We have investigated the polarized IR spectra of the hydrogen bond system in crystals of trans-styrylacetic acid C(6)H(5)CHCHCH(2)COOH, and also in crystals of the following three deuterium isotopomers of the compound: C(6)H(5)CHCHCH(2)COOD, C(6)H(5)CHCHCD(2)COOH and C(6)H(5)CHCHCD(2)COOD. The spectra were measured at

Formation of mature active neuropeptides such as substance P (SP) from their glycine extended precursors entails alpha-amidation of peptide precursors by the sequential enzymatic action of peptidylglycine alpha-monooxygenase (PAM) and peptidylamidoglycolate lyase (PGL). We reported that these two enzymes that

Peptidylglycine-alpha-hydroxylating monooxygenase (PHM; EC 1.14.17. 3) catalyzes the first and rate-limiting reaction in the two-step process that alpha-amidates neural and endocrine peptides. The substrate analog 4-phenyl-3-butenoic acid (PBA) was shown in vitro to selectively inhibit PHM without affecting the activity
