Popis: | dl -Cyclobutaneglycine formed by basic hydrolysis of 5-cyclobutylhydantoin prevents the growth of Escherichia coil W in an inorganic salts-glucose medium. This inhibitory effect of the amino acid analog is reversed in a competitive manner over a wide range of concentrations specifically by l -valine. Studies with valyl-tRNA synthetase indicate that cyclobutaneglycine not only prevents the formation of valyl-tRNA but also is transferred to tRNA val . The cellular uptake as well as incorporation into protein of valine is inhibited by cyclobutaneglycine. |
