Background: a metabolic condition characterized by failure in the metabolism of proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates that is brought on problems with insulin production. When multiple autoantibodies, such as those against glutamic acid decarboxylase, are present different antigens, type 1 diabetes present. Objective: To estimate Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase Autoantibodies assessment HbA1c DM. Met...

1. Amino acid metabolism and protein synthesis in a Staphylococcus aureus mutant strain that requires pyrithiamine for optimum growth were studied and compared with those in the thiamine-requiring parent S. aureus. 2. The mutant strain utilized amino acids at a higher rate than did the parent strain. The utilization of glutamic acid, serine and glycine was much stimulated in the mutant strain. ...

Dominant strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from honey bees were evaluated for their γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-producing ability. Out of 24 strains, strain Taj-Apis362 showed the highest GABA-producing ability (1.76 mM) in MRS broth containing 50 mM initial glutamic acid cultured for 60 h. Effects of fermentation parameters, including initial glutamic acid level, culture temperatur...

Aspartic acid, like glutamic acid, occupies a central position in amino acid metabolism. In most tissues it takes part in the transamination reaction (1). In the liver and the kidney, where all amino acids undergo cleamination, the rate of this process for aspartic acid is second only to glutamic acid (2). For these reasons, one would expect the exchange of amino nitrogen of aspartic acid with ...

Background: Patients with stiff-person syndrome (SPS) have circulating antibodies against glutamic acid decarboxylase, the rate-limiting enzyme responsible for the synthesis of -aminobutyric acid (GABA). Although the patients’ symptoms of stiffness and unexpected spasms can be explained on the basis of reduced or impaired inhibitory neurotransmitters, such as GABA, it is unclear whether the lev...

Reaction of thionyl chloride with 7-chloro-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4- oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid 1 gave acid chloride 2. Compound 2 was reacted with glycine and D-glutamic acid to afford 2-(7-chloro-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4- dihydroquinoline-3-carbonyl) aminopantandioicacid 3a and 2-(7-chloro-1-cyclopropyl-6- fluoro -4- oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carbonyl)aminoacetica...

To prevent the loss of raw material in ethanol production by anaerobic yeast cultures, glycerol formation has to be reduced. In theory, this may be done by providing the yeast with amino acids, since the de novo cell synthesis of amino acids from glucose and ammonia gives rise to a surplus of NADH, which has to be reoxidized by the formation of glycerol. An industrial strain of Saccharomyces ce...

The aim of this study was to investigate the application of elicitors (500 μM ascorbic acid, 50 μM folic acid, 5 mM glutamic acid and 50 ppm chitosan in 5 mM glutamic acid) during lentil germination up to 8 days as a strategy to increase germination rate and to enhance the accumulation of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and phenolic compounds. The effect of elicitation on the protein profile and ant...
