Cyclopentolate in treatment of sarin miosis [PDF]

British Journal of Pharmacology, 1973
Summary . Six young male volunteers were exposed to sarin vapour (isopropyl methyl phosphonofluoridate) at a concentration of 0·5 mg/m3 for 30 min (concentration time (Ct) 15 (mg min)/m3). . The resulting clinical syndrome was treated by instilling 0·06 ml of a 1% solution of cyclopentolate into the conjunctival sac. .

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...
