摘要:
The present invention provides a method for specifically recovering a C-terminal peptide fragment, and a method for easily determining the sequence of a C-terminal peptide fragment, which is difficult to be determined by a conventional method, with the use of a mass spectrometer, in particular a method capable of de novo sequencing of a C-terminal peptide fragment. A method for selectively recovering a C-terminal peptide of a protein, comprising the steps of: in a cleavage product of a protein containing a C-terminal peptide fragment (A) having an α-amino group but not having an ε-amino group and the other peptide fragments (B) having an α-amino group and an ε-amino group, selectively modifying the α-amino groups to obtain a C-terminal peptide fragment modified (A′) and the other peptide fragments modified (B′); and separating the C-terminal peptide fragment modified (A′) from the modified cleavage product by allowing a carrier to hold the other peptide fragments modified (B′) via the ε-amino group. A method for determining the amino acid sequence of a C-terminal peptide of a protein, comprising the steps of: selectively recovering a C-terminal peptide of a protein by the above method; and determining the amino acid sequence by subjecting a recovered C-terminal peptide fragment to mass spectrometry measurement.

The invention provides a photochromic material characterized by an improvnt in balance of the substituents in the conventional furylfulgides and represented by the general formula: ##STR1## (wherein R represents an alkyl chain having 5 to 31 carbon atoms). According to this molecular structure, a mutually appropriate steric hindrance is induced between the isopropylidence group and the long-chain alkyl group to make the regio isomer unstable, thus preventing the regio isomer from being by-produced while also inhibiting any isomerization reaction from occuring in the synthesis of the fulgide. Further, a good balance of hydrophilic part and hydrophobic part is produced to facilitate formation of a Langmuir-Blodgett film.
摘要:
In a multi-car elevator, if two vertically adjacent cars among the cars are designated first and second cars, then: a zone that is a distance in which the second car can be stopped in response to an abnormality, and into which the first car is not permitted to enter is set as an exclusion zone of the second car; a position before which it is necessary for the first car to stop is set as a stopping limit position of the first car; and a plurality of threshold values that progressively detect the abnormal approach are set so as to enable the first car to decelerate and stop before the stopping limit position of the first car.
摘要:
An elevator system in which a controller monitors whether or not a speed of an ascending/descending body reaches a preset overspeed. At a time of maintenance work, a stopper is interposed between a buffer and the ascending/descending body to limit a lowered position of the ascending/descending body. A stopper detector detects installation of the stopper onto at least one of the buffer and the ascending/descending body. When the stopper is detected by the stopper detector, the controller lowers a set value of the overspeed.

A methacryloxy group- or acryloxy group-containing polyorganosiloxane in which a methacryloxy group or acryloxy group is bonded to a silicon atom in the polyorganosiloxane across a long-chain alkylene group or poly(alkyleneoxy)-long chain-alkylene group having 11 to 20 carbon atoms. A method of producing this methacryloxy group- or acryloxy group-containing polyorganosiloxane, in which a silicon-bonded hydrogen atom-containing polyorganosiloxane is addition reacted in the presence of a hydrosilylation reaction catalyst with a 1-alkenyl methacrylate or a 1-alkenyl acrylate or a 1-alkenyloxypolyalkylene glycol methacrylate or a 1-alkenyloxypolyalkylene glycol acrylate.

The present invention provides a method for effectively introducing sulfonic acid groups into the N-terminus of a protein or a peptide. The method comprises a modification step to react a N-terminus in a protein or peptide with a compound A which includes disulfide group and a cleavage step to cleave a disulfide bond of the disulfide group to convert into a sulfonic acid group. The present invention also provides a method of analyzing proteins or peptides easily and effectively on mass spectrometry and an intermediate that can be used to effectively derivatize proteins or peptides as sulfonic acid derivatives.
