes play a central role in the molecular oscillator mechanism of the mammalian circadian clock. While the main role of nuclear PER complexes is transcriptional repression, much less is known about the functions of cytoplasmic PER complexes. We found with a biochemical screen for PER2-interacting proteins that the small GTPase regulator GTPase-activating protein and VPS9 domain-containing protein 1 (GAPVD1), which has been identified previously as a component of cytoplasmic PER complexes in mice, is also a bona fide component of human PER complexes. We show that in situ GAPVD1 is closely associated with casein kinase 1 delta (CSNK1D), a kinase that regulates PER2 levels through a phosphoswitch mechanism, and that CSNK1D regulates the phosphorylation of GAPVD1. Moreover, phosphorylation determines the kinetics of GAPVD1 degradation and is controlled by PER2 and a C-terminal autoinhibitory domain in CSNK1D, indicating that the regulation of GAPVD1 phosphorylation is a novel function of cytoplasmic PER complexes and might be part of the oscillator mechanism or an output function of the circadian clock.
