Application


  • Exposure to synthesized tribromobisphenol A and critical effects: Metabolic pathways, disease signature, and benchmark dose derivation.: This study provides insight into the metabolic pathways and disease signatures associated with exposure to synthesized tribromobisphenol A, emphasizing the critical role of L-alanine in mediating these effects (Kuang et al., 2024).

  • Prenylated indole diketopiperazine alkaloids as phosphatase inhibitors from the marine-derived fungus Talaromyces purpureogenus.: Identifies new prenylated indole diketopiperazine alkaloids from Talaromyces purpureogenus that act as potent phosphatase inhibitors, with L-alanine being key to their structure and bioactivity, offering potential for drug development (Liang et al., 2024).

Errors in protein synthesis due to mispairing of amino acids with tRNAs jeopardize cell viability. Several checkpoints to prevent formation of Ala- and Cys-tRNA(Pro) have been described, including the Ala-specific editing domain (INS) of most bacterial prolyl-tRNA synthetases (ProRSs) and

Alzheimer's disease is characterized by the presence of cortical amyloid-beta (Aβ) protein plaques, which result from the sequential action of β-secretase and γ-secretase on amyloid precursor protein. Semagacestat is a small-molecule γ-secretase inhibitor that was developed as a potential treatment
