2. Lysine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysine

   Lysine (symbol Lys or K) [2] is an α-amino acid that is a precursor to many proteins.Lysine contains an α-amino group (which is in the protonated −NH + 3 form when the lysine is dissolved in water at physiological pH), an α-carboxylic acid group (which is in the deprotonated −COO − form when the lysine is dissolved in water at physiological pH), and a side chain (CH 2) 4 NH 2 (which ...

3. α-Aminoadipate pathway - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Α-aminoadipate_pathway

   The amino acid L-lysine. The α-aminoadipate pathway is a biochemical pathway for the synthesis of the amino acid L-lysine.In the eukaryotes, this pathway is unique to several species of yeast, higher fungi (containing chitin in their cell walls), and the euglenids.

4. Hydroxylysine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroxylysine

   Hydroxylysine (Hyl) is an amino acid with the molecular formula C 6 H 14 N 2 O 3.It was first discovered in 1921 by Donald Van Slyke as the 5-hydroxylysine form. [1] It arises from a post-translational hydroxy modification of lysine.

5. Lysine exporter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysine_Exporter

   LysE appears to catalyze unidirectional efflux of L-lysine (and other basic amino acids such as L-arginine), and it provides the sole route for L-lysine excretion. The energy source is believed to be the proton motive force (H + antiport). The E. coli ArgO homologue (TC# 2.A.75.1.2) effluxes arginine and possibly lysine and canavanine as well. [5]

6. Polylysine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polylysine

   α-Polylysine is a synthetic polymer, which can be composed of either L-lysine or D-lysine. "L" and "D" refer to the chirality at lysine's central carbon. This results in poly-L-lysine (PLL) and poly-D-lysine (PDL) respectively. [1] ε-Polylysine (ε-poly-L-lysine, EPL) is typically produced as a homopolypeptide of approximately 25–30 L ...

7. Essential amino acids in plant food - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essential_amino_acids_in...

   In case of humans there are 9 EAAs: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine. [1] EAAs are provided in both animal and plant-based food. The EAAs in plants vary greatly due to the vast variation in the plant world and, in general, plants have much lower content of proteins than animal ...
