Mutation of aspartic acid 262 on estrogen receptor abrogates estradiol signaling pathway

open access: yesGynecological Endocrinology, 2023
Objective ERα (estrogen receptor alpha) exerts nuclear genomic actions and membrane-initiated non-genomic effects. The mutation of aspartic acid into alanine in vitro revealed the critical role of aspartic acid 258 (corresponding to mouse amino acid site

The role of aspartic acid in reducing coral calcification under ocean acidification conditions

open access: yes, 2020
Biomolecules play key roles in regulating the precipitation of CaCO3 biominerals but their response to ocean acidification is poorly understood. We analysed the skeletal intracrystalline amino acids of massive, tropical Porites spp.

Sarcopenia and aspartic acid magnesium

open access: yesJournal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2015
Sarcopenia from aging, inactivity, weightlessness, disease and malnutrition causes social problems due to associated physical dysfunction, a decrease in QOL, and risk of death.

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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 ...

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Establishing an assay to evaluate d‐amino acid oxidase enzyme kinetics and inhibition using WST‐8 redox dye

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study investigated a novel WST‐8‐based assay for evaluating d‐Amino acid oxidase (DAO) inhibitors. We confirmed its effectiveness using known inhibitors and found that uremic toxins possess relatively weak inhibitory activity compared to existing drugs.

‐Aspartic Acid

open access: yes, 1994
L-Aspartic acid by successive N-tosylation, anhydride formation, and reduction was converted into (3S)-3-(tosylamino)butano-4-lactone (4). Electrophilic methylation of 4, subsequent iodo-esterification and nucleophilic methylation, followed by ...
