Compound constructions

A large number of phosphorus compounds possess P - O bond(s) as phosphate esters (e.g., DNA, RNA, ATP, phospholipids, etc.) and these phosphates play important roles in living systems. Unlike a P - O bond, a P - C bond constructs phosphorus molecules, which are relatively reduced molecules compared to compounds constructed with a P - O bond. Both of the two... 

Volatile organic -compounds Construction of passing samples with sorbent tube that fits into sample chamber fitted with a diffusional membrane permeable to organic vapours. Organics desorbed from sorbent and analysed by GC-MS [73]... 

This chapter reviews our knowledge of several key issues pertaining to the environmental presence of these compounds. Constructing source inventories for... 

Construction cost The total construction cost of the plant during the one year prior to startup is 600,000 occurring uniformly during the year. The compounded construction cost at zero time, therefore, is the future worth of this 600,000 after one year flowing uniformly throughout the year with continuous compounding. Thus, by Eq. (37) of Chap. 7 or part (/) of Table 3 in Chap. 7. 

A microunit bearing multiple copies of a single library individual exists for both formats (the resin bead versus the phage virion) that is, the one-bead, one-compound concept is paralleled by the one-virion, one-compound construct. 

Protein. Class of biochemical compounds constructed from amino acids. Proteins may be structural, such as those that make up hair and cartilage, or they may be reactive, such as the enzymes. 

Only compounds constructed from discrete neutral molecular species will be considered as co-crystals, and all solids containing ions, including complex transition-metal ions, are excluded from this overview. 

Terpenes are a large class of hydrocarbon compounds constructed from five-carbon isoprene units that are combined to produce a great variety of skeletons, which are then acted upon by various enzymes to add functionality and altered oxidation. Terpene-derived compounds possess a broad array of activities and are produced by animal, plant, and bacterial sources. This pathway has been reviewed extensively elsewhere" but, briefly, involves chain extension of isoprene units into phosphorylated chains in multiples of five carbons. The initially formed linear prenyl chains are then acted upon by other enzymes resulting in cyclization and additional modifications. For example, one class of modification involves oxygenation on the ring before cyclization to yield lactone and furan moieties, or postcyclization to yield carbonyl and alcohol functionalities.
