The three candidate biomarker proteins were the pyruvate kinase muscle isozyme (encoded by the PKM gene), the muscle isoform of glycogen phosphorylase (encoded by the PYGM gene), and myozenin 2 (encoded by the MYOZ2 gene). [38] An analysis of the environment of trigger points found the pH around active trigger points going down to pH 4.3.
It is caused by a different toxin, beta-aminopropionitrile, which affects the linking of the subunits of collagen, a major structural protein found in connective tissue. A third type of lathyrism is angiolathyrism, which is similar to osteolathyrism in its mechanism, employing the toxin beta-aminopropionitrile.
The T-2 toxin was an outbreak and made humans develop symptoms like food poisoning, chills, nausea, dizziness, etc. [38] The trichothecenes mycotoxin affects animals by decreasing plasma glucose, red blood cell and leukocyte counts. [38] Pathological changes in the liver and stomach, as well as weight loss has been accounted for. [38]

Ergotism (pron. / ˈ ɜːr ɡ ə t ˌ ɪ z ə m / UR-gət-iz-əm) is the effect of long-term ergot poisoning, traditionally due to the ingestion of the alkaloids produced by the Claviceps purpurea fungus—from the Latin clava "club" or clavus "nail" and -ceps for "head", i.e. the purple club-headed fungus—that infects rye and other cereals, and more recently by the action of a number of ...

The structure consists of a small triple-stranded beta-sheet stabilized by a disulfide knot, followed by a C-terminal extension comprising three classic or inverse y-turns. The disulfide knot is a ring consisting of two disulfide bonds (1-15 and 8-20) and the connecting backbone, through which a third disulfide bond (14-31) passes.
