HOUPT, T. RICHARD, AND KATHERINE A. HOUPT. Transfer of urea nitro,gen across the rumen wall. Am. J. Physiol. 2 1 /t(6) : 1296-1303. 1968.-Net movement of urea N across the wall of Pavlov-type rumen pouches was measured in three goats and one sheep as urea concentration difference between pouch and blood was varied. When urease activity of the rumen epitheliurn was depressed by vigorous rinsing ...

Saccharomyces cerevisiae can utilize arginine or urea as sole nitrogen source. Arginase degrades arginine to ornithine and urea; urea is catabolized to CO2 and NH3 by the urea degradation system which is composed of a urea carboxylase and an allophanate hydrolase. The arginine analogue, homoarginine, was shown to function as a nonmetabolizable inducer of arginase; it is also a competitive inhib...

The extent of urea denaturation depends on the concentration of protein and urea and also on the temperature of the solution. Egg albumin solutions (0.9 per cent) are not denatured by 20 per cent urea, denature slowly with 25 per cent urea, and denature rapidly with 35 per cent urea at room temperature. At a higher temperature 30 per cent urea is rapidly effective. Denaturation of the egg album...

Urea is important for the conservation of body water due to its role in the production of concentrated urine in the renal inner medulla. Physiologic data demonstrate that urea is transported by facilitated and by active urea transporter proteins. The facilitated urea transporter (UT-A) in the terminal inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) permits very high rates of transepithelial urea transpo...

In mangrove killifish Rivulus marmoratus, urea excretion (J(urea)) follows a distinct diurnal pattern with the highest rates between 12:00 h and 18:00 h. We investigated the regulating mechanisms that underlie temporal rhythms in J(urea) in R. marmoratus. We hypothesized that the daily pattern of J(urea) in R. marmoratus is (1) due to diurnal changes in urea synthesis rates and ultimately metab...

Isolated hepatocytes prepared from sheep fed a basal diet (bromegrass hay-corn, 50:50 wt/ wt, as-fed basis) with or without urea were used to determine the effects of added ammonia (as NH4Cl) and propionate on the partitioning of C from 1.25 mM L-[1-14C]alanine between oxidation and gluconeogenesis, and the flux of 15N from 1.25 mM L-[15N]alanine to [14N15N]urea and [15N15N]urea. Hepatocyte sus...

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have emerged as a cheaper and greener alternative to conventional organic solvents. Choline chloride (ChCl) mixed with urea at molar ratio of 1:2 is one the most common DESs for wide range applications such electrochemistry, material science, biochemistry. In this study, molecular dynamics simulations are performed study effect content on thermodynamic transport pr...

Urea transporters (UTs) effect rapid flux of urea across biological membranes. In the mammalian kidney, UT activity is essential for effective urine concentration. In bacteria, UT-mediated urea uptake permits intracellular urease to degrade urea to ammonia and CO(2), a process that either buffers acid loads or provides nutrient nitrogen. We have characterized the urea transport channel protein ...

Hallum, J. V. (University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pa.), and J. S. Youngner. Urea and thermal mutants of poliovirus. J. Bacteriol. 91:2305-2308. 1966.-Thermally selected mutants of poliovirus which differed in sensitivity to heating at 50 C were inactivated with urea. With 3 m urea, urea resistance paralleled thermal resistance. In contrast, when urea-resistant mutants were selected from ther...
