We describe here a simple preparation of a DNA-lipid complex that is soluble in organic media, and preparations of DNA-aligned thin films from the cast-stretching method and the Langmuir--Blodgett (LB) method. The DNA-lipid complex in which counter cations of phosphate anions are changed to cationic lipophilic amphiphiles was prepared by simply mixing aqueous solutions of DNA and cationic amphiphiles...
The repressor protein PhaR, which is a component of poly[(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate] granules, functions as a repressor of the gene expression of the phasin PhaP and of PhaR itself. We used a quartz crystal microbalance to investigate the binding behavior by which PhaR in Ralstonia eutropha H16 targets DNAs and amorphous poly[(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate] thin films. Binding rate constants, dissociation rate...
We investigated the interaction of GM3 lactone with influenza virus. The specific bindings of influenza virus and its hemagglutinin to GM3 lactone-containing mixed monolayers were studied by using a quartz-crystal microbalance. It has been known that gangliosides as receptors for influenza virus are also substrates for virus neuraminidase. GM3 lactone, however, was found to bind to influenza virus...
The effects of trivalent metal ions such as lanthanoid (La , Ce, Nd , Sm , Gd , Er , Yb , Lu ) and Al ions on the morphological change and proliferation of B16 melanoma cells in culture are discussed. These metal ions induced morphological transformations and decreased growth rates at doses of 1 mM. B16 melanoma cells treated with La , Ce , Nd , Sm , and Gd showed polyhedrical spreading. Elongation...
