Ribosomal Protein Synthesis Inhibitors. Figure 5 Nucleotides at the binding sites of chloramphenicol, erythromycin and clindamycin at the peptidyl transferase center. The nucleotides that are within 4.4 A of the antibiotics chloramphenicol, erythromycin and clindamycin in 50S-antibiotic complexes are indicated with the letters C, E, and L, respectively, on the secondary structure of the peptidyl transferase loop region of 23S rRNA (the sequence shown is that of E. coll). The sites of drug resistance in one or more peptidyl transferase antibiotics due to base changes (solid circles) and lack of modification (solid square) are indicated. Nucleotides that display altered chemical reactivity in the presence of one or more peptidyl transferase antibiotics are boxed. 

Application of mechanical stresses, implicitly altering chemical potentials, can also effect further changes, as illustrated by Morgan et al. for a fluoroelastomer in aqueous amine environment at several temperatures this study indicated that a balance existed between the amine attack... 

A change of state is a physical change that does not alter chemical properties. It usually takes place by increasing or decreasing the temperature of a substance. The ability to change the state of substances is important in the synthesis and purification of chemicals. 

A chemical system is a mixture of individual components. Chemical systems can be described by interactions that occur within the system and by the effect these processes have on the chemical composition and phases of the system. Interactions that change the chemical structure of system components are called chemical reactions. (Other interactions, such as processes that alter the solubility of system components, change the system without altering chemical structures.) Whether one reaction or a set of reactions occurs and how quickly the reaction proceeds are determined by the thermodynamics and kinetics of the system. 

Polymer grafting can be used to alter chemical and physical properties of a homopolymer. For example, Sawhney and Hubbell [18] grafted polyethyleneoxide to poly L-lysine to enhance biocompatibility of polylysine and improve the polylysine-alginate capsules. Stevenson and Sefton [19] modified alginate by grafting it with hydroxyalkyl methacrylate, again to improve the biocompatibility and to allow for polymerization by means of y-irradiation. Covalently modified (co)-polymers have not been evaluated in this study. 

Another early suggestion was that some of the fullerene carbon atoms could be replaced by another element such as nitrogen or boron.1811 Such heterofullerenes are envisaged to have strongly altered chemical properties in comparison to the all-carbon structures.1811 For example, as the substitution number of an electronegative element such... 

Artificially strained surfaces D. Residual surface layers of altered composition E. Surface layers consisting of secondary precipitates F. Surface layers whose composition has been altered chemically during sample preparation. 

In a study with 3 EMS patients the relative signal intensities in proton spectra recorded at an echo time of 50 ms with a repetition time of 2 s were quantitatively compared with healthy controls. It was evident that the muscle specific signals from TMA and Cr are relatively low in EMS patients (TMA 0.20-0.43% in the patients and 0.47-0.68% in the controls creatine 0.32-0.60% in the patients and 0.48-0.77% in the controls) probably indicating changes of concentrations and altered chemical surroundings of TMA and Cr in the myoplasm of the diseased cells. The overall lipid signal was found to be... 

Certain bases in DNAmay be altered chemically, by methylation for example. These alterations may have important consequences for regulation of gene function. 

The term drug refers to a much greater array of chemicals than these health-related substances. It also includes dozens of natural and synthetic products used for recreational or nontherapeutic purposes mind-altering chemicals that help humans escape from the "real world. Among these compounds are stimulants (uppers), depressants (downers), and hallucinogens. 

A principle applied in physical organic chemistry to account for the effect of solvation on the rates of nucleophilic reactions. This theory states that an increase in the ion-solvating power of the medium will tend to speed up the formation and concentration of charges, thereby inhibiting their breakdown or diffusion. This approach is predicated on the idea that a more polar solvent can potentially stabilize ionic intermediates and alter chemical reactivity. 

Electrochemical reactions are catalytic reactions in which strong electric fields near surfaces are used to alter chemical equilibrium. By applying an external voltage V between two electrodes and creating an electric field in an ionically conducting solution, we can cause current to flow and reaction to occur at electrodes. The Gibbs free energy is altered from its value in the absence of an electric field by the Faraday relation... 

Other sorbent tubes are designed to trap vapors by a chemical mechanism. Chemical sorption is almost always accomplished by coating a solid sorbent or support with the desired reactant. In this way, the substance of interest is not only removed from the gas stream being sampled, but is altered chemically. This type of sorption has the advantages of being more selective and rendering reactive substances stable. Many variables may affect the ability of a sorbent to collect an analyte. Some of the relevant factors are discussed below. 

Recently, greases have been developed in which chemically altered bentonite is used as a thickener instead of soap 10). The bentonite is purified by removal of silica and is altered chemically by reaction with alkyl amines. 

LSD and serotonin. LSD may exert its serotonin agonist and antagonist effects via the indoleamine molecular structure that both the synthetic and natural state altering chemicals possess. 

The physical property of primary concern in photochromic systems is the marked color change resulting from a major electronic rearrangement. Simultaneously with this color change, the other physical properties of the system are also altered to the extent of conversion to a new chemical species. In many cases, additional measurements aid the identification of the altered chemical species or in determining the mechanism for the photochromic activity. Occasionally, the reversible photochemi-... 

It must be emphasized diat angle strain, torsional strain, and transannular strain are simply terms invented by chemists to categorize structural features in rings which lead to increased energy (strain). The molecules diemselves adopt structures which are the most stable and have die greatest amount of bonding energy. Nevertheless, strain is an important feature in molecules to keep in mind since it is manifested by altered chemical reactivity. 

Why are geology and mineralogy discussed in a book on ceramics The main reason is the fact that nature shows us which materials might be suitable ceramic materials for various applications. Over the past millions of years nature has produced an enormous variety of rocks and minerals with numerous properties. Researching these products has taught us how nature shaped them and what their structure are like. Nowadays these production processes can be imitated in the laboratory, very often within a short period of time. In addition, most ceramic raw materials are obtained from nature and sometimes altered chemically or physically in the laboratory. This means that the ceramicist must have a good knowledge of these raw materials. 

A main adimntage of immobilized enzyme is that it can be reused since it can be easily separated from the reaction solution and can be easily retained in a continuous-flow reactor. Furthermore, immobilized enzyme may show selectively altered chemical or physical properties and it may simulate the realistic natural environment where the enzyme came from, the cell. 

Our preliminary experiments suggest that, like the interaction between glycosaminoglycans and lipoproteins, the interaction between pectin and lipoprotein is also caused by the electrostatic attraction between polyanionic pectin and cationic lipoprotein. To elucidate this hypothesis, the charge profile of lipoproteins will be altered chemically and the influence of these alterations on the interaction with pectic polysaccharides at optimum experimental conditions will be determined.
