- During the course of a study to elucidate the role ofmodification of the common polysaccharide-protein linkagestructure, GlcAb1–3Galb1–3Galb1–4Xylb1-O-Ser, inbiosynthetic sorting mechanisms of the different sulfatedglycosaminoglycan chains, a novel N-acetylgalactosamine(GalNAc) transferase was discovered in fetalbovine serum. The enzyme catalyzed the transfer of[3H]GalNAc from UDP-[3H]GalNAc to linkage tetrasaccharideand hexasaccharide serines synthesized chemicallyand to various regular oligosaccharides containingterminal D-glucuronic acid (GlcA), which were preparedfrom chondroitin and chondroitin sulfate using testicularhyaluronidase digestion. The labeled products obtainedwith the linkage tetra- and hexasaccharideserines and with the tetrasaccharide (GlcAb1–3GalNAc)2were resistant to digestion with chondroitinase AC-IIand b-N-acetylhexosaminidase but sensitive to a-Nacetylgalactosaminidasedigestion, indicating that theenzyme is an a-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase. Thisfinding is in contrast to that of Rohrmann et al. (Rohrmann,K., Niemann, R., and Buddecke, E. (1985) Eur. J.Biochem., 148, 463–469), who reported that a correspondingproduct was susceptible to digestion with b-Nacetylhexosaminidase.The presence of a sulfate groupat C4 of the penultimate GalNAc or Gal units markedlyinhibited the transfer of GalNAc to the terminal GlcA,while a sulfate group at C6 of the GalNAc had little effecton the transfer. Moreover, a slight but significant transferof [3H]GalNAc was observed to an oligosaccharidecontaining terminal 2-O-sulfated GlcA as acceptor,whereas no incorporation was detected into oligosaccharidescontaining terminal unsaturated or 3-O-sulfatedGlcA units. These results suggest that this novelserum enzyme is a UDP-GalNAc:chondro-oligosaccharidea1–3- or 1–4-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase.

C60 one- and two-dimensional polymers, dimers, and hard fullerite: Thermal expansion, anharmonicity, and kinetics of depolymerization
- 1999

Ingår i: Physical Review B. Condensed Matter and Materials Physics. - : American Physical Society. - 1098-0121 .- 1550-235X. ; 60:24, s. 16920-16927

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We report on high-resolution thermal expansion measurements of high-temperature-pressure treated C60 [one-dimensional (1D) and (2D) polymers and “hard fullerite”], as well as of C60 dimers and single crystal monomer C60 between 10 and 500 K. Polymerization drastically reduces the thermal expansivity from the values of monomeric C60 due to the stronger and less anharmonic covalent bonds between molecules. The expansivity of the “hard” material approaches that of diamond. The large and irreversible volume change upon depolymerization between 400 and 500 K makes it possible to study the kinetics of depolymerization, which is described excellently by a simple activated process, with activation energies of 1.9±0.1 eV (1D and 2D polymers) and 1.75±0.05 eV (dimer). Although the activation energies are very similar for the different polymers, the depolymerization rates differ by up to four orders of magnitude at a given temperature, being fastest for the dimers. Preliminary kinetic data of C70 polymers are presented as well.

- The thermal stability of C60 dimers and 2D pressure-polymerized C60 is studied using high-resolution capacitance dilatometry. The transformation of both the dimer and the polymer phases back to 'normal' C60 is excellently described by a simple thermally activated process with activation energies of 1.75 +/- 0.1 eV (dimer) and 1.9 +/- 0.2 eV (polymer). These results are compared to previous data for 1D-polymerized C60 and photo-polymerized C60. The thermal expansivity of the 2D-polymer phase is as much as a factor of ten smaller than that of pure C60 and approaches values for diamond.
