Phenylalanine is not used in soda pop.
However, Diet Soda pop may contain the artificial sweetener Aspartame . This compound, sold under the trade names "Equal" and "NutraSweet", is metabolized by the body into several chemical byproducts including phenylalanine.
The breakdown problems phenylketonurics have with protein and the attendant build up of phenylalanine in the body also occurs with the ingestion of aspartame, although to a lesser degree. Accordingly, all products in Australia, the U.S. and Canada that contain aspartame must be labeled: "Phenylketonurics: Contains phenylalanine." In the UK, foods containing aspartame must carry ingredient panels that refer to the presence of "aspartame or E951" and they must be labeled with a warning "Contains a source of phenylalanine." These warnings are specifically placed to aid individuals who suffer from PKU so that they can avoid such foods.
The enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase breaks down phenylalanine into tyrosine. This enzyme is essential for the conversion of phenylalanine to tyrosine in the body. Deficiency in this enzyme can lead to a build-up of phenylalanine, which can result in a condition called phenylketonuria (PKU).
Phenylalanine is a component in aspartame.
It has 718mg of phenylalanine.
No, it is simply put on packages and soda cans because there is a specific disease that can harm people if they ingest it. The disease is phenylketonuria, or PKU. It is a genetic disorder that keeps your body from metabolizing phenylalanine, which is an amino acid. If you have PKU and eat too much phenylalanine, it will cause mental retardation. NutraSweet has phenylalanine in it, so they don't want PKU sufferers to use it for obvious reasons. So...phenylalanine is okay for you if you don't have PKU.
Phenylalanine is a compound. Specifically it is 2-amino-3-phenylpropanoic acid.
The molecular formula for phenylalanine is C9H11NO2.
There are two codons that code for the amino acid phenylalanine: UUU and UUC.
Yes but instead of pepsi you should use coka cola
A Pepsi can does not have any Pepsi in it.A can of Pepsi does have Pepsi in it.

McDonalds
yup!
