Enzymic 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...

Lowered Concentrations of Branched-Chain Amino Acids Result in Impaired Growth and Neurological Problems: Insights from a Branched-Chain -Keto Acid Dehydrogenase Complex Kinase-Deficient Mouse Model

Excess circulating levels of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), as seen in maple syrup urine disease, result in severe neuropathology. A new mouse model, deficient in the kinase that controls BCAA catabolism, shows that very low circulating levels of BCAA are also associated with neuropathology, including the development of epileptic seizures. These mice clearly demonstrate the need to control ...

Maple Syrup Urine Disease Induced Grand Mal Seizures: A Case Report

Background Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD) is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic error, characterized by Branched Chain α-Keto-acid Dehydrogenase Complex (BCKDC) deficiency. Mutations in 3 genes can lead to abnormal metabolism and accumulation of leucine, isoleucine, valine and corresponding keto-acids. MSUD affects 1 in 185,000 infants globally. Seizure is a common presentation among neonat...

Carrier Mediated Transport of Amino Acids, Their Drug Analogs*

The oral absorption of amino acids, small peptides and their analogs has been studied in rats using single pass intestinal perfusion, The experimental data was analyzed using a modified boundary layer method permitting the calculation of intrinsic membrane absorption parameters. Cefatrizine, L-Dopa, cu-methyldopa, and L-PHE demonstrated concentration dependent absorption. Furthermore, the absor...
