The ATP-regulated potassium (KATP) channel plays an essential role in the control of insulin release from the pancreatic beta-cell. In the present study we have used the patch-clamp technique to study the direct effects of alpha-ketoisocaproate on the KATP channel

A wind tunnel bioassay and video to observe mosquitoes landing on heated glass cylinders were used to test sweat and some derivatives for responses of Anopheles gambiae Giles (Diptera: Culicidae), a highly anthropophilic African species of malaria vector. Filter papers

Whole cell extracts of culture epimastigotes of Trypanosoma cruzi (Tulahuén strain) have alpha-hydroxyacid dehydrogenase activity which catalyzes the NAD-linked reaction alpha-ketoacid in equilibrium with alpha-hydroxyacid, with a variety of substrates. Two molecular forms of the enzyme have been separated by
Threonine 246 is an active site residue that is conserved in all known L-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH; EC 1.1.1.27) sequences. In order to investigate the role of Thr246 in Bacillus stearothermophilus LDH, this residue was altered by site-directed mutagenesis to valine
The effect of the bacteriocin lacticin 3147 on the branched-chain amino acid transamination by Lactococcus lactis IFPL359 was investigated. The bacteriocin provokes membrane permeabilisation of the cells, rendering them non-viable but metabolically active. Free diffusion of amino acids into the
