25. A DETERMINAÇÃO DOS PRODUTOS AVANÇADOS DE GLICAÇÃO (AGES) E DE LIPOXIDAÇÃO (ALES) EM ALIMENTOS E EM SISTEMAS BIOLÓGICOS: AVANÇOS, DESAFIOS E PERSPECTIVAS
Advanced glycation (AGEs) and lipoxidation (ALEs) products are formed through specific condensation reactions between nucleophiles (amino groups of free amino acids or their residues in peptides, aminophospholipids or proteins) and electrophiles (carbonyls of reducing sugars, oxidized lipids or others) generating well-defined sets of covalent adducts. The ε

26. Synthesis, Physicochemical and Photophysical Characterization of 4-(1-Pyrenyl)-butyl-α-D-mannopyranoside
Glycolipids are biomolecules composed of a lipid chain (lipophilic) and a monosaccharide or oligosaccharide as hydrophilic group. Their chemical structure and biological role make them undoubtedly good candidates for a large and continuously growing number of biotechnological applications. Mannose is a carbohydrate present on membrane glycolipids of a wide n

27. New insights into the structural characteristics of irradiated crotamine
Abstract Background: Since ionizing radiation has the potential to alter the molecular structure and affect the biologica properties of biomolecules, it has been successfully employed to attenuate animal toxins. The present study aimed to characterize the structural modifications on irradiated crotamine, a toxin from

28. Nano-Detoxification of Organophosphate Agents by PAMAM Derivatives
For the first time, the adsorption of pesticides such as azinphos-methyl and methamidophos by polyamidoamine (PAMAM) derivatives was studied. Amine groups of PAMAM (G4 and G5) were functionalized with different biomolecules such as folic acid, coumarine, arginine, lysine, and asparagine. Subsequently, the synthesized compounds were used to trap organophospha

29. Influence of salts on the coexistence curve and protein partitioning in nonionic aqueous two-phase micellar systems
Aqueous two-phase micellar systems (ATPMS) can be exploited in separation science for the extraction/purification of desired biomolecules. Prior to phase separation the surfactant solution reaches a cloud point temperature, which is influenced by the presence of electrolytes. In this work, we provide an investigation on the cloud point behavior of the nonion

30. DNA for nano-bio scale computation of chemical formalisms using Higher Order Logic (HOL) and analysis using an interdisciplinary approach
Bio-molecular computing, 'computations performed by bio-molecules', is already challenging traditional approaches to computation both theoretically and technologically. Often placed within the wider context of ´bio-inspired' or 'natural' or even 'unconventional' computing, the study of natural and artificial molecular computations is adding to our understan

31. Endophytic fungi from Myrcia guianensis at the Brazilian Amazon: distribution and bioactivity
Beneficial interactions between plants and microorganisms have been investigated under different ecological, physiological, biochemical, and genetic aspects. However, the systematic exploration of biomolecules with potential for biotechnological products from this interaction still is relatively scarce. Therefore, this study aimed the evaluation of the diver

32. A Importância da determinação analítica de intermediários reativos e de seus produtos de reações com biomacromoléculas: uma mini revisão
Metabolic reactive intermediates can react with biomolecules such as DNA and proteins to produce adducts. Recently, research has shown that such adducts can act as precursors of some chronic diseases (cancer, Parkinson's, immunologic system diseases, etc.), and their determination is important because they are biomarkers of undesirable health effects. These

33. Biomolecules produced in liquid-state fermentation by a marine-derived fungus, Penicillium roqueforti
Screening of biomass of a new marine-derived strain of Penicillium roqueforti, as produced by liquid-state fermentation, led to the identification of several volatile organic compounds active in the fatty acid pathway as well as fragments produced by their catabolism, terpenoids, and metabolites from the shikimic acid pathway. In addition, five non-volatile

34. Isolated biomolecules of pharmacological interest in hemostasis from Cerastes cerastes venom
Biomolecules from Cerastes cerastes venom have been purified and characterized. Two phospholipases isolated from Cerastes cerastes venom share 51% of homology. CC2-PLA2 exhibits antiplatelet activity that blocks coagulation. CCSV-MPase, a non-hemorrhagic Zn2+-metalloproteinase, significantly reduced the plasmatic fibrinogen level and hydrolyzes only its Bβ

35. The use of functionalized AFM tips as molecular sensors in the detection of pesticides
Atomic force spectroscopy, a technique derived from Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), allowed us to distinguish nonspecific and specific interactions between the acetolactate synthase enzyme (ALS) and anti-atrazine antibody biomolecules and the herbicides imazaquin, metsulfuron-methyl and atrazine. The presence of specific interactions increased the adhesion fo

36. A etimologia de biomoléculas com metais de transição como auxiliar na aprendizagem de Química Biológica
Numerous functional biomolecules are associated with metals, i.e. the metallobiomolecules; more specifically, some are dependent on transition metals required for several crucial biological roles. Nevertheless, their names can lead to ambiguous interpretations concerning the properties and performances of this group of biological molecules. Their etymology m
