AN EFFICIENT SUBSTITUTE FOR THE ALPHA-AMINOADIPOYL MOIETY OF DELTA-(L-ALPHA-AMINOADIPOYL)-L-CYSTEINYL-D-VALINE IN THE ENZYMATIC-SYNTHESIS OF PENICILLINS

meta-Carboxyphenylacetyl-L-cysteinyl-D-valine was shown to be a highly efficient substrate for Isopenicillin N Synthetase, with similar Michaelis constant and maximum velocity parameters to the natural substrate δ-(L-α-aminoadipoyl)-L-cysteinyl-D-valine.1. © 1987.
