The diacetyl reaction for proteins

The carbamido diacetyl reaction: a test for citrulline.

THE carbamido-acid citrulline, isolated by Koga & Odake in 1914 from the water melon, attracted no general attention until Wada [1930] established its constitution as cx-amino-&-carbamidovaleric acid, and showed [1933, 1] that it also occurred among the products of the tryptic digestion of caseinogen. The importance of the acid in nitrogen metabolism was revealed when Krebs & Henseleit [1932] d...

A study of the reaction of urea with diacetyl monoxime and diacetyl.

Diacetyl oxidation by Streptococcus faecalis, a lipoic acid dependent reaction.

In the over-all reaction, one molecule of diacetyl is oxidized to two molecules of acetate, and another molecule of diacetyl is reduced to acetoin. The reaction was shown to require cocarboxylase (DPT).2 Subsequently, Schweet et al. (1951) expanded this finding and pointed out the similarity between the diacetyl reaction and pyruvic acid oxidation, with respect to the metabolism of the "active ...

An improved diacetyl reaction for the estimation of urea in blood.

the search for the self in becketts theatre: waiting for godot and endgame

this thesis is based upon the works of samuel beckett. one of the greatest writers of contemporary literature. here, i have tried to focus on one of the main themes in becketts works: the search for the real "me" or the real self, which is not only a problem to be solved for beckett man but also for each of us. i have tried to show becketts techniques in approaching this unattainable goal, base...
