Synthetic and enzymatic studies related to branched-chain amino acid metabolism
Several sytheses of a-acetolactate analogues (2-hydroxy-3-oxo carboxylic esters) and related compounds were developed. The action of the enzyme acetolactate decarboxylase upon these compounds was studied. A synthesis of 3-bromo-2-oxo carboxylic acids, esters and amides was developed. Inhibition stud...
