Sulfur amino acids in methionine-restricted rats: hyperhomocysteinemia. by Elshorbagy, A, Valdivia-Garcia, M, Refsum, H, Smith, A, Mattocks, D, Perrone, C

“…However, little is known about the effects of methionine restriction on serum methionine and its downstream sulfur amino acids. We investigated the serum sulfur amino acid profile of male Fischer-344 rats fed a methionine-restricted diet for 3 mo. …”

Vitamins, amino acids and drugs and formulations used in nutrition by Onakpoya, I

“…This review of the January 2012 to June 2013 publications on vitamins, amino acids and drugs and formulations used in nutrition covers vitamin A (carotenoids), vitamins of the B group (cobalamins, folic acid and folinic acid, hopantenic acid, pyridoxine, riboflavin, tetrahydrobiopterin and sapropterin and thiamine), vitamin C (ascorbic acid), vitamin D analogues, vitamin E (tocopherol), vitamin K analogues, amino acids (arginine, glycine, and ornithine) and enteral and parenteral nutrition.…”

Synthesis of oligomers of tetrahydrofuran amino acids: furanose carbopeptoids by Smith, M, Long, D, Marquess, D, Claridge, T, Fleet, G

“…An acid catalysed ring rearrangement of a triflate derivative of D-mannono-γ-lactone 6 is the key step in the synthesis of the C-glycosyl sugar amino acid derivatives 3 and 4, examples of carbohydrate amino acid building blocks with specific conformational preferences suitable for incorporation into combinatorial amide libraries; homo-oligomerisation via solution phase coupling procedures affords furanose carbopeptoids 1 which adopt novel solution state secondary structures.…”

Vitamins, amino acids, and drugs and formulations used in nutrition by Onakpoya, I, Aronson, J

“…This review of the 2011 publications on vitamins, amino acids, and drugs and formulations used in nutrition covers vitamin A (carotenoids), vitamins of the B group (cobalamins, folic acid and folinic acid, hopantenic acid, pyridoxine, riboflavin, tetrahydrobiopterin and sapropterin, and thiamine), vitamin C (ascorbic acid), vitamin D analogues, vitamin E (tocopherol), vitamin K analogues, amino acids (arginine, glycine, and ornithine), and enteral and parenteral nutrition. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.…”

Insights into L-type heteromeric amino acid transporters by Newstead, S

“…Two recent cryo-EM structures of the human L-type heteromeric amino acid transporter LAT1–CD98hc reveal surprising new insights into both amino acid transport in the human body and the roles of CD98hc as a cell-surface antigen and trafficking chaperone.…”

Amino acids and biogenic amines determination in Mystus nemurus. by Widjaja, Willy Pranata, AS, Abdel Ameer, Abu Bakar, Fatimah, Saari, Nazamid, Ishak, Zamri, Harith, Hanis Hazeera

“…The biogenic amine contents were found to correlate with the free amino acids contents. The level of biogenic amines increased in accordance with decreasing free amino acids during storage (P<0.05). …”
