However, due to the involvement of pest species in crop destruction and in vector‐borne diseases, insecticides will probably continue to be required still for decades. The most commercially successful insecticides are neurotoxicants acting on ion channels of the central nervous system affecting thereby cellular excitability and synaptic transmission and causing insect paralysis and fatality. In this article, we provide an overview of the insecticides acting on voltage‐gated sodium channels, GABA‐gated chloride channels and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. We summarize the current knowledge on those ion channels from the honeybee Apis mellifera and discuss the possible mode of action of neurotoxic insecticides.

Dans une premiere partie l'alpha-chymotrypsine endoprotease specifique vis-a-vis des acides amines aromatiques, est modifiee par des fonctions acryliques et copolymerisee avec des agents de reticulation et de maille a base de polyethylene glycols eux aussi fonctionnalises. Dans une deuxieme partie nous avons etudie les capacites de ce biocatalyseur supporte dans des couplages peptidiques en milieu organiques ou les phenomenes d'hydrolyse secondaire, constates dans la synthese enzymatique en milieu aqueux, sont quasiment elimines. Le biocatalyseur supporte permet l'obtention de produits optiquement purs avec des rendements tres satisfaisants. L'interet economique et industriel d'un tel catalyseur est son recyclage: il peut catalyser plusieurs ...

The structures of the synthesized compounds were established by 1 H-NMR, MS data and elemental analysis

The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of these alkynes with the 4- azidomethyl-4-methyl-2-phenyloxazoline 3 afford new oxazolinic derivatives 4-5, precursors of biheterocyclic aminoalcohols, aminoaldehydes and amino acids.

For 7-azatryptophane these methods were unsuccessful and enzymatic resolution using an aminoacylase was the best way to prepare the enantiomerically pure compound.

This study pointed out the factors that govern the possibility to enzymatically bind the carbohydrate to the amino acid.

glutamatergic synapse activity, we have developed an asymmetric synthesis of new enantiomerically
pure 4-substituted L-theanine derivatives. The key step is a stereospecific alkylation on a previously synthesized
and correctly protected (S)-pyroglutamate.
