The dTDP-D-glucose 4,6-dehydratase from Salmonella enterica was immobilized using covalent binding to cyanogen bromide activated sepharose. The immobilized enzyme was used to produce dTDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-glucose, a key sugar intermediate that can be used economically to produce diverse classes of unusual sugars appended in various antibiotics. The enzyme was immobilized on the sepharose after activation with cyanogen bromide. The maximum immobilization (80.03％) was achieved after 14 h of coupling. The covalently immobilized enzyme was stable, and an average of 78.4 ％ conversion was achieved until 120 h of immobilization when it was repeatedly used. Similar conversion was noticed for the first batch using the enzyme entrapped-hydrogel but activity was gradually decreased in the following batches. The production of dTDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-glucose by using an immobilized enzyme has high potential for commercial application.

Reaction of barbituric acid (BA), 1,3-dimethyl barbituric acid (DMBA) and 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA) with cyanogen bromide and aldehydes in the presence of L-(+)-tartaric acid afforded a new route for the synthesis of stable heterocyclic 5-aryl-1H,1'H-spiro[furo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6,5'-pyrimidine]2,2',4,4',6'(3H,3'H,5H)-pentaones which is a dimeric form of barbiturate (uracil and thiouracil derivative). In the reaction of 1,3-diethyl thiobarbituric acid (DETBA) the Knoevenagel condensation and then Michael adducts were obtained under the same condition. Structure elucidation is carried out by $^1H$ NMR, $^{13}C$ NMR, FT-IR and Mass analyses. Mechanism of the formation is discussed.

Several enzyme immobilization methods has been compared for immobilization of pepsin. Carboxymethyl cellulose and diethylaminoethyl cellulose were activated with Hcl and with NaOH, and were used for immobilization of pepsin. Sepharose-4B was activated cyanogen bromide, and was used for immobilization of pepsin. Porous glass beads were derivatized with 3-aminopropyitrlethoxysilane and with succinicanhydride, and were used for immobilization of pepsin. The results abtained were summarized as follow, 1. 10 mg/gr. dry bead and 15mg/gr. dry bead of pepsin were absorbed to CM-cellulose and DEAE-cellulose, 20 mg/gr. dry bead and 27 mg/gr. dry bead were coupled to CM-cellulose and DEAE-cellulose with glutaraldehyde respectively. Enzyme yields were 22% and 24% of soluble pepsin. 2. 16 mg/gr. dry bead of pepsin was attached to cyanogen bromide activated sepharose-4B, 19mg/gr. dry bead was cross linked to the activated bead with glutaraldehyde. Immobilized enzyme activity was 23% of soluble pepsin. 3. 40 mg/gr. dry bead of pepsin was conjugated to the derivatized glass beads. Immobilized enzyme activity was 45% of soluble pepsin.

Methyl Bromide that was used as fumigation gas turned out to be the substance of destroying the ozone layer. For that reason, at the Montreal Protocol in 1987 the use of methyl bromide was forbidden starting 2005 in the advanced country. Also according to the 2007 Bali Protocolly methyl bromide is expected to be forbidden and therefore the purpose of this study is to find out the effects of substitution fumigation gas (Ethylene Oxide+HFC 134a, Methyl Iodide, Cyanogen and Argon) on the metal(silver, copper and iron), wood(oregon pine), pigment(yellow, red, blue, white and black), textile(hemp, ramie, jute, silk1 and silk2 / indigo, safflower and cork) and paper. After the fumigation test, ethylene oxide+HFC 134a did not have changes in the weight and color of the material itself before and after the experiment. On exterior alteration, color change occurred partly on paper and metal. Also, in most materials color change extent was 0.5 to 1.5 on the average and showed scanty difference. The materials after the fumigation test with methyl iodide did not show weight changes after the test. However, color changes more than 1.0 was shown in most of the materials especially in dyed textile material. In blue pigment, the discoloration on the surface could be seen by naked eyes. Fumigation test with cyanogen gas did not show weight changes and discoloration is more than 1.5 before and after the test. The weight changes of test materials with the argon gas was decreased about 3 to 6%. It can be observed that discoloration on paper was generated. Color changes can be seen on jute dyed with safflower and cork for two weeks with argon gas and the extent was 6.3 and 6.0.

Reaction of 1-methylpyrimidine-(1H,3H,5H)-2,4,6-trione (1-MBA 1) as an unsymmetrical barbituric acid with cyanogen bromide and various aldehydes in the presence of triethylamine and/or pyridine afforded diastereomeric mixtures of new class of heterocyclic stable 5-aryl-1,1'-dimethyl- and 5-aryl-3,1'-dimethyl-1H,1'H-spiro[furo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6,5'-pyrimidine]2,2',4,4',6'(3H,3'H,5H)-pentaones which are dimeric forms of 1-methyl barbiturate at the range of $0^{\circ}C$ to room temperature. In the reaction of some aldehydes with 1-MBA and BrCN were afforded a mixture of diastereomers. Another two aldehydes such as 4-cyano- and 2-hydroxybenzaldehydes gave exclusively two diastereomers in which binded to the salt of triethylammonium hydrobromide by intermolecular H-bond in ratio of 1:1. 4-Hydroxybenzaldehyde and 2-pyridinecarbaldehyde gave exclusively one diastereomer under the same condition. Aldehydes possessing strong electron-donor were produced exclusively two geometric isomers of Knoevenagel adduct (E- and Z-isomers). The structures of compounds were deduced by $^1H$ NMR, $^{13}C$ NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. Mechanism of the formation is discussed.

Condensation of 4-amino-5-mercapto-3-($\alpha$-naphthyl)-s-triazole (1) with cyanogen bromide gives 6-amino-3-($\alpha$-naphthyl)-s-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazole (2) which on condensation with chloranil yields 3,9-di-($\alpha$-naphthyl)-6,14-dioxo-bis-(s-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-b]imidazo[4,5-b]cyclohexane]-5a,6a-diene) (3). 3-($\alpha$-naphthyl)-s-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-b]imidazo[4,5-b]quinoxaline (4) is obtained by a similar condensation of (2) with 2,3-dichloroquinoxaline. The reaction of (2) with $\alpha$-haloketones followed by bromination affords 7-aryl-3-($\alpha$-naphthyl)-imidazo[2,1-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[2,3-c]-s-triazoles (5) and their 6-bromo analogues 6 respectively. The structures of all newly synthesized compounds were established on the basis of elemental analyses, IR, $^1H$-NMR. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of all newly synthesized compounds have also been evaluated.

Two kinds of sepharose-bound pronases were successfully prepared. The immobilized pronase, directly coupled to cyanogen-bromide activated sepharose, retains 22.6% of original specific activity against casein. However, ${\omega}-aminoalkyl$ sepharose immobilized pronases, in which extension arms of ${\omega}-aminoalkyl$ group $(number\;of\;-CH_2-\;is\;8,\;10,\;and\;12)$ are used, retain almost 100% of original specific activity. Studies of enzyme stability, pH dependence, temperature dependence, and Km values are presented.

A new method for synthesizing the tetrazole derivatives from secondary amines through cyanation/tetrazolation has been developed. Trichloroacetonitrile is used as the cyano source to synthesize N-nitrile instead of highly toxic and expensive cyanogen bromide. In this protocol, the reaction of secondary amines with various substituents proceed smoothly, and the desired tetrazole derivatives are obtained directly in fair to high yields without isolation of intermediate cyanamides.

We have synthesized several bicyclic heteroaromatic compounds with bridgehead nitrogen from N-amine salts of heteroaromatic amines. 2-Amino and 2-unsubstituted thiazolo[3,2-b][l,2,4]triazole derivatives 2a-b were prepared by the cyclization reaction from N-amine salts of aminothiazole-5-yl(N-methoxyimino)acetate with cyanogen bromide and formamidine acetic acid salt, respectively. 2-Methylthiazolo[3,2-b][1,2,4]triazole 2c was obtained from N-acetylated N-amine salt of aminothiazole-5-yl(N-methoxyimino)acetate by the cyclization reaction in the presence of polyphosphoric acid (PPA). 2-Substituted and 2-unsubstituted thiazole[3,2-b][1,2,4]triazole derivatives 2a-c were coupled with 7-aminocephalosporanic acid (7-ACA). Coupled cephalosporin derivatives 1a-c did not have good antibacterial activities in vitro.

Urokinase, a plasminogen activator, was conjugated with dextran by the cyanogen bromide activation-coupling method. The resulting water-soluble conjugate was purified by gel permeation chromatography on Sephadex G-200. The maximal activity was obtained when the ratio of urokinase/dextran was 1/20 for the coupling. The final preparation showed 5 CTA units/mg conjugate, 300 CTA units/mg protein, 8.4 % activity retention, and 47 % protein retention. The urokinase-dextran conjugate had good thermal, pH and storage stabilities. In addition, it showed greater resistance to the inhibitory effect of human plasma than native urokinase. Also in vitro biological half-life of urokinase increased 40 times by this conjugation. In view of activity, excellent stability and increased half-life, the conjugate can be a potential fibrinolytic agent in an injectable form.
