In homogeneous catalysis, the catalyst is in the same phase as the reactant. The number of collisions between reactants and catalyst is at a maximum.In a patent, 14871-92-2, name is (2,2¡ä-Bipyridine)dichloropalladium(II), introducing its new discovery. Formula: C10H8Cl2N2Pd
Metal-Dependent DNA Recognition and Cell Internalization of Designed, Basic Peptides
A fragment of the DNA basic region (br) of the GCN4 bZIP transcription factor has been modified to include two His residues at designed i and i+4 positions of its N-terminus. The resulting monomeric peptide (brHis2) does not bind to its consensus target DNA site (5?-GTCAT-3?). However, addition of Pd(en)Cl2 (en, ethylenediamine) promotes a high-affinity interaction with exquisite selectivity for this sequence. The peptide-DNA complex is disassembled by addition of a slight excess of a palladium chelator, and the interaction can be reversibly switched multiple times by playing with controlled amounts of either the metal complex or the chelator. Importantly, while the peptide brHis2 fails to translocate across cell membranes on its own, addition of the palladium reagent induces an efficient cell internalization of this peptide. In short, we report (1) a designed, short peptide that displays highly selective, major groove DNA binding, (2) a reversible, metal-dependent DNA interaction, and (3) a metal-promoted cell internalization of this basic peptide.
We¡¯ll also look at important developments in the pharmaceutical industry because understanding organic chemistry is important in understanding health, medicine, the role of 14871-92-2, and how the biochemistry of the body works.Formula: C10H8Cl2N2Pd
