Application

N-(4-Aminobenzoyl)-L-glutamic acid (ABG) is used as a strong UV absorbing tag for the derivitization of oligosaccharides to enhance their detection in analytical methods such as capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE).

Biochem/physiol Actions

N-p-Aminobenzoyl)-L-glutamic acid is a folate catabolite that can be metabolized by bacterial p-aminobenzoate auxotrophs possessing the enzyme p-aminobenzoyl-glutamate hydrolase.

A charged and strongly UV-absorbing tag, N-(4-aminobenzoyl)-L-glutamic acid) (ABG), was coupled to oligosaccharides by reductive amination under mild conditions. The effectiveness of ABG as a derivatization agent is shown through the separation of isomaltooligosaccharides from a dextran hydrolysate. The minimum

The proteolytic turnover of mitochondrial proteins is poorly understood. Here, we used a combination of dynamic isotope labeling and mass spectrometry to gain a global overview of mitochondrial protein turnover in yeast cells. Intriguingly, we found an exceptionally high turnover

New stable isotope dilution assays were developed for the simultaneous quantitation of the folates 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid, 5-formyltetrahydrofolic acid, tetrahydrofolic acid, 10-formylfolic acid, and folic acid as well as for their catabolites para-aminobenzoylglutamate (pABG) and acetyl-para-aminobenzoylglutamate (ApABG) in clinical samples.

Folate turnover involves urinary excretion, fecal excretion, and catabolism that involves cleavage of the C9-N10 bond to yield pterins and para-aminobenzoylglutamate (pABG). Little is known about the relationship between the function of folate pools and their rates of catabolism. We

The major route of folate turnover is by catabolic cleavage of the C9-N10 bond producing p-aminobenzoylglutamate (pABG) and its primary excretory form, p-acetamidobenzoylglutamate (ApABG). We hypothesize that total pABG (ApABG + pABG) excretion parallels both the mass of body folate
