## Abstract Tryptophan synthase catalyzes the nucleophilic replacement of the hydroxyl group at C‐3 of L‐serine. This enzyme can use benzyl mercaptan as a nucleophile in the conversion of serine to S‐benzyl‐L‐cysteine which is deblocked by treatment with sodium in liquid ammonia to yield L‐cysteine

## Abstract We have developed a stereospecific biosynthesis of ^13^C‐ and ^15^N‐labeled L‐serine which involves the serine‐type methylotroph __Methylobacterium extorquens__ AM1. In this biosynthesis, C‐3 of serine is derived from methanol while C‐2, C‐1 and the α‐amino group are derived from glycin
## D-Shikimic acids I-I4C, 6-14C and 7-(carboxyl) 14C have been biosyntheticaily prepared with specific activities of about 25 mCi/ mmole and with overall yields of 45% based on pyruvate 3,2 or I-1% as the respective starting materials. A crude cellfree homogenate of E. coli 83-24 was used to cat
## Abstract ^3^H‐ and ^14^C‐Labelled doisynolic acid was prepared from 6,7‐^3^H‐, 2,4,6,7‐^3^H‐ and 4‐^14^C‐labelled oestradiol and oestrone by a regulated alkali fusion. Labelled marrianolic acid was similarly prepared from labelled oestriol. Unstability of regiospecific tritium labels in alkali w
## Abstract The title compounds were synthesized starting from dimethyl (2S,3aR,8aS)‐(+)‐8‐(phenylsulfonyl)hexahydrophyrrolo[2,3‐b]indole‐1,2‐dicarboxylate. This compound on treatment with LDA followed by reaction with [^14^C]methyl iodide or [^3^H]methyl iodide gave the methyl substituted derivati
