Versions of the Y55F/Y88F modified form of Delta 5-3-ketosteroid isomerase in which the active-site tyrosine-14 is replaced by 2-fluorotyrosine, 3-fluorotyrosine, and 2,3-difluorotyrosine, amino acids having progressively greater acidity of their phenolic hydroxyls, have been expressed in an Escherichia coli host

Fluorine NMR is a useful tool to probe protein folding, conformation and local topology owing to the sensitivity of the chemical shift to the local electrostatic environment. As an example we make use of (19)F NMR and 3-fluorotyrosine to evaluate

The tracer 6-[18F]fluoro-L-m-tyrosine (FMT) was studied with regard to its biochemistry and kinetics, as well as its utility in evaluating brain dopaminergic function in primates before and after 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) treatment using positron emission tomography (PET). Plasma analysis of FMT

The complex Re(bpy)(CO)3CN is an excited state oxidant of tyrosine upon deprotonation of the tyrosyl phenol. A series of Re(bpy-FnY)(CO)3CN complexes ([Re]-FnY: [Re]-Y, [Re]-3-FY, [Re]-3,5-F2Y, [Re]-2,3-F2Y, [Re]-2,3,5-F3Y, [Re]-2,3,6-F3Y, and [Re]-F4Y) have been prepared so as to vary the FnY*/FnY- reduction
