Here we present the readily accessible amino acid 4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzyl-L-cysteine (DNC), as an ultra-low molecular weight gelator (MW = 316 g/mol). Sonication of DNC in water or organic solvents as well...

Abstract Florunner peanut seeds contained five trypsin isoinhibitors. Amino acid profiles of the trypsin inhibitors fraction showed high levels of aspartic acid, half-cystine and serine and low levels of histidine and tyrosine. The molecular weight of the inhibitor was 8.3 KDa. The presence of multiforms of this inhibitor, its low molecular weight and the high amount of half-cystine indicate that peanut trypsin inhibitor is of the Bowman-Birk type.

Pure enamel was prepared using an original microdissection technic. Protein concentration was 375 μg per gram of enamel. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed a single fast-migrating zone containing a thin double band. Ultracentrifugation studies suggested that the proteins were of low molecular weight or of weak density. Absorption spectra showed a strong absorbance at 260nm. Amino acid analyses yielded a composition of 25% Gly, 13.5% Glu, 11% Ser, 11% Pro, 2% Cys and 2% Hyp. A glucidic content of 15% was estimated and glucose, galactose, mannose and fucose were identified. The organic matrix of enamel seemed to be constituted of two major glycoproteins probably fibrous but different from keratin.

A low molecular weight gelator (LMWG) containing a diaminomalenonitrile functional group 1 forms supramolecular gels from DMF–H2O and 1,2-dichlorobenzene. The DMF/H2O gel is multi-analyte responsive (Hg2+, Cu2+ and hydrazine) with practical applications in dye adsorption from water.

Here, π-conjugated compounds based on pteridine derivatives were synthesized and their self-assembling behaviors in a variety of organic solvents and piezofluorochromism were studied.
