Deprotonation of zinc(II)-water and zinc(II)-alcohol and nucleophilicity of the resultant zinc(II) hydroxide and zinc(II) alkoxide in double-functionalized complexes: theoretical studies on models for hydrolytic zinc enzymes.

The factors governing the deprotonation ability of zinc(II)-water and zinc(II)-alcohol and nucleophilicity of the resultant zinc(II) hydroxide and zinc(II) alkoxide as complex models for zinc enzymes have been investigated through Hartree-Fock and density-functional theory methods with the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. Our calculations showed that in these double-functionalized complexes (i.e.

Isolation of GIF from porcine brain and studies of its zinc transfer kinetics with apo-carbonic anhydrase.

Neuronal growth inhibitory factor (GIF) of porcine brain, was isolated and purified by a similar procedure which was used on the isolation of human and bovine GIF. The native porcine protein with stoichiometry of 4Cu+, 3Zn2+ was obtained for the first time. The kinetics of zinc transfer from Cu4Zn3MT-3 to apo-carbonic anhydrase were studied, and zinc transfer rate constants and thermodynamic parameters were obtained.

Fourier transform IR and Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy studies of metallothionein-III: amide I band assignments and secondary structural comparison with metallothioneins-I and -II.

The secondary structures of porcine brain Cu(4)Zn(3)-metallothionein (MT)-III and Cd(5)Zn(2)MT-I, Cd(5)Zn(2)MT-II, and Zn(7)MT-I from rabbit livers in the solid state are investigated by Fourier transform IR spectroscopy (FTIR) and Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy (FT-Raman).
