Biomimetically relevant self-condensations of C5 units derived from lysine.

چکیده
In various conditions, dimerization of pentanedial-derived units gives rise to interesting skeletons, which are reminiscent of alkaloids known to be biosynthesized in Nature via lysine metabolism.

Stereochemical aspects of the biosynthetic routes leading to the pyrrolizidine and the quinolizidine alkaloids
The regiochemistry and the stereochemistry of the biosynthetic sequences leading into retronecine from ornithine and putrescine, and into lupinine, sparteine and lupanine from lysine and cadaverine, is revealed by tracer experiments with intramolecularly doubly 13C,15N—labelled and chirally 2H—labelled substrates. The labelling patterns within the biosynthetic products were established by means...
متن کاملThe initial conditions of star formation in the Ophiuchus main cloud: Kinematics of the protocluster condensations
Context. The earliest phases of clustered star formation and the origin of the stellar initial mass function (IMF) are currently much debated. In one school of thought the IMF of embedded clusters is entirely determined by turbulent fragmentation at the prestellar stage of star formation, while in a major alternative view it results from dynamical interactions and competitive accretion at the p...
متن کاملCancer cells release anaphylatoxin C5a from C5 by serine protease to enhance invasiveness.
Anaphylatoxin C5a indirectly fosters cancer cells through recruitment of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDS) for inhibiting antitumor CD8+ T cells and induction of neovascularization. We recently found activation of cancer cells by C5a directly via the C5a-receptor (C5aR; CD88) to enhance invasiveness. Thus, C5a possibly contributes to cancer progression rather than elimination. C5a generati...
متن کاملThe origin of the ectomesenchymal condensations which precede the development of the bony scleral ossicles in the eyes of embryonic chicks.
The origin of neural crest-derived ectomesenchymal condensations located subjacent to scleral papillae and the development of the more deeply situated scleral ossicles were investigated in scleral tissues explanted from the eyes of chick embryos at Hamburger & Hamilton (1952) stages 30-38 (6 1/2-12 days of incubation). Explants were pulse labelled with [3H]thymidine for 4h in vitro. Nuclear cou...
متن کاملComputational Study of the Radical Mediated Mechanism of the Formation of C8, C5, and C4 Guanine:Lysine Adducts in the Presence of the Benzophenone Photosensitizer.
The oxidation of guanine by triplet benzophenone in the presence of lysine has been shown to produce mono- and dilysine-substituted spiroiminodihydantion products, 8-Lys-Sp and 5,8-diLys-Sp. The potential energy surfaces for C8, C5, and C4 nucleophilic addition have been mapped out using the B3LYP/aug-cc-pVTZ//B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level of density functional theory with the SMD solvation model and...
