Human hepatic N-acetylglutamate content and N-acetylglutamate synthase activity. Determination by stable isotope dilution.
N-Acetyl-L-glutamate (N-acetylglutamate) content and N-acetylglutamate synthase activity ranges were established in human liver tissue homogenates by stable isotope dilution. The methods employ N-[methyl-2H3]acetyl[15N]glutamate as internal standard, extraction of N-acetylglutamate by anion-exchange technique and its determination by g.l.c.-mass spectrometry by using selected ion monitoring. He...
متن کاملRadiometric assay of citrate condensing enzyme (citrate synthetase) in liver tissue and mitochondria.
Citrate synthetase activity was determined in samples of commercially available citrate condensing enzyme. We measured the amount of radioactive citrate formed from the condensation of carbon-14 labeled acetyl CoA and oxaloacetate. The labeled citrate was oxidized by oxidative bromination; 14C02 evolved was collected and represented the amount of citrate synthesized. Enzyme activity as low as 1...
متن کاملEffect of starvation on the N-acetylglutamate system of rat liver.
Rats fasted for 3 and 6 days showed an increase in the activity, per g of liver but not per total liver, of the mitochondrial urea cycle enzymes, carbamylphosphate synthetase and ornithine transcarbamylase. The activity of N-acetylglutamate synthetase, both per g and per total liver, increased by the third day and then decreased on the sixth day of fasting. The cytosolic enzyme N-acetyldeacylas...
متن کاملHuman carbamylphosphate synthetase I. Stabilization, purification, and partial characterization of the enzyme from human liver.
Carbamylphosphate synthetase I from human liver was stabilized, purified, and partially characterized. The labile enzyme was stabilized in cell-free extracts by the presence of MgATP and dithiothreitol at pH 7.8. The stabilized enzyme was purified by a rapid procedure consisting of ion exchange chromatograhy and electrofocusing The native molecular weight of the enzyme was determined by gel fil...
متن کاملApplication of a modified human enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit for diagnosis of hydatidosis in sheep
Cystic hydatid disease (hydatidosis) is one of the most important zoonosis that is caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus . As its diagnosis by clinical symptoms alone is difficult and confusing, serologic diagnostic techniques are used to confirm the disease. These techniques can also be used for epidemiologic studies. The present study was performed with a commercial human en...
