Studies on the synthesis of the fluorescent bases from phenylalanine transfer ribonucleic acids
Abstract:
L-Serine has been transformed into (R)-[2-carboxy-2-[(methoxycarbonyl) amino]ethyl]triphenylphosphonium chloride in seven steps. The Wittig reaction of this compound with 1-benzyl-7-formylwye followed by successive methylation and reduction has produced (S)-wybutine.

Transfer RNA Synthesis
Each of these chemical modifications is carried by a specific enzyme, post-transcription. All of these enzymes have unique base and site-specificity. Methylation, the most common chemical modification, is carried by at least nine different enzymes, with...
Protein Dynamics in Living Cells
Fluorescent recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) is a fluorescent-protein-based detection technique used to quantify protein movement rates within the cell. This method exposes a small portion of the cell to an intense laser beam. The laser beam causes permanent photobleaching of the fluorophore-tagged proteins in the exposed region. As the bleached...
