The degradation of L-lysine in guinea pig liver homogenate: formation of alpha-aminoadipic acid [PDF]
A summary of the little that is known of the metabolism of lysine in animals is as follows: it is indispensable in the diet, its α-amino group does not participate in reversible transamination reaction in vivo (2), neither the L nor D form is attacked by

Biomimetic Mineralization of Keratin Scaffolds for Enamel Regeneration
Keratin‐based films guide biomimetic enamel remineralization by promoting organized hydroxyapatite growth under physiological conditions. Advanced biophysical characterization confirms keratin's structural adaptability and mineral ions‐binding affinity, supporting mineral nucleation and hierarchical crystal assembly. This study establishes keratin as a

Chromium (III) complexes and their relationship to the glucose tolerance factor : a thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Chemistry at Massey University [PDF]
Two forms of the dinicotinate complex Cr(nic)2(H2O)3OH were formed which were yellow and blue, respectively. For the yellow form the nicotinic acid ligands were coordinated via the pyridine ring nitrogen atom but this complex was biologically inactive ...

An Ultrapotent, Ultraeconomical, Antifreeze Polypeptide
Simple and inexpensive polypeptides composed of random copolymers of alanine and glutamic acid are effective antifreezes for applications in foods and biomedicine. The polypeptides, inspired by natural extremophile proteins, inhibit the growth of large ice crystals and prevent damage to sensitive biologics.

Designing the Next Generation of Biomaterials through Nanoengineering
Nanoengineering enables precise control over biomaterial interactions with living systems by tuning surface energy, defects, porosity, and crystallinity. This review highlights how these nanoscale design parameters drive advances in regenerative medicine, drug delivery, bioprinting, biosensing, and bioimaging, while outlining key translational ...

Optimization of macromolecular prodrugs of the antitumor antibiotic adriamycin [PDF]
In our earlier work [10] on aminoribosyl-bound prodrugs of adriamycin (ADR) using poly(α-l-glutamic acid) (PGA) grafted in high yield (90–100 mol.%) with various peptide spacers as a plasma-soluble macromolecular carrier we observed rather low cytotoxic ...
