Phosphorylation of plant actin-depolymerising factor by calmodulin-like domain protein kinase.

abstract：:Rabbits ingesting 4-fluorophenylalanine are known to incorporate small amounts of this fluorinated amino acid into their proteins. Carbonic anhydrase I isolated from the erythrocytes of animals so maintained exhibits a well-resolved fluorine NMR signal for each phenylalanine in the sequence. The chemical shifts of mos...
