The phrase "as is for nitration" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in a scientific or chemical context when referring to a specific condition or state of a substance that is suitable for the nitration process.
Example: "The compound can be used as is for nitration without any further modifications."
Alternatives: "in its current state for nitration" or "as it stands for nitration."
Our hypothesis was that the levels of NN in patients with SLE would be affected both by the overall level of nitration and by the level of serum nucleosomes present as a target for nitration.
First the phenolic hydroxyl group of starting acetovanillone 1 was benzyl-protected for nitration and then deprotected using TFA.
A characteristic reaction of ONOO− is the nitration of protein-bound tyrosine residues to produce 3-nitrotyrosine, and the later has been used extensively as a footprint for ONOO−in vivo [ 21, 22].
A characteristic reaction of ONOO− is the nitration of protein-bound tyrosine residues to produce nitrotyrosine, and the production of nitrotyrosine has been used extensively as a footprint for ONOO− in vivo.
A defined functional role for these bacterial NOS oxygenase-like proteins, which are often termed bacterial NOS, is the nitration of tryptophan [ 19].
As protein tyrosine nitration is a post-translational modification of many proteins that can be accounted for by several mechanisms that is, formation of ONOO− or other reactive nitrogen species (NO2, NO2Cl) (Ischiropoulos, 1998; Wink and Mitchell, 1998), it was important to design a protocol to distinguish between these different processes.
One widely studied pathway for nitration is the production of the RNS peroxynitrite (ONOO−) (Fig. 6, pathway 1) (132).
Some of these modifications, such as oxidation and nitration, are obviously induced by the inflammatory milieu that is a component of AD [ 3].
Hence, a maximum conversion of about 30% is achievable for the nitration of nitrotoluene to dinitrotoluene in one reaction cycle.
The same is true for tyrosine nitration since the overall abundance of hydrophobic and aromatic residues in IDPs is low.
