Amino unmodified

It has been shown that an AAC enzyme variant (AAC (6 )-Ib-cr, cr for ciprofloxacin resistance) found in various Enterobacteriaceae is capable of A-acetylating fluoroquinolones with an unmodified piperazinyl substituent at the amino nitrogen. Although the increase in MIC is low, this plasmid encoded quinolone resistance determinant can augment further development of clinically relevant resistance. 

Although open tubular columns have been used for RPLC,42 most applications use packed columns. The most widely used column packings are formed by chemically bonding butyl (C4), octyl (C8), or octadecyl (C18) chains to a silica surface. Phenyl (Ph), cyano (CN), and amino (NH2) functionalities are also used. Polymeric packings which are finding broad acceptance include alkyl-grafted poly(methylmethacrylate) and alkyl-grafted or unmodified... 

Organic-Base Catalyzed. Asymmetric direct aldol reactions have received considerable attention recently (Eq. 8.98).251 Direct asymmetric catalytic aldol reactions have been successfully performed using aldehydes and unmodified ketones together with chiral cyclic secondary amines as catalysts.252 L-proline and 5,5-dimethylthiazolidinium-4-carboxylate (DMTC) were found to be the most powerful amino acid catalysts for the reaction of both acyclic and cyclic ketones as aldol donors with aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes to afford the corresponding... 

The significance of protein oxidation became paramount with the advent of recombinant protein biologies used as human therapeutics. Careful characterization of protein stability is essential to maintaining the efficacy of protein pharmaceuticals. If even a single side chain amino acid residue becomes oxidized, then a protein therapeutic may not have the same activity in vivo as the unmodified protein. 

The Klotz group has also found rate enhancements of decarboxylation reactions with PEI derivatives. Catalysis of decarboxylation of j -keto acids by small amines goes via a Schiff base intermediate. Mine s group has shown that unmodified PEI catalyzes dedeuteration effectively and that the reactions involve Schiff base intermediates 34, and references therein). Dodecyl-PEI containing free amino groups and quaternized nitrogens, dodecyl-PEI-Q-NHj, was found to be an effective catalyst for the decomposition of oxaloacetate (reaction 12) (92). At pH 4.5 the polymer is 10 times as effective as ethylamine. was found to be 3.5 x 10 " M at pH 4.5. 

The TAR RNA target sequence, the 2 -amino RNA library and the appended aldehydes were subjected to the DCC SELEX system. The screen selected a 19-nt sequence with U-NH appended at position 9 and unmodified at positions 6 and 7 (Eig. 3.20). Importantly, it was shown that different sequences were identified when control selections were carried out in the absence of aldehydes, proving that the imino-conjugated nucleic acids are being selected. 

The mass spectra of mosapride and the impurity generated by LC-MS were compared (Figure 6.14). The impurity shows MH" at m/z 404, and comparing this with MH of mosapride at miz 422, the mass difference observed is 18 Da. From the single quadrupole experiments, fragments at m/z 198 and 170 with the characteristic chlorine isotopic abundance can be seen in both mosapride and its impurity. This indicated that the 4-amino-5-choro-2-ethoxy-benzamide moiety was unmodified.
