4-[18F]fluoroglutamic acid (BAY 85-8050), a new amino acid radiotracer for PET imaging of tumors: synthesis and in vitro characterization.

J. Med. Chem. 54(1) , 406-10, (2011)

There is a high demand for tumor specific PET tracers in oncology imaging. Besides glucose, certain amino acids also serve as energy sources and anabolic precursors for tumors. Therefore, (18)F-labeled amino acids are interesting probes for tumor specific PET...

Mutations of the Corynebacterium glutamicum NCgl1221 gene, encoding a mechanosensitive channel homolog, induce L-glutamic acid production.

Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 73(14) , 4491-8, (2007)

Corynebacterium glutamicum is a biotin auxotroph that secretes L-glutamic acid in response to biotin limitation; this process is employed in industrial L-glutamic acid production. Fatty acid ester surfactants and penicillin also induce L-glutamic acid secreti...

Vitamin K-dependent carboxylation. Study of the hydrogen abstraction stereochemistry with gamma-fluoroglutamic acid-containing peptides.

J. Biol. Chem. 258(13) , 7897-9, (1983)

Two pentapeptides Phe-Leu-X-Glu-Val where X is either the L-threo-gamma-fluoroglutamic acid or the L-erythro-isomer have been synthesized and tested as substrates in the vitamin K-dependent carboxylation. Both peptides are carboxylated, but the reaction occur...

Glutamylation of methotrexate in hepatoma cells in vitro: regulation and the development of specific inhibitors.

Adv. Enzyme Regul. 23 , 13-23, (1985)

Methotrexate is glutamylated in cultured hepatoma cells to derivatives that contain a total of 2 to 5 gamma-glutamyl residues. The rate of polyglutamate formation and extent of accumulation are saturable with respect to both medium concentration of methotrexa...

Bacterial defluorination of 4-fluoroglutamic acid.

Appl. Microbiol. Biotechnol. 77(3) , 699-703, (2007)

Fluorinated amino acids are used as enzyme inhibitors, mechanistic probes and in the production of pharmacologically active peptides. Because enantiomerically pure 4-fluoroglutamate is difficult to prepare, the selective degradation of the L-isomer is a poten...

Electrophilic fluorination of pyroglutamic acid derivatives: application of substrate-dependent reactivity and diastereoselectivity to the synthesis of optically active 4-fluoroglutamic acids.

J. Org. Chem. 66(26) , 8831-42, (2001)

Electrophilic fluorination of enantiomerically pure 2-pyrrolidinones (4) derived from (L)-glutamic acid has been investigated as a method for the synthesis of single stereoisomers of 4-fluorinated glutamic acids. Reaction of the lactam enolate derived from 9 ...

DL-threo-4-fluoroglutamic acid. A chain-terminating inhibitor of folylpolyglutamate synthesis.

J. Biol. Chem. 260(11) , 6747-54, (1985)

The effects of 4-fluoroglutamate on the reaction catalyzed by partially purified rat liver folylpolyglutamate synthetase have been investigated. DL-threo-4-Fluoroglutamate was an effective, concentration-dependent inhibitor of polyglutamylation of both tetrah...

Biochemical and biological properties of methotrexate analogs containing D-glutamic acid or D-erythro, threo-4-fluoroglutamic acid.

Biochem. Pharmacol. 42(12) , 2400-3, (1991)

Effects of D,L-4-fluoroglutamic acid on glutamylation of methotrexate by hepatic cells in vitro.

Influence of stereoisomers of 4-fluoroglutamate on rat brain glutamate decarboxylase.

J. Enzym. Inhib. 15(3) , 273-82, (2000)

Inhibition of rat brain glutamate decarboxylase (GAD, EC 4.1.1.15) by individual stereoisomers of 4-fluoroglutamate (4-F-Glu) and 2-fluoro-4-aminobutyrate (2-F-GABA) was studied. All stereoisomers of 4-F-Glu inhibited decarboxylation of L-glutamate catalysed ...
