“The amino acids lysine, glycine, alanine , glutamate and aspartate formed adducts with galactose at physiological pH and temperature as shown by incorporation of U[14C] galactose.”

“Furthermore the passive absorption of galactose (measured in the presence of 2 mmol/L phloridzin) increases after alanine active transport, while it remains unmodified after sorbitol exposure.”
“It was found that changes to alanine in residues R102, W181, T191, and R224 resulted in significantly decreased binding affinities for D-galactonate , as determined by EMSA and MST assays.”
“When rats given D-galactosamine are then treated with the glucogenic amino acid alanine , their alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity, total bilirubin level, and survival rate improve compared with when other amino acids are used.”

“Mutation of S-699 to alanine significantly impairs GAL induction by galactose in GAL80+ cells but does not affect transcriptional activation by Gal4p in gal80- cells.”
