Associations of Lyphan with other chemical compounds

  • A mutation resulting in the replacement of tryptophan by arginine at position 64 (Trp64Arg) was detected by an analysis of restriction-fragment-length polymorphisms with the use of the endonuclease BstNl, which discriminates between the normal and mutant sequences [27].
  • But some missense mutations, for example ones in which arginine is replaced by histidine at residue at 117 (R117H; 0.8%), tryptophan at 334 (0.4%), or proline at 347 (0.5%), are associated with milder disease [28].
  • Pulse-probe transient Raman spectroscopy, with probe excitation at 230 nanometers, reveals changes in signals arising from tyrosine and tryptophan residues of the hemoglobin molecule as it moves from the relaxed (R) to the tense (T) state after photodeligation [29].
  • Both of his C kappa genes had a single point mutation, resulting in the loss of the invariant tryptophan from one allele and of an invariant cysteine from the other allele [30].
  • Lysine codons and lysine- and tryptophan-encoding oligonucleotides were introduced at several positions into a 19-kilodalton zein complementary DNA by oligonucleotide-mediated mutagenesis [31].
