Host’s demand for essential amino acids is compensated by an extracellular bacterial symbiont in a hemipteran insect model

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Plant sap is a nutritionally unbalanced diet that constitutes a challenge for insects that feed exclusively on it. Sap-sucking hemipteran insects generally overcome this challenge by harboring beneficial microorganisms in their specialized symbiotic ...

BCAA catabolism in brown fat controls energy homeostasis through SLC25A44. [PDF]

, 2019
Branched-chain amino acid (BCAA; valine, leucine and isoleucine) supplementation is often beneficial to energy expenditure; however, increased circulating levels of BCAA are linked to obesity and diabetes.

Branched-Chain Amino Acids and Immunity , [PDF]

The Journal of Nutrition, 2006
Although there has been great interest in the effects of amino acids on immune function, little is known about the impact of changes in BCAA availability on the ability of the immune system to function. Human immune cells incorporate BCAA into proteins and are able to oxidize BCAA.

A pilot, short-term dietary manipulation of branched chain amino acids has modest influence on fasting levels of branched chain amino acids

Food & Nutrition Research, 2016
Background: Elevated fasting levels of branched chain amino acids (BCAAs: valine, isoleucine, leucine) in venous blood are associated with a variety of metabolic impairments, including increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Branch chain amino acid and melanogenesis [PDF]

Immunopharmacology and Immunotoxicology, 2011
Sir, the recent publication on branch chain amino acid (BCAA) and melanogenesis is very interesting. Cha et al. report that “a complex of BCAAs inhibited melanin production without changes in intercellular tyrosinase activity,” and they propose further that “the complex of BCAAs may be used in the development of safe potential depigmenting agents ...

Dataset describing the amino acid catabolism of Thermoanaerobacter pseudethanolicus

Data in Brief
The dataset depicts the catabolism of branched-chain amino acids by Thermoanaerobacter pseudethanolicus in the presence of thiosulfate under different culture conditions. The results reveal that the strain can degrade all three branched-chain amino acids
