Branched-Chain Amino Acid Metabolism in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Valine, leucine and isoleucine form the small group of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) classified by their small branched hydrocarbon residues. Unlike animals, plants are able to de novo synthesize these amino acids from pyruvate, 2-oxobutanoate and acetyl-CoA. In plants, biosynthesis follows the typical reaction pathways established for the formation of these amino acids in microorganisms. ...
متن کاملBranched-Chain Amino Acid Levels Are Related with Surrogates of Disturbed Lipid Metabolism among Older Men
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Existing studies suggest that decreased branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) catabolism and thus elevated levels in blood are associated with metabolic disturbances. Based on such information, we have developed a hypothesis how BCAA degradation mechanistically connects to tricarboxylic acid cycle, intramyocellular lipid storage, and oxidation, thus allowing more efficient mitochondr...
متن کاملBranched Chain Amino Acid Aminotransferase
The kinetics of transamination reactions catalyzed by pig heart “branched chain amino acid” aminotransferase was investigated. The activation of aged preparations by 2mercaptoethanol, previously noted, was associated with increases in both the maximum velocity and enzyme-substrate affinities. This implies a protein conformational change. The sharp pH optimum observed with standard assay conditi...
متن کاملProperties of the branched-chain 2-hydroxy acid/2-oxo acid shuttle in mouse spermatozoa.
Operation of the branched-chain 2-hydroxy acid/2-oxo acid shuttle for the transfer of reducing equivalents in mitochondria of mouse spermatozoa was studied in vitro in reconstituted systems. Results show that the branched-chain 2-oxo acids within the mitochondria are offered several metabolic pathways. (a) Decarboxylation: mouse sperm mitochondria possess high branched-chain 2-oxo acid decarbox...
متن کاملLipoic Acid-Dependent Oxidative Catabolism of -Keto Acids in Mitochondria Provides Evidence for Branched- Chain Amino Acid Catabolism in Arabidopsis
Lipoic acid-dependent pathways of -keto acid oxidation by mitochondria were investigated in pea (Pisum sativum), rice (Oryza sativa), and Arabidopsis. Proteins containing covalently bound lipoic acid were identified on isoelectric focusing/ sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis separations of mitochondrial proteins by the use of antibodies raised to this cofactor. All these ...
