The crystal structure of L-2-aminobutyric acid, an L-alanine analogue with an ethyl rather than a methyl side chain, has proved elusive owing to problems growing diffraction quality crystals. Good diffraction data have now been obtained for two polymorphs, in space

In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the antibiotic dihydroaeruginoate (Dha) and the siderophore pyochelin are produced from salicylate and cysteine by a thiotemplate mechanism involving the peptide synthetases PchE and PchF. A thioesterase encoded by the pchC gene was found to be necessary

Synaptic remodelling coordinated with dendritic growth is essential for proper development of neural connections. After establishment of synaptic contacts, synaptic junctions are thought to become stationary and provide fixed anchoring points for further dendritic growth. However, the possibility of active
