Voltage-gated sodium channels (NaV) play an important role in general anesthesia. Electrophysiology measurements suggest that volatile anesthetics such as isoflurane inhibit NaV by stabilizing the inactivated state or altering the inactivation kinetics. Recent computational studies suggested the existence of multiple

A Pseudomonas putida S12 strain was constructed that efficiently produced the fine chemical cinnamic acid from glucose or glycerol via the central metabolite phenylalanine. The gene encoding phenylalanine ammonia lyase from the yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides was introduced. Phenylalanine availability was

A fluorine-containing analogue of the cyclic AMP (cAMP) receptor protein (CRP) from Escherichia coli was prepared by biosynthetic incorporation of 3-fluorophenylalanine (3-F-Phe). 19F n.m.r. studies on this protein have provided direct evidence for cAMP-induced conformational changes not only within the

A series of di- and tripeptides containing D- and L-m-fluorophenylalanine was prepared and tested in vitro for the ability to inhibit the growth of the yeast Candida albicans. The results demonstrate that peptides containing L-m-fluorophenylalanine inhibited the growth of C.
