Glucose 6-phosphate-dehydrogenase activity in the preimplantation mouse embryo.
نویسنده
چکیده
1. The activity of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase was determined in mouse embryos during the first 5 days of development from the time of ovulation up to implantation. 2. The activity decreased from 1.39 to 0.19mmumoles of NADP reduced/hr./embryo from ovulation to implantation. 3. The specific activity of the embryo on the first day was higher than specific activities reported for most other tissues.

Background: The developmental competence of oocytes matured in vitro (IVM) is yet far below than in vivo counterparts. Recent studies suggest that the asynchrony between nuclear/cytoplasmic maturation and the initial low/heterogeneous quality of oocytes are the most important factors affecting IVM success. We investigated whether selection of growing oocytes (based on their glucose 6- phosphate...

Background: Recent studies have revealed that oocyte competence can be assessed through the presence of the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) enzyme, as indicated by brilliant cresyl blue (BCB), a dye that can be degraded by G6PDH. In the present study, we aimed to examine the validity of BCB test to select developmentally competent oocyte in ovine and its association with stage-specifi...

Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) was purified from Streptomyces aureofaciens and inactivated with butanedione and diethylpyrocarbonate. Incubation of the enzyme with butanedione resulted in a rapid activity loss (80%) within 5 min, followed by a slow phase using a molar ratio to enzyme concentration of 100. Fluorescence studies showed a conformational change in the butanedione-modified ...

Purpose: -Nkaline phosphatase(ALP)is a major sialoglycoprotein cell surface and intracellularof some tissues such as reproductive system. The recent investigations showed that the activity of this enzyme altered during the pre implantation and implantaion time and this alteration may correlate with endometrial receptivity. The aim of this study is to determine ALP activity of mouse uterus after...

When the specific activity of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase was 210 units/mg of protein, enzyme activity was just detectable when the water content of the reaction mixture was as low as 1.5%; as the water content incr...
