Biochem/physiol Actions

M-Fluorotyrosine (m-Fluoro-DL-tyrosine) may be substituted for tyrosine in the biosynthesis of proteins such as β-galactosidases (Escherichia coli), bacteriorhodopsin and intestinal microvillar enzymes, eg. aminopeptidase N, to study the effect of halogenated tryosines on the proteins properties.

The complex Re(bpy)(CO)3CN is an excited state oxidant of tyrosine upon deprotonation of the tyrosyl phenol. A series of Re(bpy-FnY)(CO)3CN complexes ([Re]-FnY: [Re]-Y, [Re]-3-FY, [Re]-3,5-F2Y, [Re]-2,3-F2Y, [Re]-2,3,5-F3Y, [Re]-2,3,6-F3Y, and [Re]-F4Y) have been prepared so as to vary the FnY*/FnY- reduction

The tracer 6-[18F]fluoro-L-m-tyrosine (FMT) was studied with regard to its biochemistry and kinetics, as well as its utility in evaluating brain dopaminergic function in primates before and after 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) treatment using positron emission tomography (PET). Plasma analysis of FMT

An Escherichia coli tyrosine auxotroph (MR1) with an inducible lacZ was generated by mutagenesis. Of several tyrosine derivatives tested, only m-fluorotyrosine supported the growth of this mutant and allowed synthesis of active beta-galactosidase. The pH profiles of the beta-galactosidase that

Global replacements of tyrosine by 2- and 3-fluorotyrosine in "enhanced green" and "enhanced yellow" mutants of Aequorea victoria green fluorescent proteins (avGFPs) provided protein variants with novel biophysical properties. While crystallographic and modeled structures of these proteins are indistinguishable from
