(9) Long-chain enals are very toxic to TA104, but addition of a reduced glutathione chase following an incubation period decreases this toxicity, thus enabling the detection of 4-hydroxy-pentenal, a homolog of the lipid peroxidation product, 4-hydroxy-nonenal, as a mutagen.
(10) The lactone is preceded in the pathway by 2-amino-2-penten-4-ynoate, a transient electron-rich species which binds tightly to D-amino-acid oxidase and induces a charge-transfer complex with the electron-deficient bound flavin coenzyme.
