Biochem/physiol Actions
Homoarginine is an inhibitor of tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNALP). It is also an inhibitor of cellular transport of arginine by a sodium-independent high affinity y+ transporter.
Application
L-Homoarginine may be used to create non-natural proteins for studies of post-translational protein modifications. Arginine residues are often located at the active centers of proteins and enzymes. Replacing these arginines with homoarginine can elucidate protein function and structural requirements. L-Homoarginine is used to study the mechanisms of nitric oxide production by cells via nitric oxide synthase(s). L-Homoarginine is used as a selective mammalian alkaline phosphatase isoenzyme inhibitor. The substitution of homoarginine for arginine or lysine renders proteins resistant to proteolysis by trypsin.

Recently we showed that homoarginine supplementation confers kidney protection in diabetic mouse models. In this study we tested whether the protective effect of homoarginine is nitric oxide synthase-3 (NOS3)-independent in diabetic nephropathy (DN). Experiments were conducted in NOS3 deficient (NOS3-/-

Our objective was to characterize the modulation of the activity of Saccharomyces cerevisiae alkaline phosphatases (ALPs) by classic inhibitors of ALP activity, cholesterol and steroid hormones, in order to identify catalytic similarities between yeast and mammalian ALPs. S. cerevisiae expresses

Contribution of nitric-oxide (NO) pathway to the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma (asthma) is ambiguous as NO may confer both protective and detrimental effects depending on the NO synthase (NOS) isoforms, tissue compartments and underlying pathological conditions (e.g. systemic inflammation). Asymmetric

Background Homoarginine ( hA rg) has been shown to be cardioprotective in a model of ischemic heart failure; however, the mechanism remains unknown. hA rg can inhibit tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase ( TNAP ), an enzyme that promotes vascular calcification. We
