Affinity labeling of alanine aminotransferase by 3-chloro-L-alanine.
The pyridoxal form of alanine aminotransferase from pig heart catalyzes the a,/? elimination reaction with 3chloro-L-alanine as the substrate to form equimolar amounts of pyruvate, ammonia, and chloride. The maximum rate of the a,/3 elimination reaction was 2.5 pmol/min/mg at pH 7.0 (25”(Z), approximately 0.5% that of the transamination reaction between L-alanine and 2-oxoglutarate. Time-depend...
متن کاملGliotoxicity of the cyanotoxin, β-methyl-amino-L-alanine (BMAA)
The amino acid variant β-methyl-amino-L-alanine (BMAA) has long been associated with the increased incidence and progression of the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis/Parkinsonism dementia complex (ALS/PDC). Previous studies have indicated that BMAA damages neurons via excitotoxic mechanisms. We have challenged rat olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) with exogenous BMAA and found it to be cytotoxic. ...
متن کاملeradication of methicillin resistant s. aureus biofilm by the combined use of fosfomycin and β-chloro-l-alanine
background and objectives: biofilm formation is an important virulence factor for methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (mrsa). fosfomycin is a borad-spectrum antibiotic with inhibitory effects on biofilm production and β-chloro-l-alanine (β-cla) is an amino acid analog. the aim of this study was to determine effect of the combination of fosfomycin and β-cla on biofilm production by mrsa ...
