The 600 MHz proton n.m.r. spectra of (sarcosyl7)-oxytocin and (N-methylalanyl7) oxytocin in 2H2O solution have been recorded and completely assigned. In each case the spectrum indicates the presence of two slowly interconverting conformers, which are the cis-trans isomers about the

Substituting sarcosine or N-methylalanine for proline in the inhibitory vasopressin analogs dPAVP and d(CH2)5AVP had the following effects: 1) milk ejection and antidiuretic activities were severely depressed, 2) pressor antagonism was maintained but weakened somewhat, and 3) antagonism in the

Synaptosomes isolated from adult rat cerebral cortices were used for studying the uptake of L-leucine by the Na(+)-dependent route. Three non-metabolizable amino acid analogues, which had been used previously to discriminate the Na(+)-dependent A-type uptake system of animal cells, were

Spontaneous mutants resistant to methionine sulfoximine (Msx), methyl alanine (Mal) and methyl ammonium chloride (Mac) were derived from A. chroococcum strain A103. Msx and Mal-resistant mutants expressed 1.73 to 10.98% of the fully derepressed nitrogenase activity when grown in Burk's
