Research progress on branched-chain amino acid aminotransferases

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2023
Branched-chain amino acid aminotransferases, widely present in natural organisms, catalyze bidirectional amino transfer between branched-chain amino acids and branched-chain α-ketoacids in cells.

Production of d-Branched-Chain Amino Acids by Lactic Acid Bacteria Carrying Homologs to Isoleucine 2-Epimerase of Lactobacillus buchneri [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Isoleucine 2-epimerase (ILEP) is a novel branched-chain amino acid racemase isolated from Lactobacillus buchneri. In this study, we examined production of free d-branched-chain amino acids such as d-valine, d-leucine, and d-allo-isoleucine, using lactic ...

Norvaline is accumulated after a down-shift of oxygen in Escherichia coli W3110

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2008
Background Norvaline is an unusual non-proteinogenic branched-chain amino acid which has been of interest especially during the early enzymological studies on regulatory mutants of the branched-chain amino acid pathway in Serratia marcescens.
