- Asymmetric catalytic synthesis method of L-tyrosine derivative
-
The invention relates to an asymmetric catalytic synthesis method of an L-tyrosine derivative, which comprises the following steps of: reacting a compound as shown in a formula (II) with a compound as shown in a formula (III) in the presence of a catalyst as shown in a formula (A), and hydrolyzing to obtain a compound as shown in a formula (I). When the method is used for preparing derivatives such as phosphoric acid or phosphate of L-tyrosine, a large amount of strong acid such as phosphoric acid does not need to be used, the equipment requirement is lowered, the production safety is improved, a large amount of alkali does not need to be adopted for neutralization in post-treatment, generation of a large amount of waste residues such as inorganic salt is avoided, and high economic and environment protection effects are achieved.

- Synthesis of six phenylalanine derivatives and their cell toxicity effect on human colon cancer cell line HT-29
-
Some phenylalanine (Phe) derivatives had important roles in pharmacology and may be used as pharmaceutical materials and pharmaceutical intermediates. In order to understand the cell toxicity of phenylalanine derivatives, we synthesized L-4-bromo-phenylalanine (Brp), L-4-iodophenylalanine (Ip), L-4-nitro-phenylalanine (Np), L-4-sulfonic-phenylalanine (Sp), L-4-phosphophenylalanine (Pp) and L-4-amino-phenylalanine (Np). We used mass spectrometry (MS), Infrared Spectroscopy (IR) or hydrogen-1 nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum (1H-NMR), and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to test the correction of these products, MTT assay and Hoechst 33258 staining to detect their cell toxic effect on human colon cancer cell HT-29 (HT-29 cells). The results showed that these products were correct and the cytotoxicity of Pp>Ip>Sp and Np>Brp, Ap almost had no effect on HT-29 cells. In addition, Pp, Ip and Sp induced cell apoptosis, the other three kinds of phenylalanine derivatives induced neither apoptosis nor necrosis.

- Thiophosphorylation of free amino acids and enzyme protein by thiophosphoramidate ions
-
In search of an activity-preserving protein thiophosphorylation method, with thymidylate synthase recombinant protein used as a substrate, potassium thiophosphoramidate and diammonium thiophosphoramidate salts in Tris- and ammonium carbonate based buffer solutions were employed, proving to serve as a non-destructive environment. Using potassium phosphoramidate or diammonium thiophosphoramidate, a series of phosphorylated and thiophosphorylated amino acid derivatives was prepared, helping, together with computational (using density functional theory, DFT) estimation of 31P NMR chemical shifts, to assign thiophosphorylated protein NMR resonances and prove the presence of thiophosphorylated lysine, serine and histidine moieties. Methods useful for prediction of 31P NMR chemical shifts of thiophosphorylated amino acid moieties, and thiophosphates in general, are also presented. The preliminary results obtained from trypsin digestion of enzyme shows peak at m/z 1825.805 which is in perfect agreement with the simulated isotopic pattern distributions for monothiophosphate of TVQQQVHLNQDEYK where thiophosphate moiety is attached to histidine (His26) or lysine (Lys33) side-chain.

- Phosphorylation of enkephalins enhances their proteolytic stability
-
Pharmacological action of enkephalins as opioid peptides is limited because of their rapid degradation by endoproteases. A novel approach is used in this study to prolong the life of those peptides. Phosphorylation of N-terminal tyrosine residue is found to have a profound influence in improving the stability of [Met]enkephalin and [Leu]enkephalin against the action of aminopeptidase M. Whereas, breakdown of [Met]enkephalin and [Leu]enkephalin is essentially complete in less than one min when incubated at 37°C with purified aminopeptidase M (EC 3.4.11.2; substrate:enzyme = 1:0.1) in Tris buffer (pH 7.02), the corresponding phospho analogs are still detected 60 min after start of incubation. The rate of disappearance of phospho-[Met]enkephalin and phospho-[Leu]enkephalin follows first-order kinetics with half-lives of 7.3 and 8.8 min, respectively.
