Understanding the Relationships between Free Asparagine in Grain and Other Traits to Breed Low-Asparagine Wheat

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Since the discovery of acrylamide in food, and the identification of free asparagine as the key determinant of acrylamide concentration in wheat products, our understanding of how grain asparagine content is regulated has improved greatly.

Differential gene expression provides leads to environmentally regulated soybean seed protein content

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Soybean is an important global source of plant-based protein. A persistent trend has been observed over the past two decades that soybeans grown in western Canada have lower seed protein content than soybeans grown in eastern Canada.

Asparagine Synthetase Chemotherapy [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Biochemistry, 2006
Modern clinical treatments of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) employ enzyme-based methods for depletion of blood asparagine in combination with standard chemotherapeutic agents. Significant side effects can arise in these protocols and, in many cases, patients develop drug-resistant forms of the disease that may be correlated with up ...

Impact of Nitrogen and Sulfur Supply on the Potential of Acrylamide Formation in Organically and Conventionally Grown Winter Wheat

open access: yesAgronomy, 2018
In a two-year field trial, the effect of nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) fertilization was investigated on grain yield, grain quality parameters, formation of acrylamide (AA), and the precursor free asparagine (Asn) in organically and conventionally produced

Amino Acids As Mediators of Metabolic Cross Talk between Host and Pathogen

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
The interaction between host and pathogen decidedly shapes the outcome of an infection, thus understanding this interaction is critical to the treatment of a pathogen-induced infection.

Reducing the Risk of Acrylamide and Other Processing Contaminant Formation in Wheat Products

open access: yesFoods, 2023
Wheat is a staple crop, consumed worldwide as a major source of starch and protein. Global intake of wheat has increased in recent years, and overall, wheat is considered to be a healthy food, particularly when products are made from whole grains ...

Characterization of Three L-Asparaginases from Maritime Pine (Pinus pinaster Ait.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Asparaginases (ASPG, EC 3.5.1.1) catalyze the hydrolysis of the amide group of L-asparagine producing L-aspartate and ammonium. Three ASPG, PpASPG1, PpASPG2, and PpASPG3, have been identified in the transcriptome of maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Ait ...

Plasma Amino Acids in Horses Suffering from Pituitary Pars Intermedia Dysfunction

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction is one of the most common diseases of aged horses and ponies. In Parkinson’s disease, which is, similar to PPID, a disease that involves oxidative damage to dopaminergic pathways but with different clinical signs ...

Genetic Evolution and Molecular Selection of the HE Gene of Influenza C Virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Influenza C virus (ICV) was first identified in humans and swine, but recently also in cattle, indicating a wider host range and potential threat to both the livestock industry and public health than was originally anticipated.
