    Acid dissociation constant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Page 1 Help us provide free content to the world by donating today ! Acid dissociation constant From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia An acid dissociation constant (aka acidity constant, acid-ionization constant) is an equilibrium constant for the dissociation of an acid. It is denoted by Ka. For an equilibrium between a generic acid, HA, and − its conjugate base, A , The weak acid acetic acid donates a proton to water in an equilibrium reaction to give the acetate ion and − + HA A + H the hydronium ion. Key: Hydrogen is white, oxygen is red, carbon is gray. Lines are chemical bonds. K is defined, subject to certain conditions, as a where [HA], [A−] and [H+] are equilibrium concentrations of the reactants. The term acid dissociation constant is also used for pKa, which is equal to −log 10 Ka. The term pKb is used in relation to bases, though pKb has faded from modern use due to the easy relationship available between the strength of an acid and the strength of its conjugate base. Though discussions of this topic typically assume water as the solvent, particularly at introductory levels, the Brønsted–Lowry acid-base theory is versatile enough that acidic behavior can now be characterized even in non-aqueous solutions. The value of pK indicates the strength of an acid: the larger the value the weaker the acid. In aqueous a solution, simple acids are partially dissociated to an appreciable extent in in the pH range pK ± 2. The a actual extent of the dissociation can be calculated if the acid concentration and pH are known.

  • Determination of Binding Constant and Stoichiometry for Antibody-Antigen Interaction with Surface Plasmon Resonance
    Current Proteomics, 2006, 3, 271-282 271 Determination of Binding Constant and Stoichiometry for Antibody-Antigen Interaction with Surface Plasmon Resonance Shiming Lin1,3,*, Adam Shih-Yuan Lee2, Chih-Chen Lin2 and Chih-Kung Lee3 1Centre for Optoelectronic Biomedicine, National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan; 2Department of Chemistry, Tamkang Univer- sity, Tamsui, Taiwan and 3Institute of Applied Mechanics, National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan Abstract: A surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor technology has recently been applied biochemically and clinically to the study of immunologic recognition and the evaluation of binding parameters for various interactions between antibodies (Abs) and antigens (Ags) at liquid-solid interface. The simple interaction between hapten and Ab fragment, e.g., variable single-chain fragment and antigen- binding fragment, can be described sufficiently by a 1:1 stoichiometry in SPR. However, the determination of the binding constant of an anti-protein Ab is usually complicated by the multivalence of the protein Ag. The SPR-based method enables direct determination of binding constants for a variety of specific Ab-Ag interactions in real-time. It also allows estimation of the binding stoichiometry and binding ratio for low-, intermediate-, and high-affinity Ab-Ag interaction systems. The present review is designed to indicate the theo- retical background of SPR-based biosensor technology as well as to present the great variety of measurement modes of interaction kinet- ics that can be performed with these techniques. Quantitative aspects of the Ab-Ag interaction kinetics are reviewed, focusing especially on mono- and multi-valent Ab-Ag interaction modes using a SPR biosensor. Four model binding systems developed recently for use with SPR biosenser are described with principles and examples: (i) one to one interaction mode, (ii) nonequivalent two-site interaction mode, (iii) multiple equivalent-site interaction mode and (iv) multisite interaction mode.

Gray Abstract The dianionic oxo ligand occupies a very special place in coordination chemistry, owing to its ability to donate p electrons to stabilize high oxidation states of metals. The ligand field theory of multiple bonding in oxo-metal ions, which was formulated in Copenhagen 50 years ago, predicts that there must be an “oxo wall” between Fe–Ru–Os and Co–Rh–Ir in the periodic table. In this tribute to Carl Ballhausen, we review this early work as well as new developments in the field. In particular, we discuss the electronic structures of beyond-the-wall (groups 9 and 10) complexes containing metals multiply bonded to O- and N-donor ligands.

Conclusions 183 References 185 Abstract The ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities (AAA+) is a large superfamily of proteins involved in a broad array of biological processes. Many members of this family require nucleotide binding to assemble into their final active hexameric form. We have been studying two example members, Escherichia coli ClpA and ClpB. These two enzymes are active as hexameric rings that both require nucleotide binding for assem- bly. Our studies have shown that they both reside in a monomer, dimer, tetramer, and hexamer equilibrium, and this equilibrium is thermodynamically linked to nucleotide binding. Moreover, we are finding that the kinetics of the assembly reaction are very different for the two enzymes. Here, we present our strategy for determining the self-association constants in the absence of nucleotide to set the stage for the analysis of nucleotide binding from other experimental approaches including analytical ultracentrifugation. 1. INTRODUCTION Determining a binding constant for a protein–ligand interaction is quite possibly one of the most common experiments in biophysics.

  • Uranium and Vanadium Binding Studies for the Selective Extraction of Uranium from Seawater
    Uranium and vanadium binding studies for the selective extraction of uranium from seawater By Bernard Frederick Parker A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor John Arnold, Chair Professor T. Don Tilley Professor Alexander Katz Summer 2017 1 Abstract Uranium and vanadium binding studies for the selective extraction of uranium from seawater by Bernard Frederick Parker Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry University of California, Berkeley Professor John Arnold, Chair Chapter 1 An introduction to the uranium from seawater project. Chapter 2 A non-oxo V(V) complex with glutaroimide-dioxime (H3L), a ligand for recovering uranium from seawater, was synthesized from aqueous solution as Na[V(L)2]2H2O, and the structure determined by x-ray diffraction. It is the first non-oxo V(V) complex that has been directly synthesized in and crystallized from aqueous solution. The distorted octahedral structure contains two fully deprotonated ligands (L3-) coordinating to V5+, each in a tridentate mode. Using 17O-labelled vanadate, concurrent 17O/51V/1H/13C NMR, in conjunction with ESI-MS, unprecedentedly demonstrated the stepwise displacement of the oxo V=O bonds by glutaroimide-dioxime and verified the existence of the “bare” V5+/glutaroimide-dioxime - complex, [V(L)2] , in aqueous solution. In addition, the crystal structure of an intermediate 1:1 - V(V)/glutaroimide-dioxime complex, [VO2(HL)] , in which the oxo bonds of vanadate are only partially displaced, corroborates the observations by NMR and ESI-MS.
