The iron-containing enzyme tyrosine hydroxylase catalyzes the hydroxylation of tyrosine to dihydroxyphenylalanine. A series of 4-X-substituted (X = H, F, Br, Cl, CH3, or CH3O) phenylalanines have been characterized as substrates to gain insight into the mechanism of hydroxylation. Multiple

One of the objectives of this study was to develop a method for the reversible arrest of HeLa cells in G2 phase by using p-fluorophenylalanine (FPA), an analog of phenylalanine. Addition of 0.5 mM of FPA to synchronized HeLa cells
