Fatty Acids: Straight-chain Saturated
Straightor normal-chain, saturated components (even-numbered) make up 10-40% of the total fatty acids in most natural lipids. The most abundant saturated fatty acids in animal and plant tissues are straight-chain compounds with 14, 16 and 18 carbon atoms, but all the possible oddand even-numbered homologues with 2 to 36 carbon atoms have been found in nature in esterified form. They are named s...
متن کاملAmino Acids in Aqueous Solution
In the previous chapter, the focus was mainly on the behavior of ions in solution. The effect of concentration, solvent, as well as pH have been investigated; furthermore, alkali metal ions as well as transition metal ions have been studied. In this chapter, the investigation will be extended from ions to molecules, more specifically toward the behavior of amino acids in solution. Amino acids a...
متن کاملBinding of straight-chain saturated dicarboxylic acids to albumin.
Dicarboxylic acids are prominent features of several diseases, including Reye's syndrome. Long-chain dicarboxylic acids have profound effects on the function and structure of isolated mitochondria, suggesting that they could contribute to the mitochondrial dysfunction in Reye's syndrome. Binding of fatty acids to albumin and the intracellular fatty acid-binding proteins is important in regulati...
متن کاملEnzymic determination of branched-chain amino acids.
Transamination of branched-chain amino acids to (alpha-oxoglutarate, catalyzed by leucine aminotransferase coupled to the glutamate dehydrogenase reaction, is used in an enzymic assay for determination of branched-chain amino acids in serum and tissue homogenates. The coefficients of variation of the method within-day and day-to-day are 2.4 and 6.5%, respectively. Analytical recovery of physiol...
متن کاملMain-chain conformational tendencies of amino acids.
A Ramachandran plot is a visual representation of the main-chain conformational tendencies of an amino acid. Despite forty years of research, the shape of Ramachandran plots is still a matter of debate. The issue in making a Ramachandran plot based on experimental data is deciding whether sparse data represent genuine conformations. We present here a simple solution to settle the ambiguities of...
