STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF CYCLOSPORIN-A BY RAMAN TECHNIQUE
The Raman spectrum of cyclosporin-A has been recorded in the solid phase. The conformation of the molecule has been discussed on the basis of Raman data. It has been concluded that in agreement with X-ray data, cyclosporin-A molecule has an antiparallel P- pleated sheet conformation. It may have some reverse P- turn structure in what has been assigned to a random coil conformation.
متن کاملEssential structural requirements for specific recognition of HIV TAR RNA by peptide mimetics of Tat protein
The pharmacological disruption of the interaction between the HIV Tat protein and its cognate transactivation response RNA (TAR) would generate novel anti-viral drugs with a low susceptibility to drug resistance, but efforts to discover ligands with sufficient potency to warrant pharmaceutical development have been unsuccessful. We have previously described a family of structurally constrained ...
متن کاملTertiary Element Interaction in HIV-1 TAR
HIV-1 replication requires binding to occur between Trans-activation Response Element (TAR) RNA and the TAT protein. This TAR-TAT binding depends on the conformation of TAR, and therapeutic development has attempted to exploit this dynamic behavior. Here we simulate TAR dynamics in the context of mutations inhibiting TAR binding. We find that two tertiary elements, the apical loop and the bulge...
متن کاملStructural and Raman Spectroscopic Study of Antimony Doped Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 Electroceramic
Pure and Antimony (Sb, x = 0.01%, 0.02% and 0.03%) doped Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 electro ceramics were successfully synthesized by a conventional solid state reaction route. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that a distinct 002/200 peak splitting appears when doping percentage changes from 0.02 to 0.03, referring to a hexagonal symmetry. The data show the Lorentzian deconvolution of the 002 and 200 peak...
