Hydroxylation of 3-nitrotyrosine （3-NT） and 3-NT containing peptide Gly-nitroTyr-Gly in aqueous solution by hydroxyl radical were investigated with gamma irradiation. The structures of the hydroxylated products were confirmed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and ^1H NMR spectrometry. The reactivity of 3-nitrotyrosine has been investigated using density functional theory （DFT） calculation.
The spontaneous condensation of the amphiphilic N-（O,O-dihexadecyl）phosphorylalanine on the cast film was observed by in situ investigation of transmission infrared spectroscopy The particular orientation and ordered packing of the monomers within the multilayers of the cast film is concluded to attribute to the spontaneous condensation between the monomers.
Proteins are targets of reactive nitrogen species such as peroxynitrite and nitrogen dioxide. Among the variou...
