  <name>Cadaverine</name>
  <description>Cadaverine is a foul-smelling diamine formed by bacterial decarboxylation of lysine that occurs during protein hydrolysis during putrefaction of animal tissue. However, this diamine is not purely associated with putrefaction. It is also produced in small quantities by mammals. Cadaverine is toxic in large doses. In rats it had a low acute oral toxicity of more than 2000 mg/kg body weight (Wikipedia).</description>

      <name>Glutathione metabolism</name>
      <description>The biosynthesis of glutathione starts with the introduction of L-glutamic acid through either  a glutamate:sodium symporter, glutamate / aspartate : H+ symporter GltP or a 
glutamate / aspartate ABC transporter. Once in the cytoplasm, L-glutamice acid reacts with L-cysteine through an ATP glutamate-cysteine ligase resulting in gamma-glutamylcysteine. This compound reacts which Glycine through an ATP driven glutathione synthetase thus catabolizing Glutathione.
This compound is metabolized through a spontaneous reaction with an oxidized glutaredoxin resulting in a reduced glutaredoxin and an oxidized glutathione. This compound is reduced by a NADPH glutathione reductase resulting in a glutathione.

      <name>Lysine Degradation I</name>
      <description>
Under conditions of anaerobiosis and phosphate starvation (believed to reflect conditions in the gut), E. coli converts glucose to weak organic acids which, though they are excreted, can reenter the cell and cause bactericidal acid stress even at only moderately acidic pH. Acid resistance system 4 (AR4) is the lysine-dependent acid resistance system which allows for the survival of E. coli under these conditions when lysine is available. AR4 couples the transport activity of a lysine:cadaverine antiporter, CadB, with lysine decarboxylase, CadA. CadB functions by exchanging external lysine for internal cadaverine.
Lysine is imported into the cell through CadB or generated in the cell from aspartic acid. Within the cell, lysine is decarboxylated by CadA to cadaverine, releasing CO2 and replacing it with a proton. Cadaverine is then exported through CadB. This effectively consumes protons within the cytoplasm, raising the pH. The glutamate-dependent acid resistance system (AR2) is also able to provide acid resistance to E. coli growing under conditions of anaerobiosis and phosphate starvation, but to a slightly lesser degree than AR4 possibly due to the different pH optimums of their respective decarboxylase enzymes. AR2 is more efficient than AR3 or AR4 as a mediator of acid resistance at low pH.</description>

      <description>Polyamines are important for cell growth and are believed to be involved in many processes including DNA, RNA, and protein synthesis, as well as membrane integrity and resistance to stress, to name a few. Cadaverine and aminopropylcadaverine are alternative polyamines that can at least partially substitute for purtrescine and spermidine, the primary polyamines found in E. coli. Lysine is decarboxylated to form cadaverine which is then converted to aminopropylcadaverine by the aminopropyltransferase, SpeE. (EcoCyc)</description>
