Synthesis and characterization by 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of 17 alpha-cyano, 17 alpha-aminomethyl, and 17 alpha-alkylamidomethyl derivatives of 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone and testosterone

17 alpha-Aminomethyl, 17 alpha-acetamidomethyl, and 17 alpha-hemiglutaramidomethyl derivatives of dihydrotestosterone and testosterone have been prepared by hydrocyanation of 3,3'-(ethylenedioxy)-5 alpha-androstan-17-one and 3,3'-ethylenedioxyandrost-5-en-17-one, reduction of the corresponding acetylated 17 alpha-cyanohydrins with lithium aluminium hydride, and acylation of the resulting 17 alpha-aminomethyl derivatives with either acetic anhydride or the mono acid chloride of glutaric acid mono methyl ester. Saponification of the 17 alpha-hemiglutaramidomethyl methyl esters gave the corresponding hemiglutaramido derivatives, while acid hydrolysis of the 3-ethylene ketal group of 17 alpha-acetamidomethyl and 17 alpha-hemiglutaramidomethyl derivatives regenerated the 3-oxo and 3-oxo-4-ene functions. The 17 alpha-configuration of 17-substituted steroids was determined by 1H and 13C NMR and confirmed by comparing with NMR data for 17 alpha- and 17 beta-cyano-17-hydroxyandrost-4-en-3-one, 17 beta-cyano-3,3'-(ethylenedioxy)androst-5-en-17-ol, 17 alpha-alkynyl, and 17 alpha-hexanoic derivatives of dihydrotestosterone and testosterone, of known 17-configurations. Several ambiguous assignments of 13C NMR signals of 17 alpha-substituted steroids and unsubstituted 17 beta-hydroxy or 17-oxo precursors have been resolved using steroid analogs deuterated at positions C5-7, or C16 for androstane derivatives, and at positions C6-7, or C7 for androstene derivatives. 17 alpha-Aminomethyl and 17 alpha-alkylamidomethyl derivatives of dihydrotestosterone and testosterone are useful intermediates for the access to potential ligands of androgen-binding proteins necessary for affinity chromatography purification or affinity-labeling experiments.     

PWM应用中的低电压反馈

就低电压高电流电源应用而言,开关式电源栅极驱动要求特别重要.由于几个MOSFET器件通常并联以满足特定设计的高电流规范要求,因此单一集成电路控制器与驱动器解决方案就变的不再可行.     

高效、小体积AC-DC电源设计

在大多数情况下,AC—DC电源需要有源功率因数校正（PFC）。在选择最佳电源拓扑以及两个转换器级的控制技术时,必须进行谨慎全面的考虑。一种具有众多高效特性的系统解决方案是结合交错式双临界传导模式（BCM）PFC与隔离式DC-DC转换器,其中,前者后面跟着不对称半桥（AHB）,     

Specific photoaffinity labeling of Tyr-49 on the light chain in the steroid-combining site of a mouse monoclonal anti-estradiol antibody using two epimeric 6alpha- and 6beta-(5-azido-2-nitrobenzoyl)amidoestradiol photoreagents

A mouse monoclonal anti-7-(O-carboxymethyl)oximinoestradiol antibody was photoaffinity labeled with two cross-reactive 6alpha- and 6beta-(5-azido-2-nitrobenzoyl)amido[17alpha-3H]estradiol photoreagents (6alpha- and 6beta-ANBA-[17alpha-3H]estradiol). Covalently bound radioactivity was found exclusively on the light chain. The maximal level of specific incorporation was 0.18 mol of label per mole of antibody for both photoreagents. In both cases, tryptic digestion of the photolabeled light chain, immunopurification with the immobilized antibody, reverse-phase liquid chromatography, and Edman degradation showed the presence of radioactive peptide GLM-([3H]X)-HGNTLEDGIPSR derived from peptide 46-61 of the light chain sequence (determined from cDNA) in which the unidentified amino acid corresponding to X is a Tyr residue. Two other radioactive peptides were also isolated, one corresponding probably to the methionine sulfoxide derivative of the peptide 46-61 photolabeled with the 6beta-reagent and the other to the N-terminal tetrapeptide 46-49 of the peptide 46-61 photolabeled with the 6alpha-reagent. In all cases, the main peak of radioactivity was released at the fourth Edman cycle, thus suggesting that the same Tyr-49 residue on the light chain was photolabeled. This residue is contiguous to the N-terminal amino acid of the second hypervariable complementary determining region 50-56 of light chain. Covalent labeling was confirmed by mass spectrometry of photolabeled peptides which showed molecular ion values corresponding to the addition of the photoactive 6alpha- or 6beta-ANBA-estradiol nitrene derivatives to the peptide.     

MOSFET门极驱动电压的优化

电源设计人员通过正确匹配MOSFET在驱动时的门极驱动电压，有时能够获得额外的效率提高。采用较高的电压驱动MOSFET门极将导致较低的关联导通电阻Rds(ON)，直到低至某一特定值。在众多高电流隔离式电源应用中我们可以发现，这对低电压高电流VRM设计以及控制驱动的同步整流器而言是十分有益的。在同步降压电源应用中，降低
