Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

A significant negative correlation was found between TRP level and the concentration of urea and creatinine.
We found a significant negative correlation between TRP and serum concentration of urea and creatinine as well as a positive correlation with GFR.

Injection with urea led to an apparent reduction in endogenous ammonia production, a significant decrease in the hepatic arginine content, and a significantly lower level of brain tryptophan in this lungfish.

Partially denaturing concentrations of urea eliminate the native-state quenching of intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence, from the single protein tryptophan, but the fluorescence emission spectrum is not red-shifted like the unfolded state, and the protein retains substantial secondary structure.

Urea at low concentrations (1-4 M) quenches markedly the Trp 108 fluorescence around pH 7; the gamma max, however, remained unaltered.

Acrylamide quenching experiments further validated the above findings, as solvent accessibility of tryptophan residues increased with increase in GdHCl and urea concentration.
