Relationship of fetal alanine uptake and placental alanine metabolism to maternal plasma alanine concentration.
Uterine and umbilical uptakes of alanine (Ala) were measured in 10 ewes before (control) and during intravenous infusion of Ala, which increased maternal arterial Ala concentration from 115 ± 14 to 629 ± 78 μM ( P < 0.001). In 8 of these ewes, placental Ala fluxes were traced by constant intravenous infusion ofl-[3,3,3-2H3]Ala in the mother andl-[1-13C]Ala in the fetus. Rates are reported as mi...
متن کاملCatalytic Stereoinversion of L-Alanine to Deuterated D-Alanine.
A combination of an achiral pyridoxal analogue and a chiral base has been developed for catalytic deuteration of L-alanine with inversion of stereochemistry to give deuterated D-alanine under mild conditions (neutral pD and 25 °C) without the use of any protecting groups. This system can also be used for catalytic deuteration of D-alanine with retention of stereochemistry to give deuterated D-a...
متن کاملInteraction of alanine with lithium. I- the alanine–Li -n (H20) n (0–2) complexes
The energy minima of systems made of an alanine molecule, a lithium cation and a various number of watermolecules have been determined with the help of quantum mechanical computations at the B3LYP DensityFunctional Theory level of computation and the standard 6-311++G (d,p) basis set. Several structures, close inenergy are found and the presence of one or two water molecules around the cation m...
متن کاملMarkerless mutagenesis in Methanococcus maripaludis demonstrates roles for alanine dehydrogenase, alanine racemase, and alanine permease.
Among the archaea, Methanococcus maripaludis has the unusual ability to use L- or D-alanine as a nitrogen source. To understand how this occurs, we tested the roles of three adjacent genes encoding homologs of alanine dehydrogenase, alanine racemase, and alanine permease. To produce mutations in these genes, we devised a method for markerless mutagenesis that builds on previously established ge...
متن کاملSolvent Effect on Protonation Constants of L-alanine and Alanine Methyl ester in Different Aqueous Solutions of 1,4-Dioxane
The protonation constants of alanine and alanine methyl ester were determined in different aqueous solutions of 1,4-dioxane containing (0-50% v/v), using a potentiometric method at 25o C and constant ionic strength 0.1 mol.L-1 (NaCl). The protonation constants were analyzed in terms of Kamlet, Abboud and Taft (KAT) parameters. The results show that the effect of β is higher in comparison with t...
