1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine as a substrate of cytochrome P450 2D6: allosteric effects of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase

1-Methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), a neurotoxin that produces Parkinsonism symptoms in man, has been examined as a substrate of recombinant human cytochrome P450 2D6. When cumene hydroperoxide is used as an oxygen and electron donor, a single product is formed, identified as 4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine. The K(m) for formation of this product (130 microM) is in agreement with the dissociation constants for MPTP binding to the enzyme determined by optical and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. When the reaction is carried out with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (reduced) (NADPH) and recombinant human NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase, a second product, identified as 1-methyl-4-(4'-hydroxyphenyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine, is formed in addition to 4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine. The K(m) values for formation of these two products are 19 microM and 120 microM, respectively. Paramagnetic relaxation experiments have been used to measure distances between the protons of bound MPTP and the heme iron, and these have been used to construct models for the position and orientation of MPTP in the active site. For the cytochrome alone, a single mode of binding was observed, with the N-methyl close to the heme iron in a position appropriate for the observed N-demethylation reaction. In the presence of the reductase, the data were not consistent with a single mode of binding but could be explained by the existence of two alternative orientations of MPTP in the active site. One of these, characterized by a dissociation constant of 150 microM, is essentially identical to that observed in the absence of the reductase. In the second, which has a K(d) of 25 microM, the MPTP is oriented so that the aromatic ring is close to the heme iron, in a position appropriate for p-hydroxylation leading to the formation of the product seen only in the presence of the reductase. In the case of codeine, another substrate for cytochrome P450 2D6, the addition of reductase had no effect on the nature of the product formed, the dissociation constant, or the orientation in the binding site. These observations show that NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase has an allosteric effect on the active site of cytochrome P450 2D6 that affects the binding of some substrates but not others.     

激光辐照制备搪瓷涂层

激光辐照制备的搪瓷涂层表面粗糙,与金属基材结合牢固。一般由 Si,Al,Na,K,B,F,O等元素组成。在激光辐照过程中 K,Na 明显地挥发,从而在涂层中的含量明显减少;Co,Ni,主要分布在界面附近;Fe 元素也由基材进入涂层,呈梯度状分布,在界面过渡区含量很高,在涂层内含量很低。搪瓷涂层的形成与激光辐照参数,特别与激光功率间存在极为密切的关系;只有选用合理的参数,才能制得搪瓷涂层。     

Structure and Properties of Electroless Ni Deposits

The changes in structure and the hardness of two electroless deposited Ni-P alloy coatings (with P content of 1.5 and 9.5 wt pct) with heat treatment have been studied by XRD and TEM. The deposits containing 1.5 wt pct P can be represented as an fcc NiP supersaturated solid solution of 5~10 nm microcrystallites. whereas the deposits containing 9.5 wt pct P are amorphous. The heat treatment process induces crystallization of amorphous Ni to Ni phosphides and fcc Ni.Both of the deposits reach maximum hardness after annealing at 400℃ for 1 h. All coated steel specimens are inferior in fatigue strength to uncoated steel specimens mainly due to the poor fatigue resistance of the coating itself

榆树林油田砂岩储层敏感性研究

榆树林油田储层粘土矿物含量较高，各种注入条件和施工条件都会对该储层造成相应的伤害，应采取相应的防护措施，为防止速敏的发生，储层的注水速度应控制在临界流速（1.0mL/min）以下，在油井转注时，可先注入1.09PV的含粘土稳定剂的进行处理，以提高产量或注入量，注入阴离子表面活性剂配置的活性水再注入地层水，不能增加地层水的渗透率，该项试验研究对指导榆树林油田的开发具有重要的意义。
