Fall 2016
Ben Stillwell
Junior Biochemistry Major

Research Times

T/TH 10am-12pm


Proposed Research Project

Investigating the metabolism of N-acetyl L-tyrosine modeled by an enzymatic, single-electron oxidation using HRP.

Project Title

General Information

Advisor: Dr. Bradley E. Sturgeon

Proposal

Synthesize the primary products of this oxidation and investigate their activity in a similar system to determine the level to which N-acetyl L-tyrosine is oxidized by this type of enzyme.

Instruments to be used

HPLC, Flash Chromotography System, NMR, Immobilized Enzyme column, ESR

References (2 minimum)
