Prebiotic Synthesis of Aspartate Using Life’s Metabolism as a Guide
Life, 2023 A protometabolic approach to the origins of life assumes that the conserved biochemistry of metabolism has direct continuity with prebiotic chemistry. One of the most important amino acids in modern biology is aspartic acid, serving as a nodal metabolite

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1969 Abstract The effect of pH on the relative distribution of pyridoxal structures in aqueous solution was examined by fluorescence spectroscopy. The hemiacetal structure, which is the predominant species at neutral pH, exhibits a symmetrical emission band at 378 mµ and is characterized by a quantum yield of 0.08.

Vitamin B6 Acquisition and Metabolism in Schistosoma mansoni
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Schistosomes are parasitic platyhelminths that currently infect >200 million people globally. The adult worms can live within the vasculature of their hosts for many years where they acquire all nutrients necessary for their survival and growth.

Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate is a slow tight binding inhibitor of E. coli pyridoxal kinase. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) is a cofactor for dozens of B(6) requiring enzymes. PLP reacts with apo-B(6) enzymes by forming an aldimine linkage with the ε-amino group of an active site lysine residue, thus yielding the catalytically active holo-B(6 ...
