Cyclosporins--new analogues by precursor directed biosynthesis.
Cyclosporin A (ciclosporin), a potent and clinically important immunosuppressive drug (Sandimmun), represents the main component of a group of over 25 closely related, cyclic undecapeptides produced by the fungus Tolypocladium inflatum. By feeding experiments using DL-alpha-allylglycine as precursor, specific incorporation in position 2 was attained leading to [Allylgly2]cyclosporin A. Exogenou...
متن کاملMammalian metabolism of glutaric acid.
Rat liver mitochondria metabolize glutarate at a very slow rate as compared with glutaryl coenzyme A. The stimulatory effect of citric acid cycle intermediates, NAD, and coenzyme A on glutarate metabolism was interpreted as a manifestation of their involvement in the activation of glutarate by a thiol transferase with succinyl-Cob as the coenzyme A donor. Glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase, which catal...
متن کاملBiotin biosynthetic enzymes and the metabolic control of biotin biosynthesis
Biotin is a vital cofactor for many enzymes that facilitate carboxylation, decarboxylation, and transcarboxylation reactions. The biotin biosynthetic network has been well characterized in many microorganisms including E.coli (Eisenberg, 1973), but only recently have the genetic and biochemical components of the Arabidopsis biotin biosynthetic enzymes been discovered. Previous studies (Muralla ...
متن کاملA Biotin Biosynthesis Gene Restricted to Helicobacter.
In most bacteria the last step in synthesis of the pimelate moiety of biotin is cleavage of the ester bond of pimeloyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) methyl ester. The paradigm cleavage enzyme is Escherichia coli BioH which together with the BioC methyltransferase allows synthesis of the pimelate moiety by a modified fatty acid biosynthetic pathway. Analyses of the extant bacterial genomes showed t...
متن کاملA new precursor for preparation of magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles
An anionic Fe(II) complex, (BMIM)4[Fe(CN)6] (where BMIM is 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium), was synthesized in ionic liquid [BMIM][PF6] under reflux condition. The complex was characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods. The magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles were prepared by the hydrothermal and solvothermal (in ionic liquid [BMIM][PF6]) methods from (BMIM)4[Fe(CN)6] as a precursor...
