✦ Synopsis


A new linear gramicidin analog bearing a biotinyl group grafted on C-terminal part was designed to study ligand-receptor interactions. The C-terminal alcohol in the native peptide was first replaced by an amino group. Then the peptide was synthesized on a polystyrene resin functionalized by the 2-chlorotrityl chloride following a biotinylation performed in solution. This new N%-biotinyl-(EDA) 15 -Gramicidin A was reconstituted in planar lipid bilayers and exhibited channel activities similar to those of natural gramicidin, with unitary conductance value about 30 ps in 1 M KCl. Furthermore this ionophore activity was quenched by addition of streptavidin in the surrounding medium. Our system is an outstanding tool for monitoring ligand-receptor interactions and could be used for designing a new biosensor.

## SYNOPSIS A series of chiral poly(urea)s was synthesized by solution polyaddition. The polymers are characterized by NMR, FTIR, DSC, viscosimetry, and microanalysis. After deposition of the rhodium, the insoluble chiral polymers were used as catalysts in the reduction of acetophenone by hydrogen
