A tetrapeptide sequence, Gly-Gly-(Gly/Ala)-Lys, containing a catalytically important lysyl residue, is highly conserved in NAD(P)+-dependent amino acid dehydrogenases. To elucidate functional roles of the glycyl residues in this conserved sequence Gly-77, Gly-78, and Gly-79 of the recombinant leucine dehydrogenase from

The inhibitory effect of branched chain amino acids on muscle protein breakdown has been attributed to the ketoanalogue of leucine, alpha-ketoisocaproic acid. In an attempt to demonstrate a possible dose-response relationship for ketoleucine, the postoperative protein breakdown (using urinary excretion

Immature caput epididymal sperm accumulate calcium from exogenous sources at a rate 2- to 4-fold greater than mature caudal sperm. Calcium accumulation by these cells, however, is maximal in the presence of lactate as external substrate. This stimulation of calcium

Lactate dehydrogenase C4 isoenzyme (LDH-C4) is involved in the energy metabolism of spermatozoa. Sperm capacitation is considered part of an oxidative process; an NADH oxidase of plasma membrane could be responsible for superoxide anion generation which is required for capacitation.
