High impact information on TERT

  • Modifications of the structure of MP-6 show that a tert-butyl group on the benzene ring, a methyl group attached to the pyridine nitrogen atom, para-substitution pattern in the pyridine ring, and the presence of a branched structure in the spacer moiety are important for the selective inhibition [1].
  • The tert-butyl glutamic ester initially used at P3 gave plasma unstable, insoluble compounds and was replaced with the better isostere, N-beta-neopentyl asparagine [2].
  • Addition of methyl, methoxy and benzyl groups to phenol did not diminish protective activity of the compound, but addition of one and particularly two tert-butyl groups greatly diminished activity [3].
  • The hydroxyl group in the hydroxycarboxylate residue was determined to be at the omega-position by comparison of the mass spectra of the tert-butyl-dimethylsilyl derivatives of these compounds with those of synthetic hydroxybutyrate-containing phosphatidylcholines [4].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of TERT

  • The method involved a simple extraction procedure using tert-butyl methyl ether followed by analysis on the biosensor with results obtained against a buffer calibration curve [5].
