Abstract:
Kinetics of the beta-elimination of the phosphate group from H-Tyr-Ser(PO3H2)-Phe-OH and H-Tyr-Thr(PO3H2)-Phe-OH and subsequent addition of thiols and amines to the dehydroalaninyl and beta-methyldehydroalaninyl residues formed, were followed by RP HPLC under alkaline conditions in the absence and presence of Ba2+ ions. By this reaction sequence, the phosphoserinyl peptide was conjugated with mono-N-(2-mercaptoethyl)amide of 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (4), a mercapto-functionalized pentapeptide, H-His-Gly-Gly-His-Gly-NH(CH2)4SH, and an amino-functionalized fluorescent dye, 5-dimethylaminonaphthalene-1-[N-(5-aminopentyl)]sulfonamide (dansyl cadaverine). The beta-methyldehydroalanine residue was, in turn, observed to be a poor Michael acceptor.

Phase II Reactions: Methylation Reactions
The mechanism of methylation unfolds in two stages. The first stage sees a methyltransferase enzyme facilitating the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) to the substrate, forming S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH). The second stage involves further metabolism of SAH into homocysteine, which can be recycled...
