MPTAC Determines APP Fragmentation via Sensing Sulfur Amino Acid Catabolism

Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: Metabolic disorder has been suggested to underlie Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the decisive molecular linkages remain unclear. We discovered that human Molybdopterin Synthase Associating Complex, MPTAC, promotes sulfur amino acid ...

Tailoring Amine Substitution in Fluorene and Dibenzothiophene: A Molecular Strategy for Ultralong Organic Phosphorescence

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Tailored amine substitution in fluorene and dibenzothiophene derivatives enables systematic control of excited‐state properties and triplet population. Combined photophysical studies, TD‐DFT calculations and time‐resolved EPR reveal how charge‐transfer character, sulfur‐induced spin–orbit coupling and triplet manifold engineering cooperate to promote ...

Stabilized Carbon‐Centered Radical‐Mediated Carbosulfenylation of Styrenes: Modular Synthesis of Sulfur‐Containing Glycine and Peptide Derivatives

Advanced Science
Sulfur‐containing amino acids and peptides play critical roles in organisms. Thiol‐ene reactions between the thiol residues of L‐cysteine and the alkenyl fragments in the designed coupling partners serve as primary tools for constructing C─S bonds in the

Methionine to cystine ratio in the total sulfur amino acid requirements and sulfur amino acid metabolism using labelled amino acid approach for broilers

BMC Veterinary Research, 2018
BackgroundAssuming that part of Methionine (Met) is converted into Cystine (Cys), but ignoring the rates with which such phenomenon occurs may lead to an excessive supply of Met in poultry diets.

Cross Kingdom Metabolic Engineering Paradigm Elevating Sustainable Protein Production

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Confronting the dual crisis of escalating global protein demand and unsustainable agriculture necessitates transformative solutions. Here, we pioneer evolutionary insights from maize nitrogen optimization via asparagine synthetase (ASNS) to rewire metabolism in Pichia pastoris.

Antioxidant Effects of Sulfur-Containing Amino Acids

Yonsei Medical Journal, 2004
Sulfur is an essential element for the entire biological kingdom because of its incorporation into amino acids, proteins and other biomolecules. Sulfur atoms are also important in the iron-containing flavoenzymes. Unlike humans, plants can use inorganic sulfur to synthesize sulfur-containing amino acids.

Chiral Nanoparticles Suppress Inflammatory Infiltration to Promote Extracellular Matrix Remodeling for Ectopia Lentis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
L‐cysteine‐configured chiral polyurethane nanoparticles suppress ocular inflammation and reduce extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation in ectopia lentis by regulating macrophages polarization and inhibiting nuclear factor kappa B signaling pathway. By promoting zonular fiber‐associated protein restoration and tissue repair, this minimally invasive ...

Enzymatic Synthesis of Amino Acids Endcapped Polycaprolactone: A Green Route Towards Functional Polyesters

Molecules, 2018
ε-caprolactone (CL) has been enzymatically polymerized using α-amino acids based on sulfur (methionine and cysteine) as (co-)initiators and immobilized lipase B of Candida antarctica (CALB) as biocatalyst.

Requirement of the Laying Hen for Sulfur Amino Acids

Poultry Science, 1994
Two experiments with individually caged laying hens were conducted to determine the requirement for TSAA. In Experiment 1, the corn-soybean basal diet contained .48% TSAA to which increasing dose levels of DL-methionine were added providing at the highest supplemental level .645% TSAA. The experimental diets were fed for 12 wk, covering the early stage
