Electrospray ionization spectra of potential cyanide-containing gold-drug metabolites revealed additional, weak, unanticipated peaks at approximately twice the mass of the gold(I) and gold(III) cyanide complexes. The exact masses correspond to proton-linked bimetallic complexes, [H[Au(CN)(m)](2)](-), (m=2,4). Further investigation revealed a total

There is considerable evidence that the anti-rheumatic gold complexes are activated by their conversion to aurocyanide. In order to understand the mechanism of production of aurocyanide, we investigated the involvement of myeloperoxidase in the reaction. This haem enzyme of neutrophils

Quaternary ammonium salt has strong affinity with gold in cyanide solutions, but it is not readily stripped. Stripping with acidic thiourea solutions and air sparging shows promise. There are some reports on the process of thiourea stripping, but little about

Chloride permeation through the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl- channel is blocked by a broad range of anions that bind tightly within the pore. Here we show that the divalent anion Pt(NO2)42- acts as an impermeant voltage-dependent blocker

Lyotropic anions with low free energy of hydration show both high permeability and tight binding in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl(-) channel pore. However, the molecular bases of anion selectivity and anion binding within the CFTR pore
