  • Studies on the interaction of polylysine with deoxyribonucleic acid

    Creator:
    McKenzie, Raymond Leslie
    Abstract:
    The interaction of polylysine with DNA may be divided into two separate phenomena: the primary interaction involved in formation of a well-defined complex, and secondary interactions leading to aggregation of these complexes. Most studies on the interaction of polylysine with DNA have used techniques which measure properties of the aggregated...

  • The interaction of polylysine with DNA as studied by polarization of flurescence

    Creator:
    Evett, Jay Fredrick
    Abstract:
    A fluorescent dye, 1-dimethylaminonaphthalene-5-sulfonyl chloride (dansyl chloride), was covalently bonded to polylysine. The dansyl tagged polylysine was complexed to DNA by gradient dialysis. The polarization and intensity of fluorescence of the dansyl and the turbidity of the complex were measured as a function of salt concentration for a variety of...

  • Towards a Better Understanding of How the Dietary Supplement Xanthohumol Can Improve Health

    Creator:
    Logan, Isabelle E.
    Abstract:
    Xanthohumol, a prenylated flavonoid found in hops and beer, possesses a long-standing reputation to improve health. Xanthohumol’s cytotoxicity to a wide variety of cancer cell lines is well-established. Herein we provide further insight into the cytotoxicity of not only xanthohumol, but also its non-estrogenic derivatives, to a number of colonic...
