| Abstract | Many furan-containing compounds are known to be toxic and/or carcinogenic. Metabolic activation of toxic furans to cis-enediones (cis-enedials or γ-ketoenals) is generally considered as the initial step towards the processes of their toxicities. Sequential modification of key proteins by the electrophilic reactive intermediates is suggested to be an important mechanism of the toxic actions. In the present study, we developed a novel and simple analytical platform to detect protein modification resulting from metabolic activation of model compound 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF). 4-Bromobenzylamine and 4-bromobenzylmercaptan were employed to trap protein adductions at cysteine and lysine residues, respectively. The resulting protein samples were proteolytically digested by chymotrypsin and Pronase E, followed by LC-MS/MS analysis. Modifications of cysteine and lysine residues of proteins were observed in microsomal incubations and animals after exposure to DMF. In conclusion, the approach established has been proven highly selective and reliable. This advance allows us not only to detect the protein adductions but also to define the structural identities of amino acid residues modified. This technique provides a unique platform to assess protein modifications arising from metabolic activation of potentially harmful furan-containing compounds. Hepatic protein adductions were found to be proportional to the hepatotoxicity of DMF. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
