How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

Recorded relationships

What acts on it

  1. Expression of the bovine PHM-only construct in HEK293 cells increased secreted PHM activity, demonstrating a functional hydroxylating domain separable from the PAL portion of PAM.

    Experimental context and source evidence
    cross_nutrient
    Vitamin C chemistry in collagen, modified-lysine/carnitine metabolism or copper-dependent peptide/catecholamine processing.
    experimental_model
    Purified bovine pituitary PAL and bovine-domain expression constructs in HEK293 cells
    exposure
    Purified PAL with N-acetyl-Tyr-Val-alpha-hydroxyglycine; PHM or PAL-containing constructs expressed in HEK293.
    limitations
    Bovine protein expressed in human cells is not a human PAM protein; domain construct activity does not quantify tissue hormone synthesis.
    nutrient_topic
    Vitamin C research collection; topical membership is not evidence of a direct dietary effect. · Vitamin C
    organism
    Bos taurus (protein); Homo sapiens (expression host)
    plain_language
    Peptide amidation begins with a separate vitamin-C-dependent hydroxylation step.
