| hydronium ion | |
| NADH | |
| 1,5-dihydro-fad | chromophore component of E coli DNA photolyase |
| aspartic acid | One of the non-essential amino acids commonly occurring in the L-form. It is found in animals and plants, especially in sugar cane and sugar beets. It may be a neurotransmitter. |
| tryptophan | An essential amino acid that is necessary for normal growth in infants and for NITROGEN balance in adults. It is a precursor of INDOLE ALKALOIDS in plants. It is a precursor of SEROTONIN (hence its use as an antidepressant and sleep aid). It can be a precursor to NIACIN, albeit inefficiently, in mammals. |
| flavin-adenine dinucleotide | A condensation product of riboflavin and adenosine diphosphate. The coenzyme of various aerobic dehydrogenases, e.g., D-amino acid oxidase and L-amino acid oxidase. (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p972) |
| 2-amino-4-(2-aminoethoxy)butanoic acid, (DL)-isomer | |
| glutaryl-coenzyme a | |
| alpha-hydroxyglutarate, (l)-isomer | |
| 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme a | RN given refers to cpd without isomeric designation |
| 2-aminoadipic acid | A metabolite in the principal biochemical pathway of lysine. It antagonizes neuroexcitatory activity modulated by the glutamate receptor, N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE; (NMDA). |
| alpha-ketoglutaric acid | |
| glutaconic acid | RN given refers to parent cpd without isomeric designation; structure |
| D-2-hydroxyglutarate | |
| NAD | A coenzyme composed of ribosylnicotinamide 5'-diphosphate coupled to adenosine 5'-phosphate by pyrophosphate linkage. It is found widely in nature and is involved in numerous enzymatic reactions in which it serves as an electron carrier by being alternately oxidized (NAD+) and reduced (NADH). (Dorland, 27th ed) |
| alpha-ketoadipic acid | |
| glutaric acid | RN given refers to parent cpd |
| endolysin | |
| 3-hydroxyglutaric acid | |
| acetyl coenzyme a | Acetyl CoA participates in the biosynthesis of fatty acids and sterols, in the oxidation of fatty acids and in the metabolism of many amino acids. It also acts as a biological acetylating agent. |
| glutaconyl-coenzyme A | |
| n-acetylaspartic acid | |
| coenzyme a | |
