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).

We studied sodium-dependent uptake of L-alanine into small intestinal brush border membrane vesicles (BBMV) isolated from piglets 40 h after infection with transmissible gastroenteritis (TGE) virus. Vesicles from TGE-infected pigs and uninfected litter-mate controls showed comparable degrees of enrichment and

We anchored a colourimetric probe, comprising a complex containing copper (Cu(II)) and a dye, to a polymer matrix obtaining film-shaped chemosensors with induced selectivity toward glycine. This sensory material is exploited in the selectivity detection of glycine in complex mixtures
