Calorimetric measurements are expected to provide useful data regarding the relative stability of α- versus β-amino acid isomers, which, in turn, may help us to understand why nature chose α- instead of β-amino acids for the formation of the biomolecules

A series of highly potent substrate-analogue factor Xa inhibitors containing D-homophenylalanine analogues as the P3 residue has been identified by systematic optimization of a previously described inhibitor structure. An initial lead, benzylsulfonyl-D-hPhe-Gly-4-amidinobenzylamide (3), inhibits fXa with an inhibition constant of

Calcium-dependent protein kinases (CPKs) play important roles in multiple signal transduction pathways but the precise role of individual CPK is largely unknown. We isolated two cDNAs encoding two CPK isoforms (Cicer arietinum CPKs-CaCPK1 and CaCPK2) of chickpea. Their expression in
