alanine and Deficiency, Mental

alanine has been researched along with Deficiency, Mental in 37 studies

Alanine: A non-essential amino acid that occurs in high levels in its free state in plasma. It is produced from pyruvate by transamination. It is involved in sugar and acid metabolism, increases IMMUNITY, and provides energy for muscle tissue, BRAIN, and the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.
alanine : An alpha-amino acid that consists of propionic acid bearing an amino substituent at position 2.

"The Fragile X syndrome, a common form of mental retardation in humans, is caused by silencing the fragile X mental retardation (FMR1) gene leading to the absence of the encoded fragile X mental retardation protein 1 (FMRP)."1.31Alterations of amino acids and monoamine metabolism in male Fmr1 knockout mice: a putative animal model of the human fragile X mental retardation syndrome. ( Braun, K; Gruss, M, 2001)

Clinical, ultrastructural, biochemical and therapeutic studies in an infant. ( Bassewitz, DB; Dominick, HC; Gröbe, H; Pfeiffer, RA, 1975)
