Three-component coupling of thiourea/urea, various structurally diverse aromatic aldehydes and ammonium acetate is catalyzed by activated fly ash in dry media under microwave irradiation to give 6-aryl-1,2,4,5-tetrazinan- 3-thiones/ones in good yields. The structure of 6-aryl-1,2,4,5-tetrazinan-3-thiones/ones have been elucidated on the basis of their melting points, elemental analysis, MS, IR, 1H NMR, D2O exchange, 13C NMR and two dimensional NMR spectral studies including Homonuclear Correlation (HOMOCOR) and Heteronuclear Single Quantum Correlation (HSQC) spectra.

Solution-state structure of native F430 was determined by using NMR methods and NMR-based distance geometry (DG) computations. Structures were generated with loose NOE-derived interproton distance restraints (2.0-2.5 Å, 2.0-3.5 Å and 2.0-4.5 Å for strong, medium, and weak NOE cross-peak intensities, respectively). 2D NOESY back-calculations of structures were subsequently carried out for establishing the consistence between experimental data and DG-model structures. The back-calculated 2D NOESY spectra of resulting DG structures were well consistent with experimental 2D NOESY spectra. Superposition of 20 independent structures with macrocyclic ring atoms and all atoms of F430 afforded pairwise root mean square deviations (RMSD) of 0.025-0.125 Å and 0.64-1.3 Å, respectively. The macrocyclic rings of structures are well converged to a unique conformation with saddle-shaped deformation whereas most of side chains are not converged. The average dihedral angle (N1-N2-N3-N4, 27.78±1.50°) of 20 DG-structures exhibits that the macrocyclic ring conformation is puckered as much as 12,13-diepimeric F430 (28.75±4.07°).

The NMR chemical shift arising from 4d electron angular momentum and 4d electron angular momentum and 4d electron spin dipolar-nuclear spin angular momentum interactions for a $4d^1$ system in a strong crystal field environment of trigonal symmetry, when the threefold axis is chosen to be the axis of quantization axis, has been examined. A general expression using the nonmultipole expansion method (exact method) is derived for the NMR chemical shift. From this expression all the multipolar terms are determined. We observe that along the (100), (010), (110), and (111) axes the NMR chemical shifts are positive while along the (001) axis, it is negative. We observe that the dipolar term (1/R3) is the dominant contribution to the NMR chemical shift except for along the (111) axis. A comparison of the multipolar terms with the exact values shows also that the multipolar results are exactly in agreement with the exact values around $R{\geqslant}0.2$ nm. The temperature dependence analysis on the NMR chemical shifts may imply that along the (111) axis the contribution to the NMR chemical shift is dominantly pseudo contact interaction. Separation of the contributions of the Fermi and the pseudo contact interactions would correctly imply that the dipolar interaction is the dominant contribution to the NMR chemical shifts along the (100), (010), (001), and (110) axes, but along the (111) axis the Fermi contact interaction is incorrectly the dominant contribution to the NMR chemical shift.

The solvent effects on the isotropic NMR shifts in conformationally rigid ligands such as quinuclidine, pyridine, and 4-aminopyridine coordinated to the paramagnetic polyoxometalate, [SiW11CoⅡO39]6- (SiW11Co), are reported. For these complexes the ligand exchange is slow on the NMR time scale and pure 1H NMR signals have been observed at room temperature. The signals for the SiW11Co complexes are shifted upfield whe dimethyl sulfoxide-d6 (DMSO) is added to a D2O solution. The isotropic shifts are separated into contact and pseudocontact contributions by assuming that the contact shifts are proportional to the isotropic shifts of the same ligands coordinated to [SiW11NiⅡO39]6-. It is shown that both the contact and pseudocontact shifts decrease (the absolute values of the pseudocontact shifts increase), when D2O is replaced by DMSO. It is suggested that D2O, a strong hydrogen bond donor, withdraws electron density from [SiW11CoⅡO39]6-, increasing the acidity of the cobalt ion toward the axial ligand. When D2O is replaced by DMSO, the acidity of the cobalt ion in SiW11Co decreases, weakening the Co-N bond. Then both the contact and pseudocontact shifts are expected to decrease in agreement with the observed solvent effects.

The fruits of Taxus cuspidata were collected, divided into seeds and fruits, and extracted with 95% EtOH. The extracts were evaporated under the reduced vacuum pressure, concentrated, then successively fractionated with a series of n-hexane, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate and water on a separatory funnel to get some freeze dried samples. A portion of the EtOAc (arils:1.65 g, seeds:1.04 g) and $H_2O$ (arils:7 g, seeds:10 g) soluble samples were chromatographed on a Sephadex column using MeOH-$H_2O$ (1:1, 1:3, 1:5, v/v), EtOH-hexane (3:1, v/v) mixture and 100% $H_2O$ as eluting solvents to isolate pure compounds from the fractions. The isolates were developed by cellulose TLC using t-BuOH-HOAc-$H_2O$ (TBA; 3:1:1, v/v/v) and 6% aqueous HOAc. Visualization was done under ultraviolet light and by spraying the vanillin-HCl-EtOH reagent (4.8:12:480, v/v/v). followed by heating. The structures of the isolates were characterized by $^1H$- and $^{13}C$-NMR, DEPT, 2D-NMR, LC/MS and EI-MS spectra. In addition to the NMR and MS spectra, acid hydrolysis and permethylation were used to determine the correct structure of the isolated sugar compound. Their structures were elucidated as (+)-catechin (1), (-)-epicatechin (2), (+)-gallocatechin (3), (-)-epigallocatechin (4) and ${\beta}$-D-fructofuranose-($2{\rightarrow}4$)-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranose($1{\rightarrow}4$)-O-${\alpha}$-D-glucopyranose ($1{\rightarrow}2$)-O-${\beta}$-D-fructofuranose (5) on the basis of the above experimental evidences.

The objective of this study was to establish an optimized 1D $^1H$ quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (qNMR) analytical method for analyzing polar metabolites in meat. Three extraction solutions [0.6 M perchloric acid, 10 mM phosphate buffer, water/methanol (1:1)], three reconstitution buffers [20 mM 3-morpholinopropane-1-sulfonic acid, 2-[4-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazin-1-yl]ethanesulfonic acid, phosphate buffer], and two pulse programs (zg30, noesypr1d) were evaluated. Extraction with 0.6 M perchloric acid and 20 mM phosphate resulted in a stable baseline and no additional overlap for quantifying polar metabolites in chicken breast. In qNMR analysis, zg30 pulse program (without water-suppression) showed smaller relative standard deviation (RSD) and faster running time than noesypr1d (water-suppression). High-performance liquid chromatography was compared with qNMR analyses to validate accuracy. The zg30 pulse program showed good accuracy and lower RSD. The optimized qNMR method was able to apply for beef and pork samples. Thus, an optimized 1D $^1H$ qNMR method for meat metabolomics was established.

Annexin I is a member of the in family of calcium dependent phospholipid banding proteins and is an in vitro phospholipase $A_2$ (PLA$_2$) inhibitor. The mechanism of PLA$_2$ inhibition by annexin I is still ambiguous. The structure of annexin I was studied at the atomic level by using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), circular dichrotsm (CD) and fluorescence spectroscopy. Recombinant human annexin I and N-terminally truncated annexin I (1-31 deleted: d-annexin I) were purified and their NMR spectra were compared. The NMR spectra of the two were similar. When $Ca^{2+}$ ion added to annexin I ad d-annexin I, peak broadening occurred, but no significant spectroscopic change was observed. When porcine pancreatic PLA$_2$ was added to deuterium labeled annexin I, an interaction of annexin I with PLA$_2$ was observed as indicated by the disappearance and shift of several peaks in the NMR spectrum. This result supports a protein-protein interaction mechanism for PLA$_2$ inhibition by annexin I.I.

BldD, a developmental transcription factor from Streptomyces coelicolor, is a homodimeric, DNA-binding protein with 167 amino acids in each subunit. Each monomer consists of two structurally distinct domains, the N-terminal domain (BldD-NTD) responsible for DNA-binding and dimerization and the C-terminal domain (BldD-CTD). In contrast to the BldD-NTD, of which crystal structure has been solved, the BldD-CTD has been characterized neither in structure nor in function. Thus, in terms of structural genomics, structural study of the BldD-CTD has been conducted in solution, and in the present work, mainchain NMR assignments of the recombinant BldD-CTD (residues 80-167 of BldD) could be achieved by a series of heteronuclear multidimensional NMR experiments on a [$^{13}C/^{15}N$]-enriched protein sample. Finally, the secondary structure prediction by CSI and TALOS+ analysis using the assigned chemical shifts data identified a ${\beta}-{\alpha}-{\alpha}-{\beta}-{\alpha}-{\alpha}-{\alpha}$ topology of the domain. The results will provide the most fundamental data for more detailed approach to the atomic structure of the BldD-CTD, which would be essential for entire understanding of the molecular function of BldD.

The 1H NMR signals of the heme methyl, propionate and related chemical groups of cytochrome C3 from Desulfovibrio vulgaris Miyazaki F (D.v. MF) were assigned by means of 1D NOE, 2D DQFCOSY and 2D TOCSY spectra. They were consistent with the assignments of the hemes with the highest and second-lowest redox potentials reported by Gayda et al. [Reference: 15]. The heme assignments were also supported by NOE between the methyl groups of these hemes and the side chain of Val-18, All the results contradicted the heme assignments for D.v. MF cytochrome C3 made on the basis of NMR [Reference: 11]. Based on these assignments, the interaction of cytochrome C3 with ferredoxin I was investigated by NMR. The major interaction site of cytochrome C3 was identified as the heme with the highest redox potential, which is surrounded by the highest density of positive charges. The stoichiometry and association constant were two cytochrome C3 molecules per monomer of ferredoxin I and 108 M-2 (at 53 mM ionic strength and $25^{\circ}C$), respectively.
