An enzyme-coupled colorimetric assay for S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methyltransferases.
We report here an enzyme-coupled colorimetric assay for salicylic acid carboxyl methyltransferase (SAMT), which utilizes S-adenosyl-l-methionine (AdoMet or SAM) as the methyl donor. In this assay, S-adenosyl-l-homocysteine (AdoHcy or SAH), a common product of AdoMet-dependent transmethylation reactions, is first hydrolyzed by recombinant AdoHcy nucleosidase (EC 3.2.2.9) into adenine and S-ribos...
متن کاملStructural basis for substrate activation and regulation by cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) domains in cystathionine {beta}-synthase.
The catalytic potential for H(2)S biogenesis and homocysteine clearance converge at the active site of cystathionine β-synthase (CBS), a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme. CBS catalyzes β-replacement reactions of either serine or cysteine by homocysteine to give cystathionine and water or H(2)S, respectively. In this study, high-resolution structures of the full-length enzyme from Drosophila...
متن کاملHomocystinuria due to cystathionine beta synthase deficiency.
A two year-old male child presented with cutis marmorata congenita universalis, brittle hair, mild mental retardation, and finger spasms. Biochemical findings include increased levels of homocysteine in the blood-106.62 micromol/L (normal levels: 5.90-16 micromol/L). Biochemical tests such as the silver nitroprusside and nitroprusside tests were positive suggesting homocystinuria. The patient w...
متن کاملA novel automatable enzyme-coupled colorimetric assay for endo-1,4-β-glucanase (cellulase)
endo-1,4-β-Glucanase (endo-cellulase, EC 3.2.1.4) is one of the most widely used enzymes in industry. Despite its importance, improved methods for the rapid, selective, quantitative assay of this enzyme have been slow to emerge. In 2014, a novel enzyme-coupled assay that addressed many of the limitations of the existing assay methodology was reported. This involved the use of a bifunctional sub...
متن کاملBilateral internal carotid artery dissection in cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency.
1 1.05 and arched palate. Neither skin abnormalities nor hyperextensible joints were found. She was treated with aspirin at 250 mg daily. Three days later, she suddenly became comatose and was transferred to the neurological intensive care unit for respiratory assistance. Her Glasgow Coma Scale rated 6, she presented with spastic tetraparesis. Cerebral CT scan, Doppler sonography and cerebral M...
