Metabolism and Physiological Effects of Tiglylglycine
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126840MetabolicTiglylglycine is an intermediate product of the catabolism of isoleucine. … An elevated level of tiglylglycine is identified in urine of patients with beta-ketothiolase deficiency or with disorders of propionate metabolism.
Metabolism and Physiological Effects of Citrulline
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126861MetabolicOrnithine transcarbamoylase (OTC) or OCT (EC 2.1. 3.3) is an enzyme that catalyzes the reaction of citrulline formation from l-ornithine and carbamoyl phosphate. … In particular, citrulline can be biosynthesized from carbamoyl phosphate and ornithine which is catalyzed by the enzyme ornithine carbamoyltransferase.

Metabolism and Physiological Effects of Xanthosine
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0124866MetabolicXanthosine is formed from purine catabolism. Purines can be made endogenously in the body or can be obtained exogenously from foods such as red meat. The purines are guanine and adenine. … Xanthine is formed from hypoxanthine using the enzyme xanthine dehydrogenase/ oxidase. Xanthine can also be formed from the purine guanine via guanine deaminase.
