The electronic absorption spectra of five Schiff bases derived from 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde with glycine, alanine, leucine, valine and phenylalanine have been measured in various solvents. The observed bands were assigned to the proper electronic transitions and compared with the predicted transitions at the semiempirical level of theory. The calculated equilibrium constants are in agreement with the experimental results, predicting the existence of all studied compounds predominantly or completely in keto-imine tautomerism. On the other hand, a correlation between $\nu\;(cm^{-1})$ (main frequency of each compound) and the well known solvent parameters $E_T$ (30), $\varepsilon_T$, $\pi^*$ been made. Furthermore, the acid dissociation constants, $pK_a$, were determined by using three different spectrophotometric methods.

The Gutmann acceptor number(AN), solvatochromic parameters $({\alpha},{\beta}\;and\;{\pi}^{\ast})$ and hydrogen bonding equilibrium constants (KHB) were determined for three binary systems of methanol with 1,2-dimethoxyethane(DME), 1,2-dichloroethane(DCE) and pyridine (PYD). The solvolysis rate constants of t-butyl chloride, bromide and iodide were also determined in the three binary systems. Solvent properties and solvolysis rates have been discussed in the light of various solvent parameters. Solvolysis of t-butyl halides are most conveniently explained by the two-stage mechanism involving ion-pair intermediate with the ion-pair formation for chloride and ion pair dissociation for iodide as rate limiting.

The pressure-jump relaxation method has been used to determine the rate constants for the formation and dissociation of maganese(Ⅱ), cobalt(Ⅱ), and nickel(Ⅱ) with some dicarboxylates in aqueous solution at zero ionic strength. The carboxylate ligands used are 3-nitrophthalate, 4-nitrophthalate, and phenylmalonate. The activation parameters have alse been obtained from the temperature dependence of the rate constants. A dissociative interchange mechanism with a chelate ring closure step as rate determining is employed to interpret the kinetic data of manganese(Ⅱ) and cobalt(Ⅱ) complexes. The rates of formation of nickel(Ⅱ) complexes are controlled by both the solvent exchange step and the chelate ring closure step.

A hydrogenperoxide sensor containing peroxidase extracted from horseradish was constructed and pH effect on its sensing ability was investigated. Current profiles of the biosensor with pH and the electrophoretic analysis showed that horseradish peroxidase consists of two isozymes. Assuming that it is a hypothetical twoisozyme mixture, the current profiles were deconvoluted into two Gaussians. Application of the new Michaelis-Menten equation connoting pH concept to this system enabled to find all the related dissociation constants of the isozyme-substrates and the isozyme-proton complexes and to determine pHs for the maximal isozyme activities.

The molecular nature of aspirin hydrolysis was studied using cyclodextrin as a biomimetic model for esterase. Cyclodextrin was selected for this purpose because it meets the necessary requirements for the hydrolysis study, Dissociation constants and catalytic rates were obtained under alkaline conditions by the kinetic method.

In eukaryotes, eRF3 participates in translation termination and belongs to the superfamily of GTPases. In this work, the dissociation constants for nucleosides bound to Euplotes octocarinatus eRF3 in the presence and absence of eRF1a were determined using fluorescence spectra methods. Furthermore, a GTP hydrolyzing assay of eRF3 was carried out using an HPLC method, and the kinetic parameters for GTP hydrolysis by eRF3 were determined. Consistent with data from humans, the results showed that eRF1a promoted the binding of GTP to eRF3 and the GTP hydrolyzing activity of eRF3. However, in contrast to the lack of GTP binding in the absence of eRF1 in human eRF3, the E. octocarinatus eRF3 was able to bind GTP by itself. The nucleotide binding affinity of the E. octocarinatus eRF3 also differed from the human data. A structure model and amino acid sequence alignment of potential G domains indicated that these differences may be due to valine 317 and glutamate 452 displacing the conserved glycine and lysine involved in GTP binding.

TRIM72 is known to play a critical role in skeletal muscle membrane repair. To better understand the molecular mechanisms of this protein, we carried out an in vitro binding study with TRIM72. Our study proved that TRIM72 binds various lipids with dissociation constants ($K_d$) ranging from 88.2 ${\pm}$ 9.9 nM to 550.5 ${\pm}$ 134.5 nM. In addition, the intrinsic fluorescence of TRIM72 exponentially decreased when the protein was diluted with stirring. The time-resolved fluorescence decay occurred in a concentration-independent manner. The fluorescence-decayed TRIM72 remained in its secondary structure, but its binding properties were significantly reduced. The dissociation constants ($K_d$) of fluorescence-decayed TRIM72 for palmitate and stearate were 159.1 ${\pm}$ 39.9 nM and 355.4 ${\pm}$ 106.0 nM, respectively. This study suggests that TRIM72 can be dynamically converted by various stimuli. The results of this study also provide insight into the role of TRIM72 in the repair of sarcolemma damage.

$[^3H]$ Quinuclidinyl benzilate(QNB) binding assays were performed in the dog ventricular sarcolemma fraction enriched approx. 32-fold in sarcolemma compared to the starting homogenate to elucidate the effect of antihistaminics on cardiac muscarinic receptor. Chlorpheniramine(CHP) inhibited specific binding of $[^3H]$QNB and delayed the equilibrium binding. The rate constants at $37^{\circ}C$ for formation and dissociation of the QNB receptor complex were $0.38{\times}10^9\;M^{-1}$ and $1.6{\times}10^{-2}\;min^{-1}$, respectively. The mean value for the dissociation constant from the pairs of the rate constants was 43. 2 pM and this value was similar to the value(44.8pM) determined from Scatchard analysis. CHP decreased association rate constant, indicating increase in $K_D$ value. Decrease in affinity without affecting the binding site concentration$(B_{max})$ for $[^3H]$QNB binding by CHP was also demonstrated by Scatchard analysis. $K_i$ values for $H_i$-blockers that inhibited specific $[^3H]$QNB binding were $0.02{\sim}4.8{\mu}M$. Cimetidine with $K_i$ value of $230{\mu}M$, however, was ineffective in displacing $[^3H]$QNB binding at concentration of $50{\mu}M$. The Hill coefficient for $H_1$-blockers were about one. The results indicate that $H_1$-antihistaminics inhibit $[^3H]$ QNB binding by interaction with myocardiac muscarinic cholinergic receptor and anticholinergic side effects of these drugs are mainly due to this receptor blocking mechanism.

폴리아민 리간드인 diethylenetriamine(dien), triethylenetetramine(trien), tetraethylenepentamine(tetren), 및 pentaethylenehexamine(penten)을 Chloromethylated Polystyrene $({\circledP}-) 수지에 반응시켜 각기 {\circledP}_L-Dien, {\circledP}_L-Trien, {\circledP}_L-Tetren 및 {\circledP}_L-Penten 수지를 합성한 후 Bjerrum법으로 pH를 측정하여 산해리상수 및 금속과의 안정도상수를 결정하였으며, Van't Hoff 식에 의해 {\Delta}H와 {\Delta}G도 구하였다. 이들 수지의 안정도상수(log k1)는 금속이온의 종류에 따라 Cu(Ⅱ) > Ni(Ⅱ) > Cd(Ⅱ) > Zn(Ⅱ) > Co(Ⅱ)의 순으로 감소하였으며, 수지중 주게 원자인 질소수가 증가함에 따라 {\circledP}_L-Dien < {\circledP}_L-Trien < {\circledP}_L-Tetren < {\circledP}_L-Penten의 순으로 증가하였다. 그리고 pH 변화에 대한 금속이온의 흡착량 및 분리도를 시험해 본 결과 이들 금속이온과의 안정도 상수값의 순서와 일치하였다.
