Inducible arginase 1 deficiency in mice leads to hyperargininemia and altered amino acid metabolism [PDF]
, 2013 Arginase deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disorder resulting from a loss of the liver arginase isoform, arginase 1 (ARG1), which is the final step in the urea cycle for detoxifying ammonia. ARG1 deficiency leads to hyperargininemia, characterized

PNAS plus: plasmodium falciparum responds to amino acid starvation by entering into a hibernatory state [PDF]
, 2012 The human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum is auxotrophic for most amino acids. Its amino acid needs are met largely through the degradation of host erythrocyte hemoglobin; however the parasite must acquire isoleucine exogenously, because this ...
