Application


  • Engineering mutually orthogonal PylRS/tRNA pairs for dual encoding of functional histidine analogues.: Exploring innovative genetic engineering techniques, this research advances the use of histidine analogues like 3-Methyl-L-histidine for producing novel proteins with enhanced functionalities, offering vast potential in therapeutic and industrial applications (Taylor et al., 2023).

  • Improving the enzymatic activity of l-amino acid α-ligase for imidazole dipeptide production by site-directed mutagenesis.: This investigation enhances the enzymatic synthesis of imidazole dipeptides, crucial for understanding the role of modifications like those seen in 3-Methyl-L-histidine and its impact on biological activities (Kino et al., 2023).

Biochem/physiol Actions

3-Methyl-L-histidine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid and an index of muscle breakdown.

Despite several decades of active research, the success of large-scale clinical trials involving antioxidants remains equivocal given the complex biological interactions of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species in human health. Herein, we outline a differential metabolomics strategy by capillary electrophoresis-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry
