3H and 14C from (2R,3S)[U-14C,3-3H1]cysteine and (2R,3R)-[U-14C,2,3-3H2]cysteine were incorporated into cephalosporin C by Cephalosporium acremonium. Analysis of the radioactive cephalosporin C indicated that the formation of its beta-lactam ring occurs stereospecifically and with retention of configuration at C-3 of cysteine.
顶头孢霉将(2R,3S)-[U-¹⁴C,3-³H₁]半胱氨酸和(2R,3R)-[U-¹⁴C,2,3-³H₂]半胱氨酸中的³H和¹⁴C掺入头孢菌素C中。对放射性头孢菌素C的分析表明,其β-内酰胺环的形成具有立体特异性,且半胱氨酸C-3位的构型得以保留。
