Interaction of Aspartate Aminotransferase with Amino Acids By P. SCOTTO AND V. SCARDI
نویسنده
چکیده
1. The capacity ofvarious amino acids to convert the pyridoxal form ofaspartate aminotransferase into the pyridoxamine form has been investigated. 2. Glutamate has the highest converting capacity; aspartate, cx-aminopimelate, oc-aminoadipate and other amino acids follow. 3. The converting capacity of the various amino acids assayed is connected with their structural features. 4. A possible role of amino acids as secondary substrates of aspartate aminotransferase is suggested.

1. Oestrone 3-glucuronide has been identified as the reaction product after incubation of oestrone with a rabbit-liver microsomal preparation, uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid being used as the glucuronic acid donor. The formation of this compound was studied under various experimental conditions. 2. The reaction showed a maximum at pH 8.08-2, and Km for oestrone was found to be 9-7 x 10-5M....
متن کاملChiroptical Properties of Amino Acids: A Density Functional Theory Study
Amino acids are involved in many scientific theories elucidating possible origins of life on Earth. One of the challenges when discussing the evolutionary origin of biopolymers such as proteins and oligonucleotides in living organisms is the phenomenon that these polymers implement monomers of exclusively one handedness, a feature called biomolecular homochirality. Many attempts have been made ...

We investigate the spatial behavior of nonclassical light produced by type I second-harmonic generation in the traveling-wave configuration. An input-output transformation for the system of fundamental and secondharmonic field is derived in the framework of a linearization approach and used to investigate the properties of an optical system, which consists of a crystal with a quadratic nonlinea...
متن کاملEffect of oral potassium and sodium chloride on plasma composition of cattle: a grass tetany related study.
M ANY factors have been implicated in the etiology of grass tetany including hypomagnesemia, hypocalcemia, class of animal, stage of production and various dietary factors. Hypomagnesemia has been the most consistent clinical symptom. Elevated levels of dietary potassium (K) (Kunkel, Burns and Camp, 1953; Ward, 1966a) and nitrogen (Redmond, 1950; Metson et al., 1966) have lowered plasma magnesi...
