N-Acetyl-β-phenylalanine is a substrate for bacterial tRNA(Phe) peptidyltransferase. Hydrocinnamic acid is an aromatic lignin monomer.
N-Acetyl-DL-β-phenylalanine is a racemic mixture of N-acetylated β-phenylalanine enantiomers. N-Acetyl-DL-β-phenylalanine is a product generated from the chromogenic substrate N-acetyl-DL-phenylalanine β-napthyl ester by specific esterase(s).

The chemotactic and N-acetyl-DL-phenylalanine beta-naphthyl esterase activities of rabbit peritoneal neutrophils are separable from each other by both DEAE cellulose and Sephadex G-100 column chromatography. Partially purified esterase obtained from DEAE-cellulose chromatography had molecular weight of 70 000. However, the
This study is designed to investigate the biodegradation of high molecular weight (HMW) lignin under sulfate reducing conditions. With a continuously mesophilic operated reactor in the presence of co-substrates of cellulose, the changes in HMW lignin concentration and chemical structure

p-Coumaroyl-CoA 3'-hydroxylase (C3'H) is a cytochrome P450-dependent monooxygenase that catalyzes the 3'-hydroxylation of p-coumaroyl shikimate and p-coumaroyl quinate. We used RNA interference to generate transgenic hybrid poplar suppressed in C3'H expression and analyzed them with respect to transcript abundance, cell

The initial reactions of the phenylpropanoid pathway convert phenylalanine to p-coumaroyl CoA, a branch point metabolite from which many phenylpropanoids are made. Although the second enzyme of this pathway, cinnamic acid 4-hydroxylase (C4H), is well characterized, a mutant for the
Eight structurally modified peptidyl-tRNA(Phe),s were employed to study P-site binding and peptide bond formation in a cell-free system involving Escherichia coli ribosomes programmed with poly(uridylic acid). It was found that the two analogues (N-acetyl-D-phenylalanyl-tRNA(Phe) and N-acetyl-D-tyrosyl-tRNA(Phe] containing D-amino acids functioned
