Postprandial Changes of Free Amino Acids in the Rumen Fluid of Steers Fed with or without Monensin

The distribution and the relaxation times of water in tomato fruits were measured by ¹H-NMR imaging with a resolution of 0.2 × 0.2 mm² area and 1 mm thickness. Water with a long relaxation time was preferentially accumulated in seeds and seed envelopes in immature green fruit. The total amount of water increased in mature red fruit, where water with a long relaxation time was localized in outer walls of the pericarp and water with a shorter relaxation time was distributed throughout all tissues except for seeds and seed envelopes. ¹ H-NMR imaging apparently distinguished the physiological variations among different types of tissues and the physiological changes during maturation of tomato fruit.     

Stimulatory and Inhibitory Actions of Proteins and Amino Acids On Copper-Catalysed Free Radical Generation in the Bulk Phase

The effect of a variety of proteins and amino acids was investigated on oxygen free radical activity as assessed by copper/hydrogen peroxide induced benzoate hydroxylation as well as copper-catalysed ascor-bate autoxidation. Serum albumins from a variety of species (human, bovine and dog) had both inhibitory and stimulatory effects depending on the molar copper to protein ratio; low ratios were inhibitory and high stimulatory. Some other proteins tested (lysozyme, soybean trypsin inhibitor and conalbumin) also had dual (inhibitory and stimulatory) effects, as did both histidine and polyhistidine, but all effects occurred at different molar ratios presumably dependent on the relative affinities for the copper ions. In contrast, metallolhioncin and cacruloplasmin, proteins specialised to bind copper in vivo had no stimulatory effects. In this paper we show that in addition to their fairly well documented inhibitory effects, under certain conditions some proteins also stimulate radical reactions. The possible role of this phenomenon in vivo is discussed.

Free Radicals Developed in the Amino-Garbonyl Reaction of Sugars with Amino Acids

GA_l5, GA₃, GA₅, GA₁₉, GA₂₀ and GA₂₃ were identified by GC-MS in the acidic ethyl acetate-soluble fraction from the seeds of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas Lam.). GA₁₉ and GA₂₃ were major GAs in the mature seeds, their contents being about 200 and 160 μg/kg fresh weight, respectively, while those of GA₁₉ and GA₂₃ in immature seeds were below 100 μg/kg fr. wt. The occurrence of glycosyl conjugates of GA₃, GA₅, GA₈, GA₁₇, GA₁₉, GA₂₀, GA₂₃ and GA₄₄ in the butanol fraction from mature seeds was shown by GC/MS analysis after enzymatic hydrolysis.

Besides the endogenous GAs in sweet potato, those in immature seeds of several other Convolvulaceae plants were investigated. The species of endogenous GAs were discussed in terms of chemotaxonomy.     

Plasma Amino Acids in Dogs with Osteochondrosis or Hip Dysplasia

Radiography of the hip joints of mature dogs has shown that hip dysplasia is quite common in many middle and large size breeds in Norway. The heritability of hip dysplasia has been estimated in several studies to be between 0.2 and 0.6 (Hedhammar et al 1979). This indicates that environmental factors are important for development and severity of hip dysplasia.

iSulf-Cys: Prediction of S-sulfenylation Sites in Proteins with Physicochemical Properties of Amino Acids

Cysteine S-sulfenylation is an important post-translational modification (PTM) in proteins, and provides redox regulation of protein functions. Bioinformatics and structural analyses indicated that S-sulfenylation could impact many biological and functional categories and had distinct structural features. However, major limitations for identifying cysteine S-sulfenylation were expensive and low-throughout. In view of this situation, the establishment of a useful computational method and the development of an efficient predictor are highly desired. In this study, a predictor iSulf-Cys which incorporated 14 kinds of physicochemical properties of amino acids was proposed. With the 10-fold cross-validation, the value of area under the curve (AUC) was 0.7155 ± 0.0085, MCC 0.3122 ± 0.0144 on the training dataset for 20 times. iSulf-Cys also showed satisfying performance in the independent testing dataset with AUC 0.7343 and MCC 0.3315. Features which were constructed from physicochemical properties and position were carefully analyzed. Meanwhile, a user-friendly web-server for iSulf-Cys is accessible at http://app.aporc.org/iSulf-Cys/.

Change in Free Amino Acids and Phospholipids in the Head of Adult Sarcophaga peregrina with Age

Abstract. The amino acid and phospholipid contents in the head of adult Sarcophaga peregrina (flesh-fly) were measured with age. Only aspartic acid was found to increase significantly with aging. A significant difference was also detected in the fatty acid composition of the phospholipids. Phospholipids isolated from old flies contained more unsaturated fatty acid than young flies, suggesting that the properties of the membrane of head cells change with age. These changes were observed irrespective of sex or rearing conditions. Thus, it is possible that certain metabolic pathways in post-mitotic cells are selectively affected by aging.

Seasonal Dynamics of Nitrogenous Compounds in a Nitrophilic Weed II. The Role of Free Amino Acids and Proteins as Nitrogen Store in Urtica dioica

The free amino acid fraction, representing the most importantnitrogen store in the overwintering below ground plant partsof Urtica dioica, consisted mainly (up to 80%) of asparagineand arginine. While asparagine was dominant in rhizomes, upto one year old, argrnine was specifically accumulated in theolder rhizomes and roots. In spring first the nitrogen storedin asparagine and with a delay of about three weeks that inarginine was mobilized and translocated to the rapidly growingshoots. Proteins may function as nitrogen store too, in particularin the case of the seeds. In the below ground organs, however,a special storage protein, rich in amides and/or arginine, whichwould correspond to the large quantities of these amino acidsin the overwintering organs, could not be detected.

Formation of a Precursor of the Free Radical Species in the Reaction of Dehydroascorbic Acid with Amino Acids

A precursor of a known long life free radical species which gives a triplet ESR signal was detected among the reaction products of dehydroascorbic acid and amino acids. Experimentally, this compound was transformed to the radical species by dilution with 1: 1 pyridinewater or some buffer solutions of pH 5~7. The yield of the precursor was significantly improved by the addition of ascorbic acid to the reaction system.
