She is one of a few characters who played a major part in the original cause of the Trojan War itself: not only did she offer Helen of Troy to Paris, but the abduction was accomplished when Paris, seeing Helen for the first time, was inflamed with desire to have her — which is Aphrodite's realm.

In 1806, the French chemists Louis-Nicolas Vauquelin and Pierre Jean Robiquet isolated a compound in asparagus that was subsequently named asparagine, the first amino acid to be discovered.

Cysteine is unusual since it has a sulfur atom at the second position in its side-chain, which has a larger atomic mass than the groups attached to the first carbon, which is attached to the α-carbon in the other standard amino acids, thus the ( R ) instead of ( S ).

In such situations, the kidneys release renin, which acts as an enzyme and cuts off all but the first 10 amino acid residues of angiotensinogen ( a protein made in the liver, and which circulates in the blood ).

It is first hydrolyzed into its component amino acids.

Linus Pauling was the first to identify the 3. 6 amino acids per helix turn ratio of the α helix.

* The first step is the condensation of three amino acids —-α-aminoadipic acid ,-cysteine ,-valine into a tripeptide.

Key enzymes that synthesize certain amino acids are not present in animals — such as aspartokinase, which catalyzes the first step in the synthesis of lysine, methionine, and threonine from aspartate.

In the first step of peptidoglycan synthesis, the glutamine, which is an amino acid, donates an amino group to a sugar, fructose 6-phosphate.

The SRC Homology 3 Domain ( or SH3 domain ) is a small protein domain of about 60 amino acids residues first identified as a conserved sequence in the viral adaptor protein v-Crk and the non-catalytic parts of enzymes such as phospholipase and several cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases such as Abl and Src.

# The first way is post translational modification of the amino acids that make up histone proteins.

* ALS inhibitors: the acetolactate synthase ( ALS ) enzyme ( also known as acetohydroxyacid synthase, or AHAS ) is the first step in the synthesis of the branched-chain amino acids ( valine, leucine, and isoleucine ).

ACTH consists of 39 amino acids, the first 13 of which ( counting from the N-terminus ) may be cleaved to form α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone ( α-MSH ).

If nitrate is absorbed, it is first reduced to nitrite ions and then ammonium ions for incorporation into amino acids, nucleic acids, and chlorophyll.

The right-hand species may undergo divergent evolution | divergent, parallel, or convergent evolution at this amino acid position relative to that of the first species.

ADH was also one of the first oligomeric enzymes that had its amino acid sequence and three dimensional structure determined.

In 1806, working with asparagus, he and Pierre Jean Robiquet ( future discoverer of the famous red dye alizarin, then a young chemist and his assistant ) isolated the amino acid asparagine, the first one to be discovered.
