Impact of Inhibition of Glutamine and Alanine Transport on Cerebellar Glial and Neuronal Metabolism
The cerebellum, or “little brain”, is often overlooked in studies of brain metabolism in favour of the cortex. Despite this, anomalies in cerebellar amino acid homeostasis in a range of disorders have been reported.

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

The biosynthesis from L-alanine of D-alanyl-D-alanine, required for the peptidoglycan layer of the cell wall of many bacterial species, is catalyzed by two enzymes in series, alanine racemase and D-alanine: D-alanine ligase. A simple in vitro method, called the combined assay, for simultaneously testing for effectors of either or both enzymes in a ...

How Hydrophobic Is Alanine? [PDF]
By a number of measures, alanine is poised at the threshold between those amino acids that promote the membrane integration of transmembrane alpha-helices and those that do not. We have measured the preference of alanine to partition into the lipid-water interface region over the central acyl chain region of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane both

The effects of 5 days β-alanine supplementation on the velocity and the percentage o2max at the lactate threshold [PDF]
Purpose: To assess the effect of 5 days β-alanine supplementation on the velocity and the percentage of O2max ¬¬ (%O2max) at the lactate threshold (Tlac) during treadmill running.
