Guest guest Posted September 4, 2003 Report Share Posted September 4, 2003 Well, I'm in south Texas but still up. :^) Without knowing the context there is no way of helping with your question. Is this a lab value, procedure or diagnosis? What is the patient being seen for? Quixote lab question > > > Can't quiet hear this one. s/l ABGT > > I know it is late!

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2003 Report Share Posted September 4, 2003 p-Aminobenzoyl-glutamate Transporter (AbgT) Family The AbgT family consists of a single functionally characterized protein, the AbgT (YdaH) protein of E. coli (Hussein et al., 1998). This protein is apparently cryptic in wild type cells, but when expressed on a high copy number plasmid, or when expressed at higher levels due to mutation, it allows utilization of p-aminobenzoyl-glutamate as a source of p-aminobenzoate for p-aminobenzoate auxotrophs. p-Aminobenzoate is a constituent of and a precursor for the biosynthesis of folic acid. AbgT is 510 amino acyl residues long and has 12-13 putative transmembrane ?-helical spanners (TMSs). It is distantly related to members of the Ion Transporter (IT) superfamily (Rabus et al., 1999). The abgT gene is preceded by two genes, abgA and abgB, which code for homologous amino acyl amino hydrolases. Because of the structural similarity of p-aminobenzoyl-glutatmate to peptides, and the enzymatic activities of the abgA and abgB gene products, it is possible that AbgT is a peptide transporter. Although the mechanism of energy coupling has not been established, an H+ symport mechanism is inferred. lab question Can't quiet hear this one. s/l ABGT I know it is late! Hopefully someone will still be up on the west coast! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2003 Report Share Posted September 4, 2003 http://tcdb.ucsd.edu/tcdb/tcfamilybrowse.php?tcname=2.A.68 I just did a Google search on ABGT and it was the third or so site listed. lab question > > > > > Can't quiet hear this one. s/l ABGT > > I know it is late!

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2003 Report Share Posted September 4, 2003 Wow, thanks Diane. I looked for this trying to answer 's question and found nothing. Where did you find this?

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2003 Report Share Posted September 4, 2003 I have been looking and cannot find it in LTHB. Please let me know if you have better luck. aloha, Pam ----- Original Message ----- > I need to look closer in my Laboratory Test Handbook and see if this really > is in there or not.

Guest guest Posted September 5, 2003 Report Share Posted September 5, 2003 Hi Sylvia, s & DeMott Laboratory Test Handbook from Lexi-Comp I never was able to locate ABGt in there, but I have always been able to find everything else. It really has been a life saver for those obscure lab tests.
