The use of 3-fluoro-tyrosine as an alternative substrate for the enzyme tubulin:tyrosine ligase which catalyzes the incorporation of tyrosine into the α-tubulin subunit was investigated. The incorporation of tyrosine into ...

The oxygen reactive species generated during the photooxidation of tyrosine sensitized by riboflavin were studied and the products formed were isolated. It was found that this process occurs preferently through a type I ...

Peptide-based biomaterials are being studied actively in a variety of applications in materials science and biointerface engineering. Likewise, there has been ongoing exploration over the last few decades into the potential ...

In this work, fabrication of a novel and ultrasensitive electrochemical biosensor based on immobilization oftyrosine hydroxylase onto palladium-platinum bimetallic alloy nanoparticles/chitosan-1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ...

Tyrosine is an amino acid related to crucial physiological events and its oxidation, that produce beneficial or detrimental effects on biological systems, has been extensively studied. Degradation of tyrosine often begins ...

Reversible phosphorylation of protein tyrosine residues by polypeptide growth factor-receptor protein tyrosine kinases is implicated in the control of fundamental cellular processes including the cell cycle, cell adhesion, ...

Sperm capacitation is required for fertilization. At the molecular level, this process is associated with fast activation of protein kinase A. Downstream of this event, capacitating conditions lead to an increase in tyrosine ...

Tyrosine nitration is an oxidative post-translational modification that can occur in proteins associated to hydrophobic bio-structures such as membranes and lipoproteins. In this work, we have studied tyrosine nitration ...
