Inhibition of Imidazoleacetate Phosphoribosyl Transferase
A B ST R A CT In man and other animals, urinary excretion of the histidine and histamine metabolite, imidazoleacetate, is increased and that of its conjugated metabolite, ribosylimidazoleacetate, decreased by salicylates. Imidazoleacetate has been reported to produce analgesia and narcosis. Its accumulation as a result of transferase inhibition could play a part in the therapeutic effects of sa...
متن کاملFast Chromatographic Method for Explosive Profiling
Security control is becoming a major global issue in strategic locations, such as airports, official buildings, and transit stations. The agencies responsible for public security need powerful and sensitive tools to detect warfare agents and explosives. Volatile signature detection is one of the fastest and easiest ways to achieve this task. However, explosive chemicals have low volatility maki...
متن کاملSpectrofluorimetric assay method for glutathione and glutathione transferase using monobromobimane
The primary role of glutathione transferase is to defend an organism from toxicities through catalyzing the reaction of glutathione (GSH) with potentially toxic compounds or metabolites to their chemically and biologically inert conjugates. The objective of the study was to develop a simple and sensitive spectrofluorimetric assay method for glutathione transferase using monobromobimane (MBB), a...
متن کاملHypoxanthine phosphoribosyl transferase deficiency, haematopoiesis and fertility in the mouse.
We have looked for effects of deficiency in hypoxanthine phosphoribosyl transferase (HPRT) in the mouse comparable to non-behavioural consequences of HPRT-deficiency in humans. HPRT-deficient humans show abnormalities in haematopoiesis and, in heterozygotes, there is strong selection in haematopoietic tissues against HPRT-deficient cells arising as a result of X-chromosome inactivation. We have...
متن کاملPlasma Hypoxanthine-Guanine Phosphoribosyl Transferase Activity in Bottlenose Dolphins Contributes to Avoiding Accumulation of Non-recyclable Purines
Marine mammals are exposed to ischemia/reperfusion and hypoxia/reoxygenation during diving. During oxygen deprivation, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) breakdown implies purine metabolite accumulation, which in humans is associated with pathological conditions. Purine recycling in seals increases in response to prolonged fasting and ischemia. Concentrations of metabolites and activities of key enzy...
