Studies on Avian Xanthine Dehydrogenases

Studies on Avian Viral Infections in Iran

Inheritance of phosphogluconate and xanthine dehydrogenases in Aedes (Finlaya) togoi.

Phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (PGD) and xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) were genetically studied by agar gel electrophoresis in the mosquito Aedes togoi. Adult homogenates displayed banding patterns with one zone of activity of either enzyme. Eight backcrosses were conducted to map the two loci, Pgd and Xdh, to linkage group III with the following arrangement: Pgd--(ca. 15 map units)--bl (bleache...

Studies on xanthine oxidase during carcinogenesis by p-dimethylaminoazobenzene.

Protein and riboflavin deficiencies (11, 17, 1, 7) seem to be major dietary factors involved in the production of liver cancers by feeding p-dimethylaminoazobenzene. The quantity and type of fat in the diet also appear to be important in this process (14, 18), and other dietary factors, such as biotin, play a role under certain conditions (8, 22). Con versely, a major effect of feeding p-dimeth...
