A novel intracellular mutualistic bacterium in the invasive ant Cardiocondyla obscurior.
2016
The evolution of eukaryotic organisms is often strongly influenced by microbial symbionts that confer novel traits to their hosts. Here we describe the intracellular Enterobacteriaceae symbiont of the invasive ant Cardiocondyla obscurior, 'Candidatus Westeberhardia cardiocondylae'. Upon metamorphosis, Westeberhardia is found in gut-associated bacteriomes that deteriorate following eclosion. Only queens maintain Westeberhardia in the ovarian nurse cells from where the symbionts are transmitted to late-stage oocytes during nurse cell depletion. Functional analyses of the streamlined genome of Westeberhardia (533 kb, 23.41% GC content) indicate that neither vitamins nor essential amino acids a…

Condensation of amides of N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)- and N-(trifluoroacetyl)amino acid with pyruvic and phenylpyruvic acid yields, in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid as a catalyst, N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)- and N-(trifluoroacetyl)dehydro dipeptides with C-terminal Δ Ala and ΔPhe, respectively (Table 2 and 3). Synthese von Peptiden mit α,β-Dehydroaminosauren, I. - Synthese von N-(Benzyloxycarbonyl)-und N-(Trifluoracetyl) dipeptiden von Dehydroalanin und Dehydrophenylalanin Die Kondensation von Nα-(Benzyloxycarbonyl)- und Nα-(Trifluoracetyl)aminosaureamiden mit Brenztrauben- und Phenylbrenztraubensaure in Gegenwart von p-Toluolsulfonsaure als Katalysator fuhrt zu N-(Benzyloxycarbonyl)- und N-…
Synthesis of Peptides with α,β-Dehydroamino Acids, II. Synthesis oftert-Butyloxycarbonyldipeptides of Dehydroalanine and Dehydrophenylalanine
1985
Condensation of amides of Boc-amino acids3) with pyruvic acid leads to Boc-dipeptides 1 – 3 of dehydroalanine and 1-Boc-5-alkyl-2-methyl-4-oxo-2-imidazolidinecarboxylic acids 8 – 10. The amides, however, do not condense with phenylpyruvic acid. Boc-dipeptides of dehydroalanine (1 – 3) and dehydrophenylalanine (4 – 7) are synthesized using (Boc)2O and dehydrodipeptides with a free unmasked N-terminal amino group.
