There has been focus upon the study of stability constants amino acids with metal ions since they processes antibacterial activities. The ternary complexes were determined by pH metric analysis in aqueous solution at 25.0 0C between ligands (Mercaprosuccinicacid (MSA), Glycine (GLY), L-Aspartic acid (ASP) and L-Asparagine (ASN)) some transition ions(Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) Zn(II)) varying Ethyle...

amino acids (aa) are important in poultry nutrition not only for protein deposition, but also for other metabolic functions; such as improving immune and gut functions. although, some table values are available on amino acids requirement, aa requirements may vary due to changes in dietary composition and breeding selection. thus amino acids requirements have remained an ongoing research topic. ...

Bacillus amyloliquefaciens a-amylase (1,4-a-D-glucan glucanohydrolase. EC 3.2.1.1), which is commercially supplied as 'Bacillus subtilis a-amylase' does not cross-react immunologically with B. subtilis a-amylase. This enzyme (from B. amyloliquefaciens) was cleaved by treatment with CNBr into seven fragments. Peptide A was selected for sequence determination. It is the longest one, containing 18...

Because free amino acids were most probably available in primitive abiotic environments, their metabolism is likely to have provided some of the very first metabolic pathways of life. What were the first enzymatic reactions to emerge? A cladistic analysis of metabolic pathways of the 16 aliphatic amino acids and 2 portions of the Krebs cycle was performed using four criteria of homology. The an...

Glycophorin, the major sialoglycoprotein of the human erythrocyte membrane, is composed of 131 amino acids and an average of 16 oligosaccharide chains. Fifteen oligosaccharides are linked to threonine/serine residues via O-glycosidic bonds, and one more complex unit is attached to asparagine. The location of each of these oligosaccharides and the complete amino-acid sequence of this molecular h...

Abscisic acid production by Cercospora rosicola Passerini in liquid shake culture was measured with different amino acids in combination and singly as nitrogen sources and with different amounts of thiamine in the media. Production of abscisic acid was highest with aspartic acid-glutamic acid and aspartic acid-glutamic acid-serine mixtures as nitrogen sources. Single amino acids that supported ...

The honeybee is one of several insect model systems for the study of olfaction, yet our knowledge regarding the spectrum of odorants detectable by Apis mellifera is limited. One class of odorants that has never been tested so far are the amino acids, which are important constituents of floral nectar. Using the proboscis extension response paradigm, we assessed whether the odor of amino acids is...

Laver, a red algae belonging to the genus Porphyra, is one of the most widely consumed edible seaweeds. The most popular commercial dried laver species, P. tenera and P. haitanensis, were collected from Korea and China, respectively, and evaluated for proximate composition, amino acids, minerals, trace heavy metals, and color. The moisture and ash contents of P. tenera and P. haitanensis ranged...
