Disease relevance of Octaethyleneglycol monododecyl ether

• Cyanobacterial pilin was extracted from Synechococcus 6301 membranes using a detergent mixture comprising 1% Triton X-100, 1% Thesit and 0.5% dodecyl beta-D-maltoside [1].

High impact information on Octaethyleneglycol monododecyl ether

• The glucosyltransferase of M. luteus, which participates in the biosynthesis of teichuronic acid, was solubilized from cytoplasmic membrane fragments by extraction with buffer solutions containing the detergents Thesit (dodecyl alcohol polyoxyethylene ether; 1 mg/ml) and 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate (0.5 mg/ml) [2].
• The properties of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase have been studied after modification of the ATP high affinity binding site with fluorescein isothiocyanate, both in the membranous state and after solubilization with the nonionic detergent, octaethyleneglycol monododecyl ether [3].
• When LDM fractions were solubilized with Thesit (octaethylene glycol dodecyl ether) or Triton X-100, approximately 40% of the alpha-SNAP was colocalized with NSF on glycerol gradients in large (approximately 20S), ATP-sensitive complexes [4].
• The catalytic alpha-subunit of rat hepatic (Na+, K+)-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) has been isolated by immunoaffinity chromatography from microsomes solubilized in n-dodecyl octaethylene glycol monoether [5].
• In order to allow the lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis to proceed efficiently, lipid extracts or eluates from silica scrapings were mixed with the detergent Thesit [dodecylpoly(ethylene glycol ether)], prior to drying [6].

Anatomical context of Octaethyleneglycol monododecyl ether

• A soluble preparation of galactosyltransferase-I, extracted from bovine articular cartilage using Thesit, eluted from a Superose-6 column, with a molecular mass of about 55 kDa [7].
• The properties of the rectal gland (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.8) solubilized in octaethyleneglycol dodecylmonoether ( C12E8 ) have been investigated [8].

Associations of Octaethyleneglycol monododecyl ether with other chemical compounds

• Thus, hydrophobic detergents such as Tritons (with critical micelle concentrations similar to CHAPS) and Thesit (structurally similar to Lubrol) extracted the most protein, but relatively little lipid (ratios of less than 0.2) and very little active 5-HT receptor [9].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Octaethyleneglycol monododecyl ether

• The enzyme is extracted from the enriched membrane fraction using the nonionic detergent Thesit (polyoxyethylene(9)dodecyl ether) in a monodisperse form and then purified by a combination of anion-exchange, perfusion, and gel filtration chromatography [10].
