  2. Nitrobenzoic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrobenzoic_acid

    2-Nitrobenzoic acid is prepared by oxidation of 2-nitrotoluene. 3-Nitrobenzoic acid is a precursor to 3-aminobenzoic acid, which in turn is used to prepare some dyes. It can be prepared by nitration of benzoic acid. It also can be prepared by treating benzaldehyde under nitration conditions, a process that initially converts the aldehyde to the ...

  3. Nitration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitration

    The phrase ipso nitration was first used by Perrin and Skinner in 1971, in an investigation into chloroanisole nitration. [18] In one protocol, 4-chloro- n -butylbenzene is reacted with sodium nitrite in t -butanol in the presence of 0.5 mol% Pd 2 (dba) 3 , a biarylphosphine ligand and a phase-transfer catalyst to provide 4-nitro- n -butylbenzene.

  4. Benzoic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzoic_acid

    Benzoic acid and its salts are used as food preservatives, represented by the E numbers E210, E211, E212, and E213. Benzoic acid inhibits the growth of mold, yeast [23] and some bacteria. It is either added directly or created from reactions with its sodium, potassium, or calcium salt. The mechanism starts with the absorption of benzoic acid ...

  5. Glucose uptake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose_uptake

    Glucose transporters are classified into three groups based on sequence similarity, with a total of 14 members.All GLUT proteins share a common structure: 12 transmembrane segments, a single N-linked glycosylation site, a large central cytoplasmic linker, and both N- and C-termini located in the cytoplasm. [4]

  6. Glycosyltransferase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycosyltransferase

    Most glycosyltransferase enzymes form one of two folds: GT-A or GT-B. Glycosyltransferases (GTFs, Gtfs) are enzymes that establish natural glycosidic linkages.They catalyze the transfer of saccharide moieties from an activated nucleotide sugar (also known as the "glycosyl donor") to a nucleophilic glycosyl acceptor molecule, the nucleophile of which can be oxygen- carbon-, nitrogen-, or sulfur ...

  7. N-linked glycosylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N-linked_glycosylation

    The different types of lipid-linked oligosaccharide (LLO) precursor produced in different organisms.. N-linked glycosylation is the attachment of an oligosaccharide, a carbohydrate consisting of several sugar molecules, sometimes also referred to as glycan, to a nitrogen atom (the amide nitrogen of an asparagine (Asn) residue of a protein), in a process called N-glycosylation, studied in ...

  8. Chemical glycosylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_glycosylation

    A chemical glycosylation reaction involves the coupling of a glycosyl donor, to a glycosyl acceptor forming a glycoside. [1] [2] [3] If both the donor and acceptor are sugars, then the product is an oligosaccharide.

  9. Glycation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycation

    The term DNA glycation applies to DNA damage induced by reactive carbonyls (principally methylglyoxal and glyoxal) that are present in cells as by-products of sugar metabolism. [13] Glycation of DNA can cause mutation, breaks in DNA and cytotoxicity. [13] Guanine in DNA is the base most susceptible to glycation. Glycated DNA, as a form of ...
