Abstract excerpt
We have shown previously that the outer layers of yeast ascospore walls contain dityrosine and that this amino acid is a major component of the cross-linked peptides present in the spore wall (Briza, P., Winkler, G., Kalchhauser, H., and Breitenbach, M. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 4288-4294). We now present evidence that dityrosine is located in the outermost layer and that it is in the DL-configuration. Although...
