11. Other than that, alanine biosynthesis does not seem to be regulated. 12. Alanine and lactate are major gluconeogenic precursors that enter gluconeogenesis as pyruvate.13. Aspergillomarasmine B differs in that the last alanine is replaced by glycine. 14. One will measure alanine aminotransferase, ALT for short, a liver enzyme. 15. Unlike its counterpart ?-alanine , ?-alanine has no stereocenter. 16. Unlike its counterpart ?-alanine, ?-alanine has no stereocenter. 17. Bacteria can have one ( alr gene ) or two alanine racemase genes. 18. This enzyme participates in alanine and aspartate metabolism and beta-alanine metabolism. 19. This enzyme participates in alanine and aspartate metabolism and beta-alanine metabolism. 20. This enzyme participates in alanine and aspartate metabolism and aminoacyl-trna biosynthesis.
