Asparagine (symbol Asn or N [2]) is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins.It contains an α-amino group (which is in the protonated −NH + 3 form under biological conditions), an α-carboxylic acid group (which is in the deprotonated −COO − form under biological conditions), and a side chain carboxamide, classifying it as a polar (at physiological pH), aliphatic ...
Potassium asparaginate is a potassium salt of L-asparagine amino acid. [2] [3] [4] [5]Potassium asparaginate can be considered both a salt and a coordination complex. [6] [3] As a salt, potassium asparaginate is formed when the potassium ion (K +) replaces the hydrogen ion (H +) in the carboxyl group of L-asparagine, an amino acid; in this process, the carboxyl group (–COOH) in L-asparagine ...

For example, a salt bridge was identified to exist in the T4 lysozyme between aspartic acid (Asp) at residue 70 and a histidine (His) at residue 31 (Figure 3). Site-directed mutagenesis with asparagine (Asn) (Figure 4) was done obtaining three new mutants: Asp70Asn His31 (Mutant 1), Asp70 His31Asn (Mutant 2), and Asp70Asn His31Asn (Double Mutant).
Many foods marketed as 'high-protein' may not be as healthy as they claim due to their high-fat, sodium, and sugar content, shows a study from Spain.
A good way to reduce the salt in food is to increase the acid, Rizzo says. “For instance, lemon or lime juice or vinegar adds a pungent taste and, as a result, you do not need as much salt to ...
Deamidation is a chemical reaction in which an amide functional group in the side chain of the amino acids asparagine or glutamine is removed or converted to another functional group. Typically, asparagine is converted to aspartic acid or isoaspartic acid. Glutamine is converted to glutamic acid or pyroglutamic acid (5-oxoproline).
The US Food and Drug Administration has finalized new standards that foods must meet before they can be labeled as “healthy.”. Requirements now include limits on saturated fat, sodium and ...
