Literature References: A possible precursor of catecholamines: Sourkes et al., Nature 189, 577 (1961). An intermediate in an alternate pathway for the biosynthesis of catecholamines, where with the existing hydroxylating enzymes m-hydroxylation of phenylalanine to m-tyrosine occurs before p-hydroxylation (forming dopa) and is followed by subsequent decarboxylation to dopamine. Formation in vitro of dopa from L-m-tyrosine: Tong et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 43, 819 (1971); in vivo: Hollunger, Persson, Acta Pharmacol. Toxicol. 34, 391 (1974).

Naturforsch. 19b, 1161 (1964). m-Tyrosine has the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and is decarboxylated to m-tyramine which stimulates dopamine receptors, presumably accounting for the demonstrated pharmacological effects of m-tyrosine.

Additional Names: (5Z)-9-deoxy-6,9a-epoxy-D5-PGF1a; epoprostenol; prostaglandin I2; prostaglandin X; PGI2; PGX...
Literature References: A prostaglandin produced by enzymatic transformation of prostaglandin endoperoxides (PGG2, PGH2), which dilates blood vessels and is approximately 30 times more potent than prostaglandin E1, q.v., in inhibiting platelet aggregation. Evidence for its occurrence during biosynthetic conversion of arachidonic acid by rat stomach homogenates: C. Pace-Asciak, L. S. Wolfe, Biochemistry 10, 3657 (1971). Isoln from microsomes of pig and rabbit aorta by J. R. Vane and co-workers: S. Moncada et al., Nature 263, 663 (1976). Prepn: S. Moncada, N. Whittaker, DE 2720999; S. Moncada, US 4539333 (1977, 1985 both to Wellcome Found.). PGI2 is also synthesized in bovine coronary arteries as well as human arteries and veins: eidem, Lancet 1, 18 (1977); G. J. Dusting et al., Prostaglandins 13, 3 (1977); by cultured human and bovine endothelial cells: B. B. Weksler et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 74, 3922 (1977); by pig aortic endothelial cells: D. E. MacIntyre et al., Nature 271, 549 (1978). It has been suggested that endoperoxides released by platelets can be converted to PGI2 by vascular tissue and that a balance between formation of PGI2 and release of thromboxane A2, q.v., which induces platelet aggregation, controls the formation of thrombi in blood vessels. It has also been postulated that PGI2 acts to stimulate platelet adenylate cyclase and to prevent the action of thrombi on phospholipid breakdown as well as platelet aggregation. Structure: R. A. Johnson et al., Prostaglandins 12, 915 (1976). Synthesis: E. J. Corey et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 99, 3006 (1977); of sodium salt and stereochemistry: R. A. Johnson et al., ibid. 4182.

Additional Names: M-Zyme
Literature References: A proteolytic enzyme, commercially produced by a strain of Streptomyces fradiae: Nickerson, Noval, US 2988487 (1961 to Rutgers Res. and Educ. Found.). Can convert about 50% of the dry wt of wool into a water-sol form, permitting hair separation from hides. The amount of enzyme needed to dehair hides is not enough to cause much digestion of the hair itself, which is recovered and used in felt making. The enzyme attacks at the base of the hair shaft, which is particularly sensitive to the action of keratinase.
