The amino acid analogs canavanine, 3-hydroxynorvaline, thialysine, 6-fluorotryptophan, m-fluorotyrosine, and 2-fluorophenylalanine were incorporated into proteins, synthesized in pig intestinal mucosal explants, and their effect on molecular processing and intracellular transport of microvillar enzymes studied. Unless they were used in combination, none of the analogs drastically reduced the expression of aminopeptidase N (EC 3.4.11.2) or sucrase-isomaltase (EC 3.2.1.48, EC 3.2.1.10), but to a varying extent, they all slowed the rate of transport to the apical surface. In contrast, the cellular export of a secretory protein, apolipoprotein A-1, was largely unaffected. For the microvillar enzymes, all six analogs caused an accumulation of the transient, high mannose-glycosylated form, indicating an analog-sensitive stage prior to the Golgi-associated processing. For aminopeptidase N, this arrest was shown to correlate with a reduced ability of its transient high mannose-glycosylated form to form homodimers as judged from cross-linking experiments, suggesting dimerization to be obligatory for transport out of the endoplasmic reticulum.

A rapid quantitative method is described for determining 3-fluorotyrosine incorporation into proteins. Derivatives of tyrosine and 3-fluorotyrosine with o-phthalaldehyde are well separated from one another by a reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography system used for routine analyses of o-phthalaldehyde-amino acid derivatives. Since both amino acids are well resolved from all other derivatized amino acids, the method is useful for amino acid analyses of proteins. Determination of the fluorotyrosine content of proteins by this method involves a single separation step, is reproducible, and requires no corrections for stability or yield. Further, the o-phthalaldehyde derivatives of 5-fluorotryptophan, 2-fluorophenylalanine, 3-fluorophenylalanine, and 4-fluorophenylalanine can also be resolved. The method may be generally applicable to fluorinated aromatic amino acid-labeled proteins that are studied structurally and dynamically by nuclear magnetic resonance.

Amino acid-requiring mutants capable of producing derepressed levels of aspartate transcarbamylase (carbamoylphosphate:L-aspartate carbamoyltransferase, EC 2.1.3.2) were obtained and used for the incorporation in this enzyme of eight different amino acid analogs. These amino acid replacements enabled the biosynthesis of a series of modified aspartate transcarbamylases altered in their catalytic or regulatory properties. The enzyme in which phenylalanine was rereplaced by 2-fluorophenylalanine was purified to homogeneity and appeared to have the same specific activity as normal asparate transcarbamylase but lacking both homotropic and heterotropic interactions.

The aim of this study was to evaluate in vivo the boron biodistribution and pharmacokinetics of 4-borono-2-fluorophenylalanine ((19)F-BPA) using (19)F MR Imaging ((19)F MRI) and Spectroscopy ((19)F MRS). The correlation between the results obtained by both techniques, (19)F MRI on rat brain and (19)F MRS on blood samples, showed the maximum (19)F-BPA uptake in C6 glioma model at 2.5h after infusion determining the optimal irradiation time. Moreover, the effect of L-DOPA as potential enhancer of (19)F-BPA tumour intake was assessed using (19)F MRI.
