Metabolism and Physiological Effects of N-Acetylhistidine
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126711MetabolicThe human NatA complex co-translationally acetylates N-termini that bear a small amino acid (A, S, T, C, and occasionally V and G). … N-terminal acetylation of proteins is a widespread and highly conserved process in eukaryotes that is involved in protection and stability of proteins.
Drugs: HistidineMetabolism and Physiological Effects of Beta-Alanine
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126732MetabolicIt is a component of the naturally occurring peptides carnosine and anserine and also of pantothenic acid (vitamin B-5), which itself is a component of coenzyme A. … It is formed in vivo by the degradation of dihydrouracil and carnosine.
Metabolism and Physiological Effects of Indolelactic Acid
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126749MetabolicThe enzyme involved in indoleacetic acid production remains unknown, however, candidate genes in the genome include pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductases B and C (PorB, CLOSPO_02262; PorC, CLOSPO_03792). … Indolelactic acid (CAS: 1821-52-9) is a tryptophan metabolite found in human plasma, serum, and urine.

smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126760MetabolicWithin cells, SETD3 is found in the cytoplasm and nucleus. Other proteins that are known to have 1MH modifications include myosin and myosin kinase. … histidine-containing peptides (such as anserine and ophidine/balenine).
Metabolism and Physiological Effects of Vanillic Acid
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126881MetabolicIt is the intermediate product in the two-step bioconversion of ferulic acid to vanillin (J Biotechnol 1996;50(2-3):107-13). … Vanillic acid is a phenolic acid found in some forms of vanilla and many other plant extracts. It is a flavouring and scent agent that produces a pleasant, creamy odour.

smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000335SignalingHistamine is an organic nitrogenous compound that is involved in local immune responses and it is a neurotransmitter for brain. … Histamine can mediate various actions by interacting with histamine receptors (H1, H2, H3 and H4).
Metabolism and Physiological Effects of Indoxyl glucoside (indican)
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0124742MetabolicIt is also shown to cause vascular calcification and disrupt the electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation causing muscle atrophy. … Indoxyl glucoside (indican) is an indole compound that is formed through gut microbial metabolism from dietary tryptophan and a sulfation reaction in liver hepatic cells.
Metabolism and Phsyiological Effects of Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA)
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0124747MetabolicL-arginine is obtained from protein-rich foods like red meat, poultry, dairy and eggs. It is absorbed in the intestine to the blood. … This elevates blood pressure, causes vasoconstriction, impairs endothelium-dependent relaxation, and increases endothelial cell adhesiveness.
Metabolism and Physiological Effects of Symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA)
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0124764MetabolicL-arginine is obtained from protein-rich foods like red meat, poultry, dairy and eggs. It is absorbed in the intestine to the blood. … It enters cells in the body and is metabolized to SDMA via the enzyme protein arginine methyltransferase-5 or protein arginine methyltransferase-7.
