In yeast, roundworms, and fruitflies, sir2 is the name of one of the sirtuin-type proteins (see table below). [16] Mammals possess seven sirtuins (SIRT1–7) that occupy different subcellular compartments: SIRT1, SIRT6 and SIRT7 are predominantly in the nucleus, SIRT2 in the cytoplasm, and SIRT3, SIRT4 and SIRT5 in the mitochondria.

Serine (symbol Ser or S) [3] [4] 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), a carboxyl group (which is in the deprotonated − COO −
In more than thirty species tested in one study, 34 of the 104 amino acids were conserved (identical at their characteristic position). [11] For example, human cytochrome oxidase reacted with wheat cytochrome c, in vitro; which held true for all pairs of species tested. [11] In addition, the redox potential of +0.25 volts is the same in all ...
Pleckstrin homology domain (PH domain) or (PHIP) is a protein domain of approximately 120 amino acids that occurs in a wide range of proteins involved in intracellular signaling or as constituents of the cytoskeleton.
Apamin selectively blocks SK channels, a type of Ca 2+-activated K + channel expressed in the central nervous system. Toxicity is caused by only a few amino acids, in particular cysteine 1, lysine 4, arginine 13, arginine 14 and histidine 18. These amino acids are involved in the binding of apamin to the Ca 2+-activated K + channel.
Amino acids with the structure NH + 3 −CXY−CXY−CO − 2, such as β-alanine, a component of carnosine and a few other peptides, are β-amino acids. Ones with the structure NH + 3 −CXY−CXY−CXY−CO − 2 are γ-amino acids, and so on, where X and Y are two substituents (one of which is normally H). [7]
In addition to the common amino acid L-tyrosine, which is the para isomer (para-tyr, p-tyr or 4-hydroxyphenylalanine), there are two additional regioisomers, namely meta-tyrosine (also known as 3-hydroxyphenylalanine, L-m-tyrosine, and m-tyr) and ortho-tyrosine (o-tyr or 2-hydroxyphenylalanine), that occur in nature.
