Conformation and aggregation of melittin: dependence on pH and concentration.
- J. Bello, H. R. Bello, E. Granados
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Biochemistry
- 2 February 1982
Melittin, a 26-residue peptide from bee venom, is transformed from a largely random to a largely alpha-helical conformation at elevated pH. At 3 x 10(-5) M melittin, circular dichroism spectra show a… Expand
Poly ICL-CM dextran: an interferon inducer of reduced toxicity.

- Chemistry, Medicine
- Journal of interferon research
- 1984
We have prepared soluble complexes of poly ICL-CM dextran that are as effective interferon IFN inducers, in mice and in rhesus monkeys, as poly ICLC. Toxicity testing was carried out in mice and,… Expand
Interactions of poly(N epsilon, N epsilon, N epsilon-trimethyllysine) and poly(N delta, N delta, N delta-trimethylornithine) with polynucleotides: salt dissociation and thermal denaturation.

The interaction of poly(N epsilon, N epsilon, N epsilon-trimethyl-L-lysine) ([Lys(Me3)]n) and poly(N delta, N delta, N delta-trimethyl-L-ornithine) ([Orn(Me3)]n) with polynucleotides was studied by… Expand
Human serum digests poly(rI) X poly(rC) differently from other mammalian sera.

- Chemistry, Medicine
- Journal of interferon research
- 1984
Using a new spectrophotometric assay, we found that human serum digests predominately (rC)n of (rI)n X (rC)n, in agreement with results of Nordlund et al. (Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. Med., 1970, 133,… Expand
Interactions of poly (N epsilon , N epsilon , N epsilon ,-trimethyllysine) and poly(lysine) with polynucleotides: circular dichroism and A-T sequence selectivity.

- Biochemistry
- 4 August 1981
Complexes of (Lys) and [Lys(Me3)]n with natural and synthetic DNAs have been studied by CD as a function of ionic strength. In dilute EDTA, (Lys)n and [Lys(Me3)]n produce the same distortions to the… Expand
Alkylated poly(amino acids). I. Conformational properties of poly(Nε‐trimethyl‐L‐lysine) and poly(Nδ‐trimethyl‐L‐ornithine)
- E. Granados, J. Bello
- Chemistry
- 1 June 1979
Poly(Nε‐trimethyl‐L‐lysine), [Lys(Me3)]n, and poly(Nδ‐trimethyl‐L‐ornithine), [Orn(Me3)]n, in sodium dodecylsulfate do not assume the β‐structure or α‐helix, respectively, of their parent polymers.… Expand
Methylated poly(L-lysine): conformational effects and interactions with polynucleotides.

- Journal of biomolecular structure & dynamics
- 1 February 1985
Methylated lysine, arginine and histidine residues are found in a number of proteins (for example, histones, non-histone chromosomal proteins, ribosomal proteins, calmodulin, cytochrome C, etc.). We… Expand
Poly ICLC induces anti-IC antibodies in mice and rabbits.
- E. Granados, T. Alm, J. O'Malley, M. McGarry, J. Bello
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Journal of interferon research
- 1984
Poly ICLC is an interferon (IFN) inducer and antiviral, antitumor, radioprotective, and immunoregulatory agent. We show that administration of poly ICLC to mice and rabbits also results in the… Expand

Publisher Summary This chapter presents preparation and assay method of poly ICL-CM dextran, an interferon inducer of reduced toxicity. This complex also has activity as an immunological adjuvant,… Expand
Purification of carboxymethylcellulose decreases toxicity of poly ICLC in mice.
- J. Bello, J. O'Malley, E. Granados
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Journal of interferon research
- 1985
The interferon inducer poly ICLC has toxic side effects; the carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) component is a possible source of this toxicity. We have purified CMC by ethanol extraction, and found that… Expand
