Abstract/OtherAbstract:
N-[2-14C]Acetyldopamine (NADA) was incubated in vitro with a series of homopolyamino acids or proteins in the presence of cell-free cuticle from locusts. The oxidized NADA was bound to the materials in varying degrees. The results indicate that lysine and histidine sidechains in the cuticular proteins might be the most likely candidates as participants in the crosslinking process in agreement with the results obtained by NMR.
