Effects of tryptophan supplementation on plasma tryptophan and related hormone levels in heifers and dairy cows

, 2006
This study was conducted to investigate the effects of rumen-protected tryptophan (125g tryptophan per day) in heifers and dairy cows. Blood samples from dairy cows and heifers were collected for 24h in 3-h intervals on the day before tryptophan ...

The C‐terminal domain of yeast Arginyltransferase1 is essential for its catalytic activity

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Arginyltransferase 1 (Ate1), a eukaryotic enzyme, catalyses arginylation, transferring arginine from tRNA‐Arg to the amino terminus of the target protein. Overexpression of Ate1 in yeast is lethal and is dependent on arginylation. This study elucidates how mutations in the cofactor‐binding and active site of Ate1 and truncation of its structural ...

RNA Sequencing Resolves Cryptic Pathogenic Variants in Mitochondrial Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Mitochondrial diseases are the most common inherited metabolic disorders, characterized by pronounced clinical and genetic heterogeneity that complicates molecular diagnosis. Although DNA‐based sequencing approaches have become standard in genetic testing, up to half of patients remain without a definitive diagnosis.

Antibiofilm Activities of Tritrpticin Analogs Against Pathogenic Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA01 Strains

Molecules
In our previous work, we showed that short antimicrobial hexapeptides (AMPs) containing three Trp and three Arg residues had a potent antibiofilm activity against a pathogenic Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus MRSA strain.

DNA‐Templated 2D Heterostructures as Phototriggered Dynamic Nanohybrids: From Releasing Molecular Loads to Controlling Enzyme Biocatalytic Function

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
DNA strands are employed both as dynamic linkers and nanoscale templates for the integration of Ag2S nanoparticles on MoS2, which in turn imparted photothermal responsiveness; this feature permits the selective cargo (fluorophore, quantum dots or an enzyme) release from the MoS2 surface in response to local heat induced by light irradiation.

Effects of a commercial dose of L-tryptophan on plasma tryptophan concentrations and behaviour in horses

, 2008
Reasons for performing the study: L-tryptophan is a common ingredient in equine calmative products, but its effectiveness has not been demonstrated in horses.

Programming Nanoscale Reaction Environments via Peptide Localization for Gold Nanoparticle Growth in Liposomal Nanoreactors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The liposome nanoreactor method enables uniform metal nanoparticle synthesis using the interior as a reaction environment. We demonstrate that peptide sequences and lipid compositions act as a functional molecular switch to control reaction environments in liposome nanoreactors.

Tryptophan Metabolism in Alcoholism [PDF]

Nutrition Research Reviews, 1999
Studies of tryptophan (Trp) metabolism in relation to the serotonin status in alcoholism are of 2 types: (1) those related to the pharmacological effects of ethanol; (2) those concerning the serotonin status in the absence of alcohol intake. In experimental animals, acute and chronic ethanol administration and subsequent withdrawal exert a variety of ...
