Chapter 3: Energy, Catalysis, and Biosynthesis

The biosynthesis of the pyrrolylpolyene rumbrin (1 ... In comparison, feeding with a biosynthetically unrelated amino acid such as [15N]-glycine gave a much lower incorporation at the same concentations (5.1% and 8.1%, respectively). This incorporation presumably arose from enrichment of the cellular nitrogen pool by deamination of glycine, for ... ................
