Caffeine is a natural stimulant in your body. Drinking sodas, coffee, tea or energy drinks when you have a UTI can stimulate your digestive and urinary tract -- not a good idea when your goal is to soothe instead. Caffeine-containing beverages like coffee also can have a dehydrating effect as well.
Deamination is the removal of an amine group from a molecule. Enzymes that catalyse this reaction are called deaminases. In the human body, deamination takes place primarily in the liver, however glutamate is also deaminated in the kidneys. Deamination is the process by which amino acids are broken down if there is an excess of protein intake. The amino group is removed from the amino acid and converted to ammonia. The rest of the amino acid is made up of mostly carbon and hydrogen, and is recycled or oxidized for energy.
Transamination. The transfer of an amino group from one molecule to another without the intermediate formation of ammonia.Enzymatic reactions of this type play a prominent role in the formation and ultimate breakdown of amino acids by living organisms.he enzymatic transamination reaction, which was discovered in 1937 by the Soviet biochemists A. E. Braunshtein and M. G. Kritsman, is an important link in the process of synthesis and deamination of many amino acids in animals, plants, and microorganisms.
