Loss or mutation of YggS/PROSC protein, a pyridoxal phosphate (PLP)-binding protein, disrupts a wide variety of metabolic systems, especially amino acid and vitamin B6 metabolism. This study has demonstrated that the YggS/PPROSC protein plays an important role in the homeostasis of vitamin B6, especially pyridoxine phosphate (PNP), in various organisms. In E. coli, the abnormal accumulation of PNP inhibits the glycine cleavage system and various metabolic pathways, including amino acid metabolism. The present study suggests that the YggS/PROSC protein may be involved in the conversion process between PLP and pyridoxamine phosphate (PMP).

We analyzed the catalytic and regulatory mechanisms of D-Asp synthetic activity of mammalian serine racemase (SR). Data inidicaed that SR is one of mammalian D-Asp biosynthetic enzymes. In addition, we analyzed urinary D-Ser using our D-, and L-Ser enzymatic assay method. The results obtained here suggested that D-Ser levels could be used as a predictable biomarker of renal function reduction in some situations. In addition, we studied the molecular mechanism of developmental abnormalities of Dsd-deficient Dicsyotelium strains and revealed the involvment of D-Ser in cAMP signaling. We found a novel Dsd substrate D-amino acid in the fruiting body of Bunashimeji mushroom, and identified it as (2R, 3S) 2-amino-3,4-dihydroxybutanoic acid.
