Tryptophan Biochemistry: Structural, Nutritional, Metabolic, and Medical Aspects in Humans

Journal of Amino Acids, 2016
L-Tryptophan is the unique protein amino acid (AA) bearing an indole ring: its biotransformation in living organisms contributes either to keeping this chemical group in cells and tissues or to breaking it, by generating in both cases a variety of ...

Rossmann-Fold Methyltransferases: Taking a "β-Turn" around Their Cofactor, S-Adenosylmethionine.

Biochemistry, 2018
Methyltransferases (MTases) are superfamilies of enzymes that catalyze the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), a nucleoside-based cofactor, to a wide variety of substrates such as DNA, RNA, proteins, small molecules, and lipids ...
