The interaction between alpha-2-macroglobulin and cationic aspartate aminotransferase.
نویسنده
چکیده
On starch-gel or polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis of human serum, a supernumerary zone of aspartate aminotransferase activity may be demonstrated, migrating with the slow alpha(2) protein zone. This appearance is due only to cationic aspartate aminotransferase, bound by alpha(2)-macroglobulin. The binding is strongly potentiated by dilute borate buffers.

Aspartate aminotransfcrase (L-aspartate: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase, EC 2. 6.1.1) comprises two isoen&ymcs. One is anionic, is associated with the soluble fraction of the cell and ordinarily forms the bulk of the scrum activity. The other is cationic, and is associated with the mitochondria (1—7). Each may in turn be subdivisible (8—10), but it is unlikely that this will influence the pres...

Aspartate aminotransferase (L-aspartate: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase, EC 2.6.1.1, glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase, GOT) comprises two isoenzymes. One is anionic and is associated principally with the soluble fraction of the cytoplasm, the other is cationic and is associated with the mitochondria [4]. A sensitive semi quantitative assay has been developed for cationic aspartate aminotransfe...

The experiment was conducted as a 2×2 factorial arrangement in a completely randomized design with two levels of aflatoxin (0 and 500µg/kg) and two levels of aqueous extract of T. daenensis (0 and 2000 mg/kg). Each of the 4 dietary treatments was f...

Background: Diagnosis of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is complicated due to the lack of reliable serum biomarkers. Up-regulation of alpha-2-macroglobulin (A2M) gene has been reported in glucocorticoid-induced ANFH rat model. This study aimed to investigate whether the serum level of alpha-2-macroglobulin (A2M) can be used for ONFH diagnosis. Methods: Serum protein capillary elect...
