    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaminopimelic_acid

    Diaminopimelic acid (DAP) is an amino acid, representing an epsilon-carboxy derivative of lysine. meso -α,ε-Diaminopimelic acid is the last intermediate in the biosynthesis of lysine and undergoes decarboxylation by diaminopimelate decarboxylase to give the final product.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N-Acetylmuramic_acid

    N-Acetylmuramic acid (NAM or MurNAc) is an organic compound with the chemical formula C 11 H 19 NO 8. It is a monomer of peptidoglycan in most bacterial cell walls, which is built from alternating units of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) and N-acetylmuramic acid, cross-linked by oligopeptides at the lactic acid residue of MurNAc.

    Comparable to phosphorylation, addition or removal of N-acetylglucosamine is a means of activating or deactivating enzymes or transcription factors. [4] In fact, O-GlcNAcylation and phosphorylation often compete for the same serine/threonine sites. [4] O-GlcNAcylation most often occurs on chromatin proteins, and is often seen as a response to ...

    The proton is released into solution, while the reductant RH 2 is oxidized and NAD + reduced to NADH by transfer of the hydride to the nicotinamide ring. RH 2 + NAD + → NADH + H + + R; From the hydride electron pair, one electron is attracted to the slightly more electronegative atom of the nicotinamide ring of NAD +, becoming part of the ...

    The term phylum was coined in 1866 by Ernst Haeckel from the Greek phylon (φῦλον, "race, stock"), related to phyle (φυλή, "tribe, clan"). [4] [5] Haeckel noted that species constantly evolved into new species that seemed to retain few consistent features among themselves and therefore few features that distinguished them as a group ("a self-contained unity"): "perhaps such a real and ...
