The state of the single tryptophyl of the black-eyed pea trypsin and chymotrypsin inhibitor by charge transfer with N-methylnicotinamide chloride. 1983

C de Oliveira Martin, and M M Ventura

The single tryptophan residue of the black-eyed pea trypsin and chymotrypsin inhibitor was found to be sufficiently exposed to bind N-methylnicotinamide chloride and give rise to a characteristic charge-transfer absorption spectrum. At pH 7.0, ionic strength of 1M and 25 degrees C, an apparent association constant K = 3.19 +/- 0.07 M-1 and a molar extinction coefficient epsilon = 1240 +/- 18 M-1 cm-1 (at 350 nm) were obtained for the charge-transfer complex. The values of these parameters were also estimated for other wavelengths over the 330-420 nm range. The association constant showed a negligible dependence on the wavelength.

D009536 Niacinamide An important compound functioning as a component of the coenzyme NAD. Its primary significance is in the prevention and/or cure of blacktongue and PELLAGRA. Most animals cannot manufacture this compound in amounts sufficient to prevent nutritional deficiency and it therefore must be supplemented through dietary intake.

D011189 Potassium Chloride A white crystal or crystalline powder used in BUFFERS; FERTILIZERS; and EXPLOSIVES. It can be used to replenish ELECTROLYTES and restore WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE in treating HYPOKALEMIA. Slow-K,Chloride, Potassium
D002621 Chemistry A basic science concerned with the composition, structure, and properties of matter; and the reactions that occur between substances and the associated energy exchange.
D002918 Chymotrypsin A serine endopeptidase secreted by the pancreas as its zymogen, CHYMOTRYPSINOGEN and carried in the pancreatic juice to the duodenum where it is activated by TRYPSIN. It selectively cleaves aromatic amino acids on the carboxyl side. Alpha-Chymotrypsin Choay,Alphacutanée,Avazyme
D012639 Seeds The encapsulated embryos of flowering plants. They are used as is or for animal feed because of the high content of concentrated nutrients like starches, proteins, and fats. Rapeseed, cottonseed, and sunflower seed are also produced for the oils (fats) they yield.

D013329 Structure-Activity Relationship The relationship between the chemical structure of a compound and its biological or pharmacological activity. Compounds are often classed together because they have structural characteristics in common including shape, size, stereochemical arrangement, and distribution of functional groups.

D014361 Trypsin Inhibitors Serine proteinase inhibitors which inhibit trypsin. They may be endogenous or exogenous compounds. Trypsin Inhibitor,Inhibitor, Trypsin,Inhibitors, Trypsin
D014364 Tryptophan An essential amino acid that is necessary for normal growth in infants and for NITROGEN balance in adults. It is a precursor of INDOLE ALKALOIDS in plants. It is a precursor of SEROTONIN (hence its use as an antidepressant and sleep aid). It can be a precursor to NIACIN, albeit inefficiently, in mammals.
