Term
Beta-Alanine Metabolism
Definition
these dipeptides are found in protein rich foods such as chicken, beef, pork and fish. beta-alanine can also be formed in the liver from the catabolism of pyrimidine nucleotides which are broken down into uracil and dihydrouracil and then metabolized into beta-alanine and beta-aminoisobutyrate.
