, 2011). Based on whole-body nitrogen balance, Arg was traditionally classified as a nutritionally non-essential amino acid for infants and adult humans (Flynn et al., 2002). However, it is now known that besides serving as a building block for protein, Arg plays an essential role in the...
Summary Since the pioneering work of Rose who classified arginine as a non-essential amino acid, subsequent works have revealed that arginine can become an essential amino acid in stress situations. In septic rats, arginine-enriched nutrition (either enteral or parenteral) improves nitrogen balance ...
Abstract Escherichia coli DedA/Tvp38 family proteins YghB and YqjA are putative membrane transporters with 62% amino acid identity and overlapping functions. An E. coli strain with nonpolar ΔyghB and ΔyqjA mutations displays cell division defects and temperature sensitivity and is sensitive to an...
SR proteins are essential pre-mRNA splicing factors that have been shown to bind a number of exonic splicing enhancers where they function to stimulate the splicing of adjacent introns. Members of the SR protein family contain one or two N-terminal RNA binding domains, as well as a C-terminal...
Arginine is defined as a semi-essential amino acid, because under certain conditions, such as growth during infancy, pregnancy, severe immune challenge, or burn injuries [7,8]; humans require a supplemental intake of dietary arginine. Human adults are able to synthesize arginine from glutamine, ...
Furthermore, we found that Arg68 was also an essential residue for the interaction between Atg8 homologs and Atg4B in human. Mutation of Arg68 in human Atg8 family proteins would severely decrease their C-terminal cleavage efficiency, thus affecting their autophagic localization and autophagic flux...
ARGININE: Essential Element In Fish Nutrition, Health Arginine metabolites enchance animal growth and survival by effecting tissue repair, cell replication and collagen synthesis. Studies by the authors indicated dietary arginine supplementation may constitute an effective means of increasi... A Buentello...

Introduction: L-arginine is a conditionally essential amino acid that plays an important role in immune and vascular function in sepsis. Plasma concentrations of L-arginine are decreased after trauma or surgery but have been variably reported to be normal or decreased in patients with sepsis. Method...
