Isomers ofl-DOPA and dopamine with a nine-atom19F atom tag were exposed to aromatic acid decarboxylase (AADC) in the lysate ofEscherichia coliJM109 that had been transformed with the plasmid pKKAADCII. The resulting samples were analyzed with HPLC. The first study investigated the conversion of the taggedl-DOPA into tagged dopamine, using the tagged dopamine as a standard. A second study was undertaken to identify the source of peaks seen in the enzymatic assays.l-DOPA with the tag bonded at position 5 served as the best substrate for AADC. Isomers that fit into the active site of AADC are likely to follow the biosynthetic path for dopamine in vivo and are potentially useful in magnetic resonance studies. The enzymatic assay described here provides an efficient and cost-effective tool for screening new compounds for use in the fluorine imaging of neural pathways.
