As autotrophic organisms, plants capture light energy to convert carbon dioxide into ATP, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), and sugars, which are essential for the biosynthesis of building blocks, storage, and growth.

Dipeptide Absorption in Cystinuria [PDF]
Absorption of a dipeptide and its constituent amino-acids has been studied by a perfusion technique in a patient with cystinuria and in a normal subject. Though the cystinuric patient was unable to absorb the dibasic amino-acid lysine in its free form, the dipeptide glycyl-L-lysine was well absorbed.

Dipeptide absorption in man [PDF]
A quantitative perfusion method has been used to study intestinal absorption of two dipeptides-glycyl-glycine and glycyl-l-alanine-in normal subjects. In each case, the constituent amino acids were absorbed faster when presented as dipeptides than as free amino acids, suggesting intact dipeptide transport. During absorption constituent amino acids were

Nearest-Neighbor Interactions and Their Influence on the Structural Aspects of Dipeptides
In this theoretical study, the role of the side chain moiety of C-terminal residue in influencing the structural and molecular properties of dipeptides is analyzed by considering a series of seven dipeptides.

Pathogenic determinants and mechanisms of ALS/FTD linked to hexanucleotide repeat expansions in the C9orf72 gene. [PDF]
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are two apparently distinct neurodegenerative diseases, the former characterized by selective loss of motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord and the latter characterized by ...

CRISPR-Cas9 screens in human cells and primary neurons identify modifiers of C9ORF72 dipeptide-repeat-protein toxicity. [PDF]
Hexanucleotide-repeat expansions in the C9ORF72 gene are the most common cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia (c9ALS/FTD).
