Continuous Spectrophotometric Assay for β - Glucuronidase
A continuous spectrophotometric assay has been developed for detecting β-glucuronidase activity. In the assay, Para-nitrophenyl β-D-glucuronide is cleaved to yield a chromophoric product. With the commercial E. coli enzyme, it is demonstrated that the reactions can be continuously monitored by the increase of absorbance at 405 nm. The method is highly sensitive and able to detect less than 1.4 ...
متن کاملContinuous enzyme-coupled assay of phosphate- or pyrophosphate-releasing enzymes.
A coupled enzyme assay able to monitor the kinetics of reactions catalyzed by phosphate- or pyrophosphate-releasing enzymes is presented here. The assay is based on the concerted action of inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase), purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNPase), and xanthine oxidase (XOD). In the presence of phosphate, PNPase catalyzes the phosphorolysis of inosine, generating hypoxanthine, ...
متن کاملA coupled NAD+-peroxidase spectrophotometric assay for cholesterol.
We describe a modified enzymic reagent for determination of cholesterol and cholesterol ester in serum and in high-density lipoprotein. In this new procedure, the hydrogen peroxide produced by the action of cholesterol oxidase is used as a substrate for NAD+ peroxidase. Spectrophotometric determination of the NADH consumed in this coupled reaction provides a direct and absolute measure of the c...
متن کاملCharacterization of a spectrophotometric assay for angiotensin converting enzyme.
Although serum angiotensin converting enzyme (EC 3.4.15.1) activity has generally been shown to be increased in patients with sarcoidosis, considerable variation in the diagnostic usefulness of this test has been reported. We investigated the possibility that this variation may be the result of inhibition of the widely used spectrophotometric assay by various substances. We also prospectively e...
متن کاملA continuous spectrophotometric assay for mitogen-activated protein kinase kinases.
We describe a convenient and simple continuous spectrophotometric method for the determination of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase activity with its protein substrate. The assay relies on the measurement of phosphoprotein product generated in the first step of the MAPK kinase reaction. Dephosphorylation of the phosphoprotein is coupled to a MAPK phosphatase to generate phosphate, ...
