The conformational properties of polygamain and morelensin, two aryltetralin lignan lactones, have been investigated in both the gas-phase and chloroform solution using DFT calculations at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level. Results indicate that the conformation of polygamain is very rigid. Thus, the

Modifying FTY720, an immunosuppressant modulator, led to a new series of well phosphorylated tetralin analogs as potent S1P1 receptor agonists. The stereochemistry effect of tetralin ring was probed, and (-)-(R)-2-amino-2-((S)-6-octyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)propan-1-ol was identified as a good SphK2 substrate and potent S1P1

The tetralin biodegradation pathway in Rhodococcus sp. strain TFB, a Gram-positive bacterium resistant to genetic manipulation, was characterized using a proteomic approach. Relative protein expression in cell free extracts from tetralin- and glucose-grown cells was compared using the 2D-DIGE technique.

Glucose catabolite repression of tetralin catabolic genes in Rhodococcus sp. strain TFB was shown to be exerted by a protein homologous to transcriptional regulators of the cyclic AMP receptor (CRP)-FNR family. The protein was detected bound to putative CRP-like boxes

Previous genetic studies in Sphingomonas macrogolitabida strain TFA have established that expression of genes involved in tetralin biodegradation (thn genes) requires the function of the LysR type activator ThnR and also ThnY. Sequence comparison indicated that ThnY is homologous to
