چکیده
Proteins, from the Greek proteios, meaning first, are a class of organic compounds which are present in and vital to every living cell. In the form of skin, hair, callus, cartilage, muscles, tendons and ligaments, proteins hold together, protect, and provide structure to the body of a multi-celled organism. In the form of enzymes, hormones, antibodies, and globulins, they catalyze, regulate, and protect the body chemistry. In the form of hemoglobin, myoglobin and various lipoproteins, they effect the transport of oxygen and other substances within an organism.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF SULFUR MUSTARD REACTION WITH AMINO ACIDS AND PROTEINS
The interaction of sulfur mustard with aminoacids and proteins has been investigated in this study. Rats were injected with sublethal doses of sulfur mustard subcutaneously and intraperitoneally. At different time intervals, plasma and urine samples were collected. The binding affinity of sulfur mustard with urinary and plasma proteins and enzymes was studied for the first time using non-i...
متن کاملThermodynamic-Biochemical Study of Complexes of Intermediate Elements with α-Amino Acids in Some Proteins with Active Site
In this paper, the quantum chemistry calculations related to the structural parameter of the chromite and molybdate anions and the complexes obtained from them with the glycine and alanine amino acids were performed. The calculations were carried out using HF and DFT methods and in the base series 6-31G *. Thermodynamic studies related to the formation of complexes have been considered and thei...
متن کاملPattern of activity levels of amino trnasferases in the gonads of silkworm, Bombyx mori L.on exposure to prostaglandin F2
The impact of PGF2? on total proteins, free amino acids and the amino transferases in the gonads of silkworm, Bombyx mori L. were investigated in the present experiment. The effect of PGF2? resulted in increase in the total protein and free amino acid contents in the gonads of silkworm larvae indicating improved structural and dynamic levels of organization. The enhanced activity levels of amin...
متن کاملA STUDY OF ULTRASONIC ABSORPTION OF SOME AMINO ACIDS AND THEIR MIXTURES AT PHYSIOLOGICAL pH
In this paper, the ultrasonic absorption of amino acids was measured using a small cylindrical resonator at physiological pH and 25°C and a concentration of 0.1. M. The absorption of mixtures of some amino acids was also measured. In the case of cysteine-histidine, the absorption of mixtures is much larger (more than twice) than the summation of absorption of the individual amino acid. This...
متن کاملPerformance of 2-Amino Tetraphenyl Porphyrin as Stationary Phase in RP-HPLC of Amino Acids
The search for new stationary phases has been one of the predominant concerns in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in order to achieve better resolutions, longer column lives, and reduce the time of analysis. A chromatographic packing for separation of underivatized amino acids (AAs) were prepared by dynamically coating 2-amino tetraphenyl prophyrin (atpp) on a C-18 reversed-pha...
متن کاملبررسی تمایل مجاورت اسیدهای آمینه با یکدیگر در مارپیچهای آلفا
In order to study the tendency of amino acid neighbors in helical structures, proteins with known structures were carefully analyzed. The studied helical positions: N , Ncap, N1, N2, N3, N4, M, C4, C3, C2, C1, Ccap, C and their doublet counterparts: N Ncap, NcapN1, N1N2, N2N3, N3N4, M1M2, M2M3, C4C3, C3C2, C2C1, C1Ccap, CcapC were carefully analyzed. The propensity for all amino acids i...
