Formate fixation in pyruvate by Escherichia coli.
The phosphoroclastic decomposition of pyruvic acid to acetic and formic acids by enzyme extracts of Escherichia coli has been an object of study ever since acetyl phosphate was tentatively identified as an intermediate of this reaction (1). The finding by Utter, Lipmann, and Werkman that isotopic carbon of formate was incorporated into the carboxyl group and that the carboxyl carbon of acetate ...
متن کاملSynthesis, Molecular Modeling, and Biological Evaluation of Novel Tetrahydro-β-Carboline Hydantoin and Tetrahydro-β-Carboline Thiohydantoin Derivatives as Phosphodiesterase 5 Inhibitors
Two series of fused tetrahydro-β-carboline hydantoin and tetrahydro-β-carboline thiohydantoin derivatives with a pendant 2,4-dimethoxyphenyl at position 5 were synthesized, and chiral carbons at positions 5 and 11a swing from R,R to R,S, S,R, and S,S. The prepared analogues were evaluated for their capacity to inhibit phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) isozyme. The R absolute configuration of C-5 in th...
متن کاملAn isotopic study of the conversion of anthranilic acid to indole.
Anthranilic acid and indole have been implicated as intermediates in the biosynthesis of tryptophan in several microorganisms (l-5). A mechanism of tryptophan synthesis from indole has been established, namely the pyridoxal phosphate-dependent coupling of indole and L-serine (6-9). Previous studies of the conversion of anthranilic acid to the indole ring of tryptophan have shown that the amino ...
متن کاملUtilization of carbon dioxide in the synthesis of proteins by Escherichia coli. II.
The question of the mechanisms involved in protein synthesis is one of the most important problems in biology. One facet that has recently become amenable to experimental approach is the process of synthesis or accumulation of constituent amino acids. In an earlier paper (1) we have reported the utilization of Cl402 in protein synthesis by Escherichia coli and the identification of labeled aspa...
متن کاملStudies on the biogenesis of the ring systems of nicotine.
Dawson et al. (1) have shown that the pyridine ring of nicotinic acid is utilized to form the pyridine ring of nicotine in sterile cultures of tobacco root. Since studies with animals and some microorganisms have demonstrated that tryptophan is converted to nicotinic acid (2)) tryptophan might reasonably be expected to yield the pyridine ring of nicotine. However, experiments have shown conclus...
