Effects of Dietary N-Carbamylglutamate on Growth Performance, Apparent Digestibility, Nitrogen Metabolism and Plasma Metabolites of Fattening Holstein Bulls

Animals, 2021
N-carbamylglutamate (NCG), a structural analog of N-acetylglutamate, improves nitrogen utilization in dairy cows. However, the effects of NCG on bulls are unknown.

Next-Generation Sequencing for Determining the Effect of Arginine on Human Dental Biofilms Using an In Situ Model

Pharmacy, 2021
Oral biofilms are associated with caries, periodontal diseases, and systemic diseases. Generally, antimicrobial therapy is used as the first line of treatment for infectious diseases; however, bacteria in biofilms eventually develop antibiotic resistance.

Functional Characterization of Saccharomyces cerevisiae P5C Reductase, the Enzyme at the Converging Point of Proline and Arginine Metabolism

Microorganisms, 2022
The enzyme that, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, catalyzes the last step in both proline synthesis and arginine catabolism, δ1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C) reductase, was purified to near homogeneity and characterized thoroughly.

Antimicrobial activity, membrane interaction and structural features of short arginine-rich antimicrobial peptides

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Antimicrobial activity of many AMPs can be improved by lysine-to-arginine substitution due to a more favourable interaction of arginine guanidinium moiety with bacterial membranes.

I. Arginine

Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2002
L-Arginine (Arg) is classified as an essential amino acid for birds, carnivores and young mammals and a conditionally essential amino acid for adults. It is converted by arginase to L-ornithine, a precursor of polyamines and urea, which is important in the urea cycle.

On the Prediction of In Vitro Arginine Glycation of Short Peptides Using Artificial Neural Networks

Sensors, 2022
One of the hallmarks of diabetes is an increased modification of cellular proteins. The most prominent type of modification stems from the reaction of methylglyoxal with arginine and lysine residues, leading to structural and functional impairments of ...
