N3-Haloacetyl derivatives of L-2,3-diaminopropanoic acid, novel glutamine analogs, were shown to be strong inhibitors of glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase from bacteria and Candida albicans. The inhibition was competitive with respect to glutamine and non-competitive with respect to D-fructose-6-phosphate. In the absence of glutamine, the tested compounds inactivated glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase from C. albicans with Kinact = 0.5 microM, 0.55 microM and 18.5 microM for bromoacetyl-, iodoacetyl- and chloroacetyl derivatives of L-2,3-diaminopropanoic acid, respectively. The inactivation obeyed the criteria for active site-directed modification.

D005973 Glutamine A non-essential amino acid present abundantly throughout the body and is involved in many metabolic processes. It is synthesized from GLUTAMIC ACID and AMMONIA. It is the principal carrier of NITROGEN in the body and is an important energy source for many cells. D-Glutamine,L-Glutamine,D Glutamine,L Glutamine
D001667 Binding, Competitive The interaction of two or more substrates or ligands with the same binding site. The displacement of one by the other is used in quantitative and selective affinity measurements. Competitive Binding
D015091 beta-Alanine An amino acid formed in vivo by the degradation of dihydrouracil and carnosine. Since neuronal uptake and neuronal receptor sensitivity to beta-alanine have been demonstrated, the compound may be a false transmitter replacing GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID. A rare genetic disorder, hyper-beta-alaninemia, has been reported. 3-Aminopropionic Acid,beta-Alanine Hydrochloride,beta-Alanine, Calcium Salt (2:1),beta-Alanine, Monopotassium Salt,beta-Alanine, Monosodium Salt,3 Aminopropionic Acid,Hydrochloride, beta-Alanine,beta Alanine,beta Alanine Hydrochloride,beta Alanine, Monopotassium Salt,beta Alanine, Monosodium Salt
