BacD is an ATP-dependent dipeptide ligase responsible for the biosynthesis of L-alanyl-L-anticapsin, a precursor of an antibiotic produced by Bacillus spp. In contrast to the well-studied and phylogenetically related D-alanine: D-alanine ligase (Ddl), BacD synthesizes dipeptides using L-amino acids as

DFT methods were employed to compute the (13)C NMR chemical shift tensor (CST) parameters for crystals of YAF peptides (Tyr-Ala-Phe) with different stereochemistry for the Ala residue. Tyr-D-Ala-Phe 1 crystallizes in the C2 space group while Tyr-L-Ala-Phe crystallizes in either

In this study we describe, the construction of a co-expression vector allowing simultaneous production of Thermoplasma volcanium 20S proteasome alpha- and beta-subunits in Escherichia coli. This heterologous expression system provided high level production of fully active 20S proteasome that can

The separation of stereoisomers, particularly enantiomers, is important when their physiological activity differs. We have resolved the four stereoisomers each of alanylphenylalanine (Ala-Phe) and of leucylphenylalanine (Leu-Phe) by capillary electrophoresis using beta-cyclodextrin as a buffer additive and urea to enhance
