  1. Excitatory amino-acid transporter

    Excitatory amino acid transporters EAATs , also known as glutamate transporters , belong to the family of neurotransmitter transporter s. Glutamic acid Glutamate is the principal excitatory neurotransmitter in the vertebrate brain. EAATs serve to terminate the excitatory signal by removal uptake of glutamic acid glutamate from the neuronal synapse into neuroglia and neurons . The EAATs are membrane bound secondary transporters that superficially resemble ion channel s. ref name Ganel and Rothstein cite book author Ganel R, Rothstein JD editor Monyer, Hannah Gabriel A.

  1. Photo-reactive amino acid analog

    Photo reactive amino acid analogs are artificial analogs of natural amino acids that can be used for crosslinking of protein complexes. ref cite journal author Suchanek, M., Radzikowska, A., and Thiele, C. date 2005 title Photo leucine and photo methionine allow identification of protein protein interactions in living cells journal Nature Methods volume 2 pmid 15782218 pages 261 268 doi 10.1038 nmeth752 issue 4 ref Photo reactive amino acid analogs may be incorporated into proteins and peptides in vivo or in vitro . Photo reactive amino acid analogs in common use are Photochemistry photoreactive diazirine analogs to leucine and methionine , and p benzoylphenylalanine. Upon exposure to ultraviolet light , they are activated and covalently bind to interacting proteins that are within a few angstrom s of the photo reactive amino acid analog. L Photo Leucine and L Photo Methionine are analogs of the naturally occurring L Leucine and L Methionine amino acids that are endogenously incorporated into the primary sequence of proteins during synthesis using the normal translation machinery. They are then ultraviolet light UV activated to covalently crosslink proteins within protein protein interaction domains in their native in vivo environment. The method enables the determination and characterization of both stable and transient protein interactions in cells without the addition of chemical crosslinkers and associated solvents that can adversely affect the cell biology being studied in the experiment. When used in combination with limiting media that is devoid of leucine and methionine, the photo activatable derivatives are treated like naturally occurring amino acids by the cellular protein synthesis machinery. As a result, they can be substituted for leucine or methionine in the primary structure of proteins. Photo leucine and photo methionine derivatives contain diazirine rings that are activated when exposed to UV light to become reactive intermediates that form covalent ...   more details
