The DL-arylamino acid ethyl ester derivatives of beta-(3-pyridyl)-DL-alanine, and beta-(3-benzo[b]thienyl)-DL-alanine were synthesized by diethyl acetamidomalonate condensation with the respective arylmethyl halides followed by partial hydrolysis to the monoethyl ester and decarboxylation. Each derivative was enzymatically resolved to a separable mixture

Journal of enzyme inhibition, 2(1), 57-66 (1987-01-01)
Single doses of DL-alpha-amino-beta-(2-pyridine)propanoic acid (2-PA, 100 mg/kg) significantly decreased the holoenzyme and apoenzyme activities of rat liver tryptophan pyrrolase (TP) and increased brain tryptophan, serotonin (5-HT) and 5-hydroxyindole-3-ylacetic acid concentrations. 2-PA had no inhibitory effect on either of the
