Abstract

The incorporation of valine into the LLD-tripeptide, delta-(L-alpha-aminoadipyl)-L-cysteinyl-D-valine, a precursor of penicillin, was studied by incubating mycelial mats of Penicillium chrysogenum Wis. 49-2105 with double labelled valines. L-valine was incorporated into the LLD-tripeptide without formation of an alpha, beta-didehydrovaline intermediate. Intact D-valine was not incorporated into the LLD-tripeptide.
