L tyrosine

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in Spain, Germany

L-tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis and various metabolic processes. It serves as a building block for proteins and is involved in the production of neurotransmitters and hormones. As a lab equipment product, L-tyrosine can be used for research and analysis purposes in various scientific fields.

Amino Acid-Enriched Fish Feed Formulation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Commercial fish feed (L2 Alterna® Skretting, Burgos, Spain), with a size of 2.2 mm, was used as the control diet. L-phenylalanine and L-tyrosine (dry powder) were purchased from ThermoFisher (Kandel, Germany). The commercial control diet was finely ground and mixed with AA and later water (300 mL Kg–1 dry feed). The amount of phenylalanine and tyrosine in each experimental diet was 5% (on dry feed) except for the control diet which did not have any amino acid. The mixture was thread pelleted into 2 mm diameter and 20–25 cm length strips. These were cut to get 2–3 mm size pellets. Finally, these food strips were dried at 30°C for 48 h and stored at 4°C.
Analysis of AA was performed as reported previously (Herrera et al., 2020 (link); Salamanca et al., 2020 (link)). According to the above method, the final amino acid concentrations in the experimental diets are shown in Table 1.

Tyrosine and Calmodulin TRAST Measurements

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A stock solution of 160 µM of L-tyrosine in DPBS (ThermoFisher Scientific) was freshly prepared and further diluted to 20 µM for the TRAST measurements, with pH set to 7, or as stated in the text. All chemicals were purchased from Sigma Aldrich, if not stated otherwise. Deoxygenation experiments were performed in a sealed container, where the solution was bubbled with nitrogen gas for twenty minutes before measurements. During the experiment, a low flow of nitrogen was applied over the sample to avoid re-oxygenation.
Calmodulin (CaM, purified from bovine brain Lyophilized from 30 mM HEPES, 1 mM CaCl2, 0.1 mM DTT, pH 7.4), reconstituted to a stock concentration of 1.858 mg/mL, was subsequently diluted to 20 μM for measurements in 30 mM HEPES (pH 7.4). The 20 μM CaM solution was considered calcium-saturated (hereinafter denoted CaM-Ca2+), given that it was expected to contain approximately 180 μM Ca2+, as indicated by the provided lyophilization information from the supplier (Sigma Aldrich). To obtain a calcium-free calmodulin solution (hereinafter denoted CaM-w/o-Ca2+), an excess of EGTA (Ethyleneglycol- bis(β-aminoethyl)-N,N,Nʹ,Nʹ-tetraacetic Acid) was introduced to chelate all calcium ions, while approximately 200 μM of free EGTA remained in the solution.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
