The effects of i.p. injections of D,L-beta-(1-naphthyl)alanine, a synthetic analog of tryptophan were tested on the rat sleep-waking cycle. Administration of 30, 60 and 120 mg/kg resulted in a significant increase in slow-wave sleep (SWS) and a decrease in paradoxical

We have previously found that a 14-amino acid residue-peptide, T140, inhibits infection of target cells by T cell line-tropic HIV-1 (X4-HIV-1) through its specific binding to a chemokine receptor, CXCR4. Here, the importance of an L-3-(2-naphthyl)alanine (Nal) residue at position

In order to elucidate the role of the aromatic side-chains in the mechanism of transduction of monovalent cations through the channel of linear gramicidin, two series of analogues containing non-coded aromatic amino acids were synthesized. In the first series, the

Many antimicrobial peptides bear arginine (R)- and tryptophan (W)-rich sequence motifs. Based on the sequence Ac-RRWWRF-NH2, sets of linear and cyclic peptides were generated by changes in the amino acid sequence, L-D-amino acid exchange and naphthylalanine substituted for tryptophan. Linear

Enantiopure L-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid, the (3R)-phenyl, (3R)-naphthyl and (3S)-isopropyl analogs were prepared based on a zinc-mediated asymmetric addition of allylic halides to the camphor sultam derivative of glyoxylic acid O-benzyl oxime.
