In silico analysis of the inhibitory activities of GABA derivatives on 4-aminobutyrate transaminase
AbstractReduced levels of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) are cause of quite a many diseases, and it cannot be directly introduced into the body to enhance its level because of the blood–brain barrier. Thus the technique used for the purpose involves the inhibition of aminobutyrate transaminase (ABAT), the enzyme catalyzing its degradation. The structure of

4‐Aminobutyrate aminotransferase (GABA‐transaminase) deficiency
Abstract4‐Aminobutyrate aminotransferase (GABA‐transaminase, GABA‐T, EC 2.6.1.19) deficiency (McKusick 137150), an inborn error of GABA degradation, has until now been documented in only a single Flemish child. Compared to the other defects of GABA degradation, succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH, EC 1.2.1.24) deficiency with >150 patients ...

Transaminase and Norcoclaurine Synthase One-Pot Cascades Towards (1S)-Tetrahydroisoquinolines. [PDF]
A TAm‐NCS cascade towards THIQs has been established, starting from amines with the in situ production of aldehydes. The cascade was used with a variety of nonfunctionalized and functionalized amines, and reaction conditions modified to enhance formation of the desired cross‐products.

Multi-omic data integration and exploiting metabolic models using systems biology approach increase precision in subtyping and early diagnosis of cancer. [PDF]
Abstract Cancer is a complex and heterogeneous disease characterized by various genetic and epigenetic alterations. Early diagnosis, accurate subtyping, and staging are essential for effective, personalized treatment and improved survival rates. Traditional diagnostic methods, such as biopsies, are invasive and carry operational risks that hinder ...

Suppression of γ-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) Transaminases Induces Prominent GABA Accumulation, Dwarfism and Infertility in the Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) [PDF]
Tomatoes accumulate γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) at high levels in the immature fruits. GABA is rapidly converted to succinate during fruit ripening through the activities of GABA transaminase (GABA-T) and succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH ...

Phenotyping GABA transaminase deficiency: a case description and literature review [PDF]
Gamma-aminobutyric acid transaminase (GABA-T) deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder reported in only three unrelated families. It is caused by mutations in the ABAT gene, which encodes 4-aminobutyrate transaminase, an enzyme of GABA catabolism ...

Catalytic Promiscuity of Transaminases : Preparation of Enantioenriched β-Fluoroamines by Formal Tandem Hydrodefluorination/Deamination [PDF]
Transaminases are valuable enzymes for industrial biocatalysis and enable the preparation of optically pure amines. For these transformations they require either an amine donor (amination of ketones) or an amine acceptor (deamination of racemic amines ...
