The term flavin stands for the yellow redox-active subgroup of the first coenzyme ever to be elucidated in terms of molecular structure. The heroic period of redox-enzymology of the early thirties ended in Hugo Theorell s 172—175) description of the first enzyme ever to be split reversibly to yield coenzyme and apoprotein. This was the NADPH- [Pg.451]

in the present review, flavin is rediscovered as a natural product , it is for two reasons  [Pg.453]

These phenomena can be classified as unnatural properties of natural products , and this explains why commercially available natural flavocoenzymes are largely unsuitable as chemical models for the flavo-holoprotein active sites. [Pg.453]

In order to obtain better chemical models for protein-bound flavin, one has to either acetylate or cut the ribityl side chain of riboflavin down to a methyl group (but not further) and to remove the pairing N(3)-hydrogen by alkylation. These derivatives, i.e. 3,10-dialky 1-isoalloxazines [Pg.453]

To summarize, good flavin models and protein-bound flavin must differ from free flavocoenzymes and vitamins by their lack of self-stacking, self-pairing, (photolytic) self-deleting and pronounced hydrophilic properties. [Pg.454]

Wesley Smith has already acknowledged the decisive influence of Boerhaave on the modern image of Hippocrates. He argued that Boerhaave who had such an effect on ideas of medicine, also affected medical history, and he did so in such a way that his outlook became the view, as though there was no other way in which the past could be conceived. 9 Andrew Cunningham has similarly argued that... [Pg.65]

The year 1994/95 provides a turning point in the history and future outlook of the fertilizer industry. Since 1988/89, global fertilizer use had been declining due to the drastic reduction in fertilizer use in the former centrally planned economies. The year 1994/95 is the first year after the fall of the Berlin wall in 1988 when global fertilizer use registered a 2% increase. During the 1994/ 95-2004/05 period, fertilizer demand is projected to increase by 2%/year - from 123 million nutrient tonnes in 1994/95 to 150 million nutrient tonnes in 2004/ 05. The demand for aD three nutrients is projected fo increase at 1.9% 2.1% per annum. Nitrogen demand is projected to increase from 74 miflion nutrient tonnes in 1994/95 to 89 million nutrient tonnes in 2004/05. Phosphate and potash demand is projected to increase... [Pg.80]

The key documents of the CDIO approach have been updated. The CDIO Syllabus v2.0 has added two new sections on leadership and entrepreneurship, and given more emphasis to certain topics that were previously subsumed under other headings, for example, ethics, social responsibility, and sustainability. The CDIO Standards v2.0 now includes distinct rubrics for each standard to facilitate self-evaluation. The general structure of the chapters remains the same in that they parallel the CDIO Standards. The chapters on implementation, history of engineering, and outlook have also been updated sinee the first edition. [Pg.318]

Thus, the dictionary section itself could be limited to scientific, technical and economical facts. [Pg.377]

Foucault, like his French predecessor and mentor, Gaston Bachelard, paid particular attention to the primacy in history of discursive breaks and ruptures in knowledge or belief systems.3 In this and in Foucault s emphasis on the relative coercion that disciplines exercised on their practitioners, he made arguments already familiar to Anglo-American scholars acquainted with Kuhn s characterizations of "normal science" and the reasons for a scientific community s coherent outlook. However, unlike Kuhn, Foucault declined to dissect the so-called hard sciences as objects of inquiry, restricting himself to discourses and power relationships in the medical, biological, and social sciences.4 However, Foucault did see the potential in the application of his method for the destruction of the demarcation between scientific and nonscientific spheres of action and belief. [Pg.32]

The Revisionists are neither diabolical nor negative. By no means are they naysayers . They are positive in outlook. At the conclusion of their research - which is positivist in character - they affirm that certain beliefs are just myths. Such myths are harmful in that they feed hatred. The Revisionists strive to describe what has taken place and not what has not taken place. In sum and substance, what they proclaim to a wretched humanity is good news. Seeking only historical accuracy, they find themselves fighting against calumny and for justice. They have suffered and they will continue to suffer, but I believe, all things considered, that history will declare them right and render them justice.24... [Pg.12]
