Feeding experiments with 13C- and fluorine-labelled precursors were performed to reveal the biosynthesis of 2-aminobenzaldehyde in flowers of Robinia pseudoacacia and Philadelphus coronarius. The results are in agreement with the transformation of anthranilic acid to indole followed by oxidative ring

DFT computational studies in the cyclization of aminoalkyne (see structure), which is generated in situ by 2-aminobenzaldehydes and terminal alkynes in the presence of metals and secondary amines, has been investigated. The study revealed that the mode of cyclization (exo

Sticky residue: Pyrroline-carboxy-lysine (Pcl) can be readily incorporated into proteins expressed in E. coli and mammalian cells by using the pyrrolysyl tRNA/tRNA synthetase pair. Pcl can be used as a single amino acid purification tag and can be site-specifically modified

The enzyme dihydrodipicolinate synthase (DHDPS) has been widely investigated as a target for new antibiotics. The o-aminobenzaldehyde (o-ABA) assay is routinely used as a highly specific, if qualitative, tool for DHDPS purification, whereby fractions containing active DHDPS appear purple upon

Among the over 50 gyrate atrophy-causing mutations of ornithine δ-aminotransferase (OAT), the R180T involves an active site residue located at the dimer interface, which in the crystal structure of OAT complexed with 5-fluoromethylornithine engages a salt bridge with the α-carboxylate
