Beta Glucuronidase-rich Cytoplasmic Particles in Androgen-stimulated Mouse Kidney
Androgens produced by stimulating mouse testis with gonadotropic hormones cause a rise in renal beta-glucuronidase but not an increase in acid or alkaline phosphatase. All subcellular components increase in beta-glucuronidase activity, with a relatively greater increment in particulate enzyme as compared with that free in the cytoplasm (non-sedimentable). A small percentage of recovered beta-gl...
متن کاملPurification and Characterization of Mouse Kidney ,&Glucuronidase
P-Glucuronidase has been purified from mouse kidneys previously induced by gonadotrophin to a specific enzyme activity 15 times higher than the non-induced kidney. The purification procedure includes ultrasonication to solubilize the enzyme, acid and ammonium sulfate precipitations, gel filtration in Sephadex G-200, DEAE-ion exchange chromatography, and isoelectric focusing. The resulting produ...
متن کاملEsterase 22 and beta-glucuronidase hydrolyze retinoids in mouse liver.
Excess dietary vitamin A is esterified with fatty acids and stored in the form of retinyl ester (RE) predominantly in the liver. According to the requirements of the body, liver RE stores are hydrolyzed and retinol is delivered to peripheral tissues. The controlled mobilization of retinol ensures a constant supply of the body with the vitamin. Currently, the enzymes catalyzing liver RE hydrolys...
متن کاملEvolution of androgen-regulated mRNA expression in mouse kidney.
To gain information on the evolution of mammalian gene expression patterns, we studied the androgen-inducible expression of three kidney mRNAs in several mouse species (genus Mus). The RP2, ornithine decarboxylase, and beta-glucuronidase mRNAs have each evolved independently, in that the pattern of variation among species is unique for each. This suggests a role for gene-specific, cis-acting ge...
متن کاملAndrogen-regulated ornithine decarboxylase mRNAs of mouse kidney.
Ornithine decarboxylase, the first enzyme of the polyamine biosynthetic pathway, is induced by androgens in the mouse kidney. We have isolated from a kidney cDNA clone bank two plasmids, pODC1440 and pODC934 , that contain different cDNA inserts corresponding to ornithine decarboxylase mRNA. Identification was based upon the ability of plasmid-specific mRNAs to encode a 53,000-dalton polypeptid...
