Purification and characterization of glutathione-dependent dehydroascorbate reductase from rat liver.
GSH-dependent enzymic reduction of dehydroascorbic acid to ascorbic acid has been studied in rat liver cytosol. After gel filtration of cytosol on Sephadex G-100 SF, dehydroascorbate reductase activity was recovered in two distinct peaks, one corresponding to glutaredoxin (an enzyme already known for its dehydroascorbate reductase activity) and another, much larger one, corresponding to a novel...
متن کاملActivation of human liver 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase by sulphobromophthalein
Human liver contains at least two isoenzymes (DD2 and DD4) of 3α-hydroxysteroid}dihydrodiol dehydrogenase. The NADP(H)-linked oxidoreductase activities of DD4 were activated more than 4-fold by sulphobromophthalein at concentrations above 20 μM and under physiological pH conditions. Sulphobromophthalein did not stimulate the activities of DD2 and human liver aldehyde reductase, which are functi...
متن کاملPurification and properties of NADPH-dependent aldehyde reductase from human liver.
An aldehyde reductase (EC 1.1.1.2) from human liver has been purified to homogeneity. The enzyme is NADPH-dependent, prefers aromatic to aliphatic aldehydes as substrates, and is inhibited by barbiturates and hydantoins. The following physicochemical parameters were determined: molecular weight, 36,200; sedimentation coefficient, 2.9 S; Stokes radius, 2.65 nm; isoelectric point, pH 5.3; extinct...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of S-phenacylglutathione reductase from rat liver.
An enzyme catalyzing the reduction of S-(2,4-dichlorophenacyl)glutathione to 2',4'-dichloroacetophenone was purified to apparent homogeneity by ion exchange, gel filtration, and hydroxylapatite chromatography from rat hepatic cytosol. The molecular weight was 30,000-37,000. The enzyme is distinct from the glutathione S-transferases, mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase, and glyoxalase I. Substrat...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of biliverdin reductase from rat liver.
Biliverdin reductase in a stable form was purified to homogeneity from rat liver cytosol. The purified enzyme showed 3700-fold increase in specific activity when compared with the crude preparation, and the extent of recovery was 30-35%. The molecular weight was estimated at 34,000-36,000. The amino acid analysis of the purified preparation revealed the presence of 3 cysteine residues/mol of en...
