Peptide-based biomaterials. Linking l -tyrosine and poly l -tyrosine to graphene oxide nanoribbons
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015-03-31)
Peptide-based biomaterials are being studied actively in a variety of applications in materials science and biointerface engineering. Likewise, there has been ongoing exploration over the last few decades into the potential ...
Fabrication of a novel enzymatic electrochemical biosensor for determination of tyrosine in some food samples
(Elsevier Science, 2018-06)
In this work, fabrication of a novel and ultrasensitive electrochemical biosensor based on immobilization oftyrosine hydroxylase onto palladium-platinum bimetallic alloy nanoparticles/chitosan-1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ...
Oxidation of tyrosine: Antioxidant mechanism of L-DOPA disclosed
(Elsevier Science Inc., 2021-03)
Tyrosine is an amino acid related to crucial physiological events and its oxidation, that produce beneficial or detrimental effects on biological systems, has been extensively studied. Degradation of tyrosine often begins ...
Tyrosine oxidation and nitration in transmembrane peptides is connected to lipid peroxidation
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2017-05)
Tyrosine nitration is an oxidative post-translational modification that can occur in proteins associated to hydrophobic bio-structures such as membranes and lipoproteins. In this work, we have studied tyrosine nitration ...
Short-term effects of endothelins on tyrosine hydroxylase activity and expression in the olfactory bulb of normotensive rats
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2009-05)
The olfactory system in rats is part of the limbic region with extensive afferent connections with brain areas involved in the regulation of behaviour and autonomic responses. The existence of the endothelin system and ...
Dorsal root ganglion neurons and tyrosine hydroxylase: An intriguing association with implications for sensation and pain
(Elsevier Science, 2016-02)
Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) is a rate-limiting enzyme broadly expressed in noradrenergic and dopaminergic neurons in the central nervous system.57,70 Tyrosine hydroxylase is also expressed by peripheral sympathetic neurons98 ...
Concomitant tumor resistance: The role of tyrosine isomers in the mechanisms of metastases control
(American Association for Cancer Research, 2012-03)
Concomitant tumor resistance (CR) is a phenomenon in which a tumor-bearing host is resistant to the growth of secondary tumor implants and metastasis. Although previous studies indicated that T-cell-dependent processes ...
Human sperm subpopulations: relationship between functional quality and protein tyrosine phosphorylation
(European Society of Human Reproduction and Embriology, 2004-12)
Human semen is composed of a heterogeneous population of sperm with varying degrees of structural and functional differentiation and normality, which result in subpopulations of different quality.
Using a discontinuous ...
An ACTH-activated protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) is modulated by PKA-mediated phosphorylation
(Taylor, 2000-11)
In adrenal cortex, ACTH regulation of steroidogenesis depends on PKA-dependent serine/threonine phosphorylation and also on the activity of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs). In addition, ACTH increases total PTPs ...
