Default Comparison of black coral skeleton and insect cuticle by a combination of carbon-13 N

Comparison of black coral skeleton and insect cuticle by a combination of carbon-13 NMR and chemical analyses.

Related Articles Comparison of black coral skeleton and insect cuticle by a combination of carbon-13 NMR and chemical analyses.

Arch Biochem Biophys. 1992 Jan;292(1):107-11

Authors: Holl SM, Schaefer J, Goldberg WM, Kramer KJ, Morgan TD, Hopkins TL

Cross-polarization, magic-angle spinning 13C NMR spectra of skeletal components of individual colonies of the New Zealand black coral, Antipathes fiordensis, have a marked similarity to spectra of the sclerotized exoskeleton of the adult tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta. NMR analysis estimates the organic content of the load-bearing skeletal base of A. fiordensis as 70% protein, 10% chitin, 15% diphenol, and 5% lipid by weight, and that of M. Sexta moth cuticle as 60% protein, 20% chitin, 15% diphenol, and 5% lipid. The younger pinnules or tips of A. fiordensis are less than 3% diphenol by weight. The only diphenols extracted from coral skeleton by hydrochloric acid are 3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-DL-alanine (DOPA) and 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (DOBAL), while the predominant diphenols in acid extracts of insect cuticles are N-acyldopamines. More DOPA is found in the base than in the tips of A. fiordensis and it appears to be a peptidyl component of coral skeletal protein. The oxidation of DOPA and DOBAL to quinones may provide mechanical stabilization of the coral skeleton by cross-linking of structural proteins to other proteins or to chitin.

A simple protocol for amino acid type selective isotope labeling in insect cells with improved yields and high reproducibility
A simple protocol for amino acid type selective isotope labeling in insect cells with improved yields and high reproducibility Abstract An easy to use and robust approach for amino acid type selective isotope labeling in insect cells is presented. It relies on inexpensive commercial media and can be implemented in laboratories without sophisticated infrastructure. In contrast to previous protocols, where either high protein amounts or high incorporation ratios were obtained, here we achieve both at the same time. By supplementing media with a well considered amount of yeast extract,...

Triple resonance three-dimensional protein NMR: Before it became a black box.
Triple resonance three-dimensional protein NMR: Before it became a black box. Triple resonance three-dimensional protein NMR: Before it became a black box. J Magn Reson. 2011 Aug 30; Authors: Bax A Abstract Three-dimensional triple resonance experiments have become an integral part of virtually every solution NMR study of proteins. The approach relies on uniform isotopic enrichment of proteins with (13)C and (15)N, and establishes the scalar connectivity pathway between nuclei through the large (1)J(NH), (1)J(CH)(, 1)J(CC), and (1)J(CN)...
