Transport and utilization of arginine and arginine-containing peptides by rat alveolar macrophages
… pepT1-like transporter for the uptake of small arginine-containing peptides (ACPs) and utilized these peptides as direct substrates for nitric oxide (NO) production.;Method. A HPLC assay was developed for quantitative measurement of Arg and ACPs in rat plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) …

The post-translational methylation of arginine in the glycine arginine rich region of CHO nucleoin
… Nucleolin contains a conserved glycine arginine rich (GAR) domain near its carboxy terminus. GAR domains are defined by repeating tri-peptide, (arginine -glycine-glycine (RGG)) motifs. The arginine in the RGG motif is post-translationally modified by dimethylation on one of the two …

The effects of oral arginine supplementation on growth hormone, arginine, and somatomedin levels during energy restriction in male weight lifters
… lifters were used to study the effect of oral arginine consumption on growth hormone (hGH) , arginine (Arg), and somatomedin (IGF-1) concentrations. Subjects were randomly assigned to treatment or placebo groups. Following a week of controlled exercise and diet, fasted subjects took either an …

Discovery of novel pathways of microbial arginine biosynthesis
The amino acid L-arginine is an essential component of all living organisms. Its importance resides in the variety of functions that arginine itself, along with some intermediary metabolites involved in its de novo synthesis in the cell. In many prokaryotes, fungi, and plants the de novo …

Anion-induced zwitterion formation in gas-phase arginine
… of the zwitterionic structure of gas-phase arginine by simple anions in the gas-phase. Mass spectrometry (MS) experiments conducted in a quadrupole ion trap (QIT) are presented. In these experiments, the loss of ammonia as opposed to water from the Br-•Arg cluster suggests that the arginine …

Understanding Allosteric Arginine Mutations Using Macromolecular Rate Theory
… This thesis explores the effects of allosteric arginine mutations on the temperature dependence of enzyme rates through the lens of MMRT and evolution using the model enzyme MalL. An in-depth analysis of a previously characterised arginine mutant is described along with four additional arginine …

Regulation of The Candida Albicans Arginine Biosynthetic Pathway
… are not observed, with the only exception of arginine biosynthesis. The strong upregulation of the arginine biosynthetic (<em>ARG</em>) genes suggests their importancefor <em>C. albicans </em>virulence.</p> <p>Using single cell reporters I have shown that the (<em>ARG</em>) genes are induced …

L-arginine overproduction in Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032
… and L-threonine. With the exception of Larginine, the biosynthesis and regulation of most of these compounds in this bacterium are relatively well characterised in the literature. The research presented here focuses on improving our understanding of the regulation of L-arginine …

The influence of arginine upon growth and tissue repair
Growth is a fundamental property of living matter. It depends upon the reception of an appropriate stimulus by a potentially reactive cell, under conditions which permit this to respond.

The elderly, arginine vasopressin & selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors
… This dissertation will explore the physiology of Arginine V asopressin and how changes in this system along with other physiological changes in the elderly make the elderly susceptible to hyponatraemia. This problem will then be explored in the context of elderly people with depression using SSRis …

IMPACT OF L-ARGININE TRANSPORTATION ON MYELOID-DERIVED SUPPRESSOR CELL FUNCTION
… MDSC suppressive activity is the metabolism of L-Arginine (L-Arg) by Arginase 1 (ARG1) and nitric oxide synthase 2 (NOS2). Therefore, we hypothesized that restricting MDSC uptake of L-Arg is a critical control point to modulate their suppressor activity. To this end, we have identified the …
