Metabolism of N-Acylated-Dopamine
N-oleoyl-dopamine (OLDA) is a novel lipid derivative of dopamine. Its biological action includes the interaction with dopamine and the transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV1) receptors. It seems to be synthesized in a dopamine-like manner, but there has been no information on its degradation. The aim of the study was, therefore, to determine whether OLDA metabolism proceeds the way dopam...
متن کاملEnzymatic Susceptibility of Comparable N-acylated
The soluble L peptidases of tissue homogenates comprise a number of systems (1, 2), one of which, renal acylase I, has been studied to a considerable extent in this Laboratory (3-6).’ Renal acylase I is essentially an intracellular carboxypeptidase, for it reqdires the presence of a free cr-carboxyl group in the susceptible substrate (5). Apart from this, its specificity requirements are broade...
متن کاملInteractions of cytochrome C with N-acylated phosphatidylethanolamine lipids.
N-acylphosphatidylethanolamines (NAPEs) are naturally occurring derivatives of phosphatidylethanolmine (PE) in which the PE amino group is attached to an acyl chain. Given their occurrence in natural systems, there is interest in knowing the effect of NAPEs on membrane dynamic structure and function. This study examines the ability of NAPEs to affect the association of the cytochrome c and Zn-h...
متن کاملUnusual truncation of N-acylated peptoids under acidic conditions.
The terminal amino groups of peptoids have often been protected with acetyl groups to improve cell permeability and therapeutic potential, and to prevent the poisoning of the catalysts in organometallic reactions. Interestingly, the unusual truncation of the terminal peptoid unit has sometimes been encountered when the acetylated linear peptoids were treated with a TFA cleavage cocktail. In thi...
متن کاملComputational Systems Analysis of Dopamine Metabolism
A prominent feature of Parkinson's disease (PD) is the loss of dopamine in the striatum, and many therapeutic interventions for the disease are aimed at restoring dopamine signaling. Dopamine signaling includes the synthesis, storage, release, and recycling of dopamine in the presynaptic terminal and activation of pre- and post-synaptic receptors and various downstream signaling cascades. As an...
