2. Branched-chain amino acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branched-chain_amino_acid

   A branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) is an amino acid having an aliphatic side-chain with a branch (a central carbon atom bound to three or more carbon atoms). Among the proteinogenic amino acids, there are three BCAAs: leucine, isoleucine, and valine. [1] Non-proteinogenic BCAAs include 2-aminoisobutyric acid and alloisoleucine. Leucine ...

3. Branched Chain Amino Acid Exporter (LIV-E) Family - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branched_Chain_Amino_Acid...

   In Corynebacterium glutamicum, BrnFE exports branched chain amino acids isoleucine, leucine, and valine, as well as methionine and homoserine. [3] [5] [8] The greatest induction of BrnFE expression occurs under high methionine concentrations, suggesting that methionine may actually be the native substrate rather than a branched-chain amino acid ...

4. Branched-chain amino acid aminotransferase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branched-chain_amino_acid...

   The BCAT enzyme catalyzes the conversion of BCAAs and α-ketoglutarate into branched chain α-keto acids and glutamate. The structure to the right of branched chain amino acid aminotransferase was found using X-ray diffraction with a resolution of 2.20 Å. The branched-chain amino acid aminotransferase found in this image was isolated from ...

5. APC superfamily - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APC_Superfamily

   The amino acid-polyamine-organocation (APC) superfamily is the second largest superfamily of secondary carrier proteins currently known, [1] and it contains several Solute carriers. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Originally, the APC superfamily consisted of subfamilies under the transporter classification number (TC # 2.A.3 ).

7. Branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase complex

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branched-chain_alpha-keto...

   In animal tissue, BCKDC catalyzes an irreversible step [2] in the catabolism of the branched-chain amino acids L-isoleucine, L-valine, and L-leucine, acting on their deaminated derivatives (L-alpha-keto-beta-methylvalerate, alpha-ketoisovalerate, and alpha-ketoisocaproate, respectively) and converting them [3] to α-Methylbutyryl-CoA, Isobutyryl-CoA and Isovaleryl-CoA respectively.
