[2] [3] They are ancient in animal evolution and appear to possess a highly conserved structure throughout all kingdoms of life. [2] Chemically, sirtuins are a class of proteins that possess either mono- ADP-ribosyltransferase or deacylase activity, including deacetylase, desuccinylase , demalonylase , demyristoylase and depalmitoylase activity.
There are usually 2 alpha subunits and 3 other beta, gamma, or delta subunits (some consist of 5 alpha subunits). The name of the family refers to a characteristic loop formed by 13 highly conserved amino acids between two cysteine (Cys) residues, which form a disulfide bond [1] near the N-terminal extracellular domain.
ADDA ((all-S,all-E)-3-amino-9-methoxy-2,6,8-trimethyl-10-phenyldeca-4,6-dienoic acid) is a non-proteinogenic amino acid found in toxins made by cyanobacteria. Toxins which include this amino acid include microcystins [1] and nodularins. Along with leucine and arginine, it is found in microcystin-LR, an extremely toxic compound produced by ...
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.

Kainic acid is a potent neuroexcitatory amino acid agonist that acts by activating receptors for glutamate, the principal excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. Glutamate is produced by the cell's metabolic processes and there are four major classifications of glutamate receptors : NMDA receptors, AMPA receptors, kainate ...
