Inhibits mitosis and reversibly arrests HeLa cells in G2.
p-Fluoro-DL-phenylalanine (pFPhe), a toxic antimetabolite, is a racemic mixture of a substituted (halogenated) benzoyl D and L phenylalanine useful as a selection marker for wine yeast transformation and with potential use in endomorphin, antiviral, and antimicrobial drug development. Phenylalanine analogue, rho-fluorophenylalanine (pFPhe) is also used to induce apoptosis.
Prephenate dehydratase (PDT), chorismate mutase (CM) and 3-deoxy-D-arabino-7-heptulosonate 7-phosphate (DAHP) synthase are key regulatory enzymes in aromatic amino acid biosynthesis in the actinomycete Amycolatopsis methanolica. Deregulated, feedback-control-resistant mutants were isolated by incubation of A. methanolica on glucose mineral agar containing
Applied and environmental microbiology, 70(12), 7018-7023 (2004-12-03)
Genetic improvement of industrial yeast strains is restricted by the availability of selectable transformation markers. Antibiotic resistance markers have to be avoided for public health reasons, while auxotrophy markers are generally not useful for wine yeast strain transformation because most
Insect biochemistry and molecular biology, 105, 60-68 (2019-01-21)
The biochemical and molecular mechanisms underlying insect cold acclimation prior to cold stress are relatively well explored, but the mechanisms linked to recovery and repair after cold stress have received much less attention. Here we focus on recovery from cold
Biochemical and biophysical research communications, 377(1), 280-285 (2008-10-11)
Phenylalanine analog, rho-fluorophenylalanine (pFPhe)-mediated cytotoxicity and several apoptotic events including mitochondrial cytochrome c release, activation of caspase-9, -3, and -8, Bid cleavage, degradation of PARP and PLCgamma-1, and DNA fragmentation were more significant in p56(lck)-deficient Jurkat T cells (JCaM1.6) than
N-Acylated derivatives of 8-(6-aminohexyl) amino-adenosine-5 '-phosphate were prepared and studied with regard to their effect on DNA synthesis by the Moloney leukemia virus reverse transcriptase. N-palmitoyl and N-nicotinyl derivatives and bis-8-(6-aminohexyl) amino-5'-AMP inhibited the enzyme partially using poly (rA).oligo d(pT)(16-18)
