) to check derivatisation and chromatography efficiency and to allow quantitation of samples. Note that the Fmoc-amino acid derivatives are stable for 24 h, allowing many samples to be prepared in advance and loaded onto an autosampler for injection

Enzymes Acting on d-Amino Acid Containing Peptides

aminopeptidase and endopeptidase activities. The enzyme was active toward (d -Phe) n , Boc-(d -Phe) n , (d -Phe) n methyl ester, d -Phe-NH2 , Boc-(d -Phe) n methyl ester, and Boc-(d -Phe) n tert -butyl ester, but not toward (d -Ala) n (n = 2–4), (d

Techniques for Measuring the Activity of Carboxylic Acid:CoA Ligase and Acyl‐CoA:Amino Acid N‐Acyltransferase: The Amino Acid Conjugation Pathway

of xenobiotic carboxylic acids are metabolized to their amino acid conjugates via a pathway that exists primarily in liver and kidney. This conjugation occurs in a two?step pathway catalyzed by two distince types of enzymes, ligases and transferases
