The puromycin-sensitive aminopeptidase (PSA) is thought to contribute to the degradation of enkephalins. Besides being the most abundant aminopeptidase in the brain, PSA is expressed in other organs as well. From a human fetal brain cDNA library, we have i ...
The formation of 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethyl-3(2H)-furanone (HDMF) and 2(or 5)-ethyl-4-hydroxy-5(or 2)-methyl-3(2H)-furanone (EHMF) from pentose sugars was studied in Maillard model systems. The amts. generated at 90 DegC for 1 h were detd. by isotope diln. ass ...
Anti- V.cholerae monoclonal IgA antibodies have been produced using a hybridoma cell line (Zac3) grown in RPMI medium contg. 10% Fetal calf serum (FCS) and a completely defined protein- free medium. The latter has been optimized with respect to amino acid, ...
Solid phase syntheses of the OF4949 derivs. I (R = H, CH2CONH2) and II (R1 = H, R2 = H, NH2; R1 = NH2, R2 = H) were performed via protection/deprotection of tyrosine side chains on a support, and SNAr macrocyclization reactions. [on SciFinder (R)] ...
Achieving practical biotechnol. processes for the prodn. of fine chems. requires optimization of metabolic fluxes. Attempts to alter the fluxes through a given pathway may be frustrated by compensatory changes in coupled pathways or by unexpected effects s ...
GAD65, the smaller isoform of the γ-aminobutyric acid-synthesizing enzyme glutamic acid decarboxylase is detected as an α/β doublet of distinct mobility on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) 65 is reversibly anchored ...

A fluorescent unnatural amino acid was introduced biosynthetically at known sites into the G protein-coupled neurokinin (tachykinin) NK2 receptor by suppression of UAG nonsense codons with the aid of a chem. misacylated synthetic tRNA specifically designed ...
Batch cultures of a mouse/mouse hybridoma cell line secreting a dimeric IgA were performed in combination with a membrane process for the continuous removal of ammonia from the culture medium. The latter involves hydrophobic porous membranes with an assocd ...
Vibrio and Aeromonas spp. secrete an unusual 35-kDa lipase that shares several properties with mammalian lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase. The Aeromonas hydrophila lipase contains two cysteine residues that form an intramolecular disulfide bridge. Here ...
Putative intersubunit electrostatic interactions between charged amino acids on the surfaces of the dimer interfaces of leucine zippers (g-e' ion pairs) have been implicated as determinants of dimerization specificity. To evaluate the importance of these i ...
