The physiological alpha-oxoaldehyde methylglyoxal binds and modifies arginine, lysine, and cysteine residues in proteins. The kinetics and mechanism of these reactions were investigated with N alpha-acetylamino acids and bovine serum albumin at pH 7.4 and 37 degrees C. The reaction

Tissue accumulation of arginine (Arg), N-acetylarginine (NA), argininic acid (AA) and homoarginine (HA) occurs in hyperargininemia, an inborn error of the urea cycle. In the present study, we investigated the in vitro effects of Arg, NA, AA and HA on

Serum levels of twelve guanidino compounds (GCs) and nerve conduction velocities were determined in a dialyzed renal insufficient pediatric population. Two dialytic groups were considered: one subjected to hemodialysis (HD, 11 patients) and one subjected to continuous cycle peritoneal dialysis

The paucity of hyperammonemic crises together with spasticity, only seen in human arginase I deficient patients and not in patients with other urea cycle disorders, forces a search for candidates other than ammonia to associate with the pathophysiology and symptomatology.
