mechanism of thyroxine-mediated oxidation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide in peroxidase-h2o2 system. | the oxidation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (nadh) by the horseradish peroxidase (hrp)-h2o2 system is greatly increased by the addition of thyroxine or related compounds. on the basis of a study of the rate of nadh oxidation in the presence of various concentrations of thyroxine, it is clear that thyroxine acts as a catalyst for nadh oxidation. spectral changes of a hrp-h2o2 complex (compound i) indicate that thyroxine acts as an electron donor to both compounds i and ii. the rate ... | 1977 | 192281 |
analysis and computer simulation of aerobic oxidation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase. | under suitable experimental conditions the aerobic oxidation of nadh catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase occurred in four characteristic phases: initial burst, induction phase, steady state, and termination. a trace amount of h2o2 present in the nadh solution brought about initial burst in the formation of oxyperoxidase. about 2 mol of oxyperoxidase was formed per mol of h2o2. when a considerable amount of the ferric enzyme still remained, the initial burst was followed by an induction phase. in ... | 1977 | 192280 |
[catalytic properties and thermostability of horseradish peroxidase covalently bound with sepharose by carbohydrate residues of the enzyme]. | a procedure for isolation of stabilized preparations of peroxidase, covalently bound with ah-sepharose 4b by the enzyme carbohydrate residues, which had been previously oxidized by iodine acid, is proposed. the catalytic properties and thermostability of soluble oxidized and immobilized peroxidase has been studied and a comparison of these properties with those of the native enzyme has been made. it has been demonstrated that the oxidation of the carbohydrate residues dose not affect eh km value ... | 1977 | 889967 |
[development of arrangement and degradation of the system of rough endoplasmic reticulum in antibody-producing plasma cells]. | during the immune response of the cells of murine omentum to horseradish peroxidase which had been administered intraperitoneally together together with endotoxin or endotoxoid acting as an adjuvans the plasma cells showed several different patterns of the rough endoplasmic reticulum [rer] system. irregular to bizarre rer structures occurred plasma cells during the initial phase of the immune reaction only, whereas the plasma cells found at later stages had characteristic highly organized rer sy ... | 1977 | 597922 |
retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxidase from cornea to trigeminal ganglion. | horseradish peroxidase (hrp) was dripped on the scarified left cornea of adult mice. twenty-four hours later the animals were fixed by vascular perfusion and frozen sections cut from both trigeminal ganglia. after incubation for peroxidase activity labelled nerve cells were restricted to the medial ophthalmic part of the ganglion ipsilateral to hrp administration. if the scarification was omitted no neuronal labelling was observed. this labelling of the neurons is most probably the result from a ... | 1977 | 300978 |
plant glycoprotein biosynthesis. uridine diphosphate n-acetyl-glucosaminyltransferase from horseradish root. | a particulate enzyme preparation from horseradish root tissue was shown to catalyze the transfer of 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-d-[14c1]glucose from uridine diphosphate 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-d-[14c1]glucose to an exogenous acceptor molecule derived from horseradish peroxidase. the acceptor was produced from purified peroxidase by the action of a mixture of glycoside hydrolases covalently bound to sepharose. the membrane preparation containing the transferase was purified approximately 12-fold by aqueous t ... | 1977 | 403958 |
