It's a dogma taught in every introductory biology class: Proteins are composed of combinations of 20 different amino acids, arranged into diverse sequences like words. But researchers trying to ...
Elongation, a crucial step in the translation process of protein synthesis, gets disrupted by amino acid sequences with an abundance of N-terminal aspartic and glutamic acid residues in eukaryotic ...
Proteins are life’s molecular machines, built from amino acids whose sequences and side chains dictate their structure and function. From essential dietary amino acids to complex folding patterns, ...
Frederick Sanger presented the first complete amino acid sequence of a protein (insulin) after 12 years of painstaking biochemistry involving partial hydrolysis and proteolytic cleavage. Needless to ...
Amino Acids In Our Aquarium. A Data Analysis Review Scientists studying dissolved organic matter (DOM) in water use amino acid abundances to help identify its sources. Amino acid ratios help to determine how degraded this matter is, and in turn, informs about microbial activity. What can amino acid concentrations in our aquaria tell us?
Hey @Badger_Reefer! For your coral selection I think adding amino acids could definitely be beneficial. The softies will appreciate the dissolved organics and your goniopora in particular is known to respond well to amino supplementation. As for which aminos - Brightwell's Aminomarine and Polyp Lab's Reef-Roids are good go tos.
What is the most effective, non-refrigerated, Amino Acid supplement you have used specifically for nursing damaged coral tissue (e.g., frag healing/recession) while also supporting vibrant growth and color? Looking for the best budget per-dose option.
While I have made many positive changes to my aquarium so far, I’m always looking for more ways to improve coral health and growth, and one that I know many people use is amino acid dosing. I’m curious as to the benefits of doing so, aside from being another nutrient source for the corals.
