Ethanolamine kinase was partially purified from the larvae of Culex pipiens fatigans and its properties were studied. The enzyme was separated from choline kinase by acetic acid precipitation at pH 5.0 of a 13,000g supernatant of the larval homogenate. Alkaline phosphatase activity was removed from the enzyme preparation by the acid treatment followed by ammonium sulfate fractionation. The enzyme was localized in the cytosolic fraction and had a requirement for Mg2+ as a cofactor. The Km values for ethanolamine and ATP were 4 × 10?4 and 1.54 × 10?4m, respectively. The affinity of the enzyme for nucleotide triphosphates was in the order, ATP > ITP > GTP while UTP and CTP were poorly utilized. p-Chloromercuribenzoate and N-ethylmaleimide inhibited the enzyme activity and reduced glutathione protected the enzyme from their inhibition. Choline and serine had no effect on the enzyme activity. The enzyme had a molecular weight of 44, 000 daltons as determined by gel filtration chromatography. Eggs contained the highest specific activity of the enzyme while adult insects had the highest total enzyme activity. 相似文献

Chicken liver d-3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase was effectively inhibited at 25 °C by micromolar concentrations of N-ethyl-, N-butyl-, N-pentyl-, N-heptyl-, and N-phenylmaleimide. The rates of inactivation of the enzyme did not vary with chain length of the N-alkylmaleimide derivative. Saturation kinetics in the same concentration range was observed with each maleimide derivative studied. A maximum pseudo-first-order rate constant of 0.1 min?1 was determined for all of the maleimide inactivation reactions. Compounds shown to bind at the coenzyme binding site such as NAD, 3-aminopyridine adenine dinucleotide, adenosine diphosphoribose, and adenosine diphosphate did not protect the enzyme against N-ethylmaleimide inactivation. AMP was demonstrated to be a substrate-competitive inhibitor of the enzyme. AMP and 3-phosphoglycerate both effectively protected the enzyme against N-ethylmaleimide inactivation. Diazotized 3-aminopyridine adenine dinucleotide, a sulfhydryl modifying, site-labeling reagent for several pyridine nucleotide-dependent enzymes, did not inactivate the phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase but functioned rather as a reversible coenzyme-competitive inhibitor. 相似文献

1. Modification of the Class II sulphydryl groups on the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase from rectal glands of Squalus acanthias with N-ethylmaleimide has been used to detect conformational changes in the protein. The rates of inactivation of the enzyme and the incorporation of N-ethylmaleimide depend on the ligands present in the incubation medium. With 150 mM K+ the rate of inactivation is largest (k1 = 1.73 mM?1 · min?1) and four SH groups per α-subunit are modified. The rate of inactivation in the presence of 150 mM Na+ is smaller (k1 = 1.08 mM?1 · min-1) but the incorporation of N-ethylmaleimide is the same as with K+. 2. ATP in micromolar concentrations protects the Class II groups in the presence of Na+ (k1 = 0.08 mM?1 · min?1 at saturating ATP) and the incorporation id drastically reduced. ATP in millimolar concentrations protects the Class II groups partially in the presence of K+ (k1 = 1.08 mM?1 · min?1) and three SH groups are labelled per α subunit. 3. The K+ -dependent phosphatase is inhibited in parallel to the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase under all conditions, and the ligand-dependent incorporation of N-ethylmaleimide was on the α-subunit only. 4. It is shown that the difference between the Na+ and K+ conformations sensed with N-ethylmaleimide depends on the pH of the incubation medium. At pH 6 there is a very small difference between the rates of inactivation in the presence of Na+ and K+, but at higher pH the difference increases. It is also shown that the rate of inactivation has a minimum at pH 6.9, which suggests that the conformation of the enzyme changes with pH. 5. Modification of the Class III groups with N-ethylmaleimide-whereby the enzyme activity is reduced from about 16% to zero-shows that these groups are also sensitive to conformational changes. As with the Class II groups, ATP in micromolar concentrations protects in the presence of Na+ relative to Na+ or K+ alone. ATP in millimolar concentrations with K+ present increases the rate of inactivation relative to K+ alone, in contrast to the effect on the Class II groups. 6. Modification of the Class II groups with a maleimide spin label shows a difference between Class II groups labelled in the presence of Na+ (or K+) and Class II groups labelled in the presence of K + ATP, in agreement with the difference in incorporation of N-ethylmaleimide. The spectra suggest that the SH group protected by ATP in the presence of K+ is buried in the protein. 7. The results suggest that at least four different conformations of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase can be sensed with N-ethylmaleimide: (i) a Na+ form of the enzyme with ATP bound to a high-affinity site (E1-Na-ATP); (ii) a Na+ form without ATP bound (E1-Na); (iii) a K+ form without ATP bound (E2-K); and (iv) an enzyme form with ATP bound to a low-affinity site in the presence of K+, probably and E1-K-ATP form. 相似文献

The reactivity of the thiol groups of the essential light-chains of scallop myosin is greatly reduced by the presence of regulatory light-chains on myosin. The thiol groups of the essential light-chains react with iodoacetate only if the regulatory light-chains have been removed by treatment with EDTA. No alkylation of the essential light-chains could be detected in myosins containing regulatory light-chains (untreated or reconstituted myosins) after an overnight incubation with excess iodoacetate at 4 °C. In contrast, similar treatment alkylated two to three thiol groups of essential light-chains in desensitized myosins from which the regulatory light-chains had been removed. In addition, up to seven of the 20 heavy-chain thiols were also alkylated; however, the reactivity of the heavy-chain thiols did not depend on the presence of the regulatory light-chains. ATPase activities were not inhibited by alkylation with iodoacetate. Regulatory light-chains also protected essential light-chain thiols against reaction with N-iodoacetyl-N′-(l-sulfo-5-naphthyl) ethylenediamine and against dansylation at pH 6.7, although treatment with these reagents caused a considerable loss of ATPase activities. Rebinding of the regulatory light-chains was impaired by alkylation. The results indicate an extensive interaction between the regulatory and the essential light-chains in scallop myosin. 相似文献

The trifunctional enzyme bisphosphoglyceromutase (or diphosphoglycerate mutase) (EC 2.7.5.4) was purified from human red cells and injected into two chickens. Specific anti-bisphosphoglyceromutase antibodies were produced that displayed a single precipitation line on Ouchterlony plates and on immunoelectrophoresis. No cross-reaction of these antibodies was detected with phosphoglyceromutase, the common glycolytic enzyme. Immunoneutralization of bisphosphoglyceromutase and of its two other activities, i.e., bisphosphoglycerate phosphatase and phosphoglyceromutase, was observed for a purified preparation. The anti-bisphosphoglyceromutase antibody reacts with the inactive enzyme present in the hemolysate of a mutant human subject. It also binds bisphosphoglyceromutase inactivated by N-ethylmaleimide, a strong alkylating agent of SH groups. Active bisphosphoglyceromutase is stable at 55°C, whereas the inactive forms of the mutant and of the alkylated hemolysates are thermolabile. These forms can be protected against thermal precipitation by 4 mM 2,3-diphosphoglycerate and 4 mM 3-phosphoglycerate. These findings afford evidence that the binding of the substrates on the bisphosphoglyceromutase molecule is not prevented by alkylation nor by the mutation of the hereditary inactive enzyme. 相似文献

The reaction of one of the four cysteinyl residues of thymidylate synthetase from methotrexate-resistant Lactobacillus casei with a variety of sulfhydryl reagents results in complete inhibition of the enzyme. Kinetic studies indicate that the rates of reactivity of the reagents tested are N-ethylmaleimide > iodoacetamide > N-(iodoacetylaminoethyl)-S-naphthylamine-1-sulfonic acid > iodoacetic acid. The enzyme is also inactivated by 5-Hg-deoxyuridylate, a compound which reacts stoichiometrically with a single cysteine. Unlike the other reagents, the inhibition produced by this compound can be completely reversed by added thiols. The same cysteine appears to react with all of the sulfhydryl reagents, as shown by competition experiments and by protection against inactivation by deoxyuridylate. Even at a 100-fold excess of the alkylating agents, only one of the four cysteines in the native enzyme was reactive, attesting to the uniqueness of this residue. Carboxypeptidase A inactivation of the enzyme does not affect either the binding of deoxyuridylate to the enzyme or the reactivity of N-ethylmaleimide with the “catalytic” cysteine. Under denaturing conditions, all four cysteinyl residues react with N-ethylmaleimide or iodoacetate, as shown by identifying the reaction products by amino acid analysis. The covalent ternary complex [(+)5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate-5-fluorodeoxyuridylate-thymidylate synthetase] (molar ratio = 2:2:1) revealed only two cysteinyl residues capable of reacting with N-ethylmaleimide or iodoacetate upon denaturation. From these data, it appears that one cysteine is involved in the binding of deoxyuridylate and that two of the enzyme's four cysteines are responsible for binding 5-fluorodeoxyuridylate in the ternary complex. 相似文献

Myosin reacted with N-ethylmaleimide in the presence of ADP lost its ability to be activated by actin. Subfragment 1 behaved similarly. About 2 moles of N-ethylmaleimide per mole of Subfragment 1 were required to eliminate actin activation of the Mg2+-ATPase activity. At the point at which actin activation was lost the K+-EDTA-ATPase activity was also lost, but the Ca2+-activated ATPase activity was increased. Kinetic measurements indicated that the labelling with N-ethylmaleimide in the presence of ADP reduced V (the ATPase activity at infinite actin concentration) but did not effect Kapp (which is related to the dissociation constant of the actin-Subfragment 1 complex). The Mg2+-activated activity of the reacted myosin alone remained unaltered and the ability to bind actin was retained. We propose that the N-ethylmaleimide labelling blocked the actin activation by preventing the accelerated release of hydrolysis products from the myosin. 相似文献

The reaction of NAD(P)H:flavin oxidoreductase (flavin reductase) from Photobacterium fischeri is proposed to follow a ping-pong bisubstrate-biproduct mechanism. This is based on a steady-state kinetic analysis of initial velocities and patterns of inhibition by NAD+ and AMP. The double reciprocal plots of initial velocities versus concentrations of FMN or NADH show, in both cases, a series of parallel lines. The Michaelis constants for NADH (FMN saturating) and FMN (NADH saturating) are 2.2 and 1.2 × 10?4m, respectively. The product NAD+ has been found to be an inhibitor competitive with FMN but non-competitive with NADH. Using AMP as an inhibitor, noncompetitive inhibition patterns were observed with respect to both NADH and FMN as the varied substrate. In addition, the reductase was not inactivated by treatment with N-ethylmaleimide either alone or in the presence of FMN, but the enzyme was inactivated by N-ethylmaleimide in the presence of NADH. These findings suggest that flavin reductase shuttles between disulfide- and sulfhydryl-containing forms during catalysis. 相似文献

The mechanism of anaerobic reduction of NO2? to N2O in a photodenitrifier, Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides forma sp. denitrificans, was investigated. With ascorbate-reduced phenazine methosulfate (PMS) as the electron donor, the nitrite reductase of this photodenitrifier reduced NO2? to NO and a trace amount of N2O. With dithionite-reduced benzyl viologen as the electron donor, the major product of NO2? reduction was NH2OH, and a trace amount of N2O was also produced. The nitrate reductase itself had no NO reductase activity with ascorbate-reduced PMS. It was concluded that the essential product of NO2? reduction by the purified nitrite reductase is NO. Chromatophore membranes stoichiometrically produced N2O from NO2? with any electron donor, such as dithionite-redduced benzyl viologen, ascorbate-reduced PMS or NADH/FMN. The membranes also contrained activity of NO reduction of N2O with either ascorbate-reduced PMS or duroquinol. The NO reductase activity with duroquinol was inhibited by antimycin A. Stoichiometric production of N2O from N2? also was observed in the reconstituted NO2? reduction system which contained the cytochrome bc1 complex, cytochrome c2, the nitrite reductase and duroquinol as the electron donor. The preparation of the cytochrome bc1 complex itself contianed NO reductase activity. From these results the mechanism of NO2? reduction to N2O in this photodenitrifier was determined as the nitrite reductase reducing NO2? to NO with electrons from the cytochrome bc1 complex, and NO subsequently being reduced, without release, to N2O with electrons from the cytochrome bc1 complex by the NO reductase, which is closely associated with the complex. 相似文献

Isolated nuclei from HeLa cells synthesize dCDP-diglyceride from dCTP at the rapid rate of 5–10 nmol/20 min/108 nuclei. The incorporation of dCTP into this phospholipid precursor is thus 10 to 20 times faster than the incorporation of dCTP into DNA, in vitro, under the same conditions. ATP, phosphatidic acid, and MgCl2 are required for optimal synthesis of dCDP-diglyceride. The reaction is completely inhibited by the presence of 0.04% Triton N-101. Liponucleotide formation occurs equally well with dCTP or CTP in this system and competition studies suggest that a single enzyme catalyzes the formation of dCDP- and CDP-diglyceride. 相似文献

These experiments examined the effects of N-ethylmaleimide on insullin- and oxidant-stimulated sugar transport in soleus muscle in terms of the Thiol-Redox model for insulin-stimulated adipocyte sugar transport (Czech, M.P. (1976) J. Cell. Physiol. 89, 661–668). Brief exposure (1 min) to N-ethylmaleimide (0.3?10 nM) inhibited the stimulatory effect of insulin (0.1 U/ml) on D-[U-14C]xylose uptake by rat soleus muscle. N-Ethylmaleimide also inhibited the stimulatory effects of H2O2 (5 mM), diamide (0.2 mM) and vitamin K-5 (0.05 mM). This effect of N-ethylmaleimide on insulin was paralleled by the inhibition of 125I-labelled insulin binding by the muscle. N-ethylmaleimide lowered muscle ATP; however, its effects on sugar transport and 125I-labelled insulin binding could be dissociated from its effect on ATP. Exposing muscles to insulin prior to N-ethylmaleimide did not abolish the inhibitory effect of sulphydryl blockae on insulin-stimulated sugar transport, but did reduce the effect of the inhibitor by 20–30%. Conversely, when muscles were first allowed to bind 125I-labelled insulin and then exposed to the inhibitor, there was no effect of N-ethylmaleimide on pre-bound insulin. Exposure to diamide or vitamin K-5 before N-ethylmaleimide (1 mM) attenuated the inhibitory effet of sulphydryl blockade but no protective effect was observed with H2O2. None of the oxidants protected against the inhibitory effect of 3 nM N-ethylmaleimide. It is concluded that there are two N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive sites involved in the activation of muscle sugar transport at the post-receptor level. One of these would appear to be similar to the Thiol-Redox site described in the adipocyte; the other site appears to be an essential sulphydryl group whose function does not involve oxidation to a disulphide. 相似文献

An enzyme fraction from aged swede root disks catalyses the formation of CoA thioesters of cinnamic acids in the presence of CoA, ATP and Mg2+. The enzyme shows activity only to those cinnamic acid derivatives bearing a phenolic OH group, p-coumaric and ferulic acids being the most active substrates. The requirement for Mg2+ can be replaced by Mn2+, Co2+ or Ni2+. The requirement for ATP could not be replaced by GTP, CTP, UTP, ADP or AMP. ADP and AMP, but not pyrophosphate, inhibited the ATP dependent activation of p-coumarate. The activity was inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide and p-chloro-mercuribenzoate which suggests a requirement for -SH groups for activation. The activity of the enzyme is low in freshly prepared disks but rises during ageing, particularly if the ageing is carried out in the presence of low concentrations of ethylene. 相似文献

The alkylation of a number of purified tRNA preparations by reaction with the carcinogens, N-methyl-N-nitrosourea and N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea was studied in order to investigate the role of nucleic acid structure on the distribution of alkylation products within the nucleotide sequence. The rate of alkylation was greatly increased by increasing the pH over the range 6 to 8 and the degree of alkylation (expressed as moles alkyl groups/mole tRNA) was directly proportional to the concentration of the nitrosamide added and independent of the amount of tRNA present. There was no significant difference in the degree of alkylation of any of the tRNA preparations tested. Reaction with N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea resulted in a degree of alkylation some 13 times less than that produced by reaction with a similar concentration of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea. The major product of the reaction was 7-alkylguanine amounting to about 80% of the total, but 3-methylcytosine, 6-O-methylguanine and 1-methyl-, 3-methyl-, and 7-methyladenine were also identified as products of the reaction of tRNAfMet with N-methyl-N-nitrosourea.The possibility that preferential alkylation of certain residues within the polynucleotide sequence was produced by reaction with the nitrosamides was examined by degradation of the alkylated tRNA with pancreatic ribonuclease and separation of the oligonucleotide fragments by chromatography on DEAE cellulose. When tRNAfMet which had been alkylated by reaction with N-methyl-N-nitrosourea or N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea was analysed in this way, the distribution of 7-alkylguanine was, within the limits of experimental error, in agreement with that expected for a random reaction of the alkylating agent with all of the guanosine residues throughout the molecule. A similar result was seen when tRNAPhe was examined. These results were obtained by alkylation under conditions where the native configuration of the tRNA was maintained and show that the tertiary structure of the nucleic acid does not impart any specificity to the reaction with the nitrosamide producing 7-alkylguanine but the possibility that such specificity does exist for the minor products of alkylation cannot be excluded. 相似文献

The smallest of the three molecular weight forms of acid phosphatase from bovine liver was purified to a specific activity of 100 μmol min?1 mg?1 (measured at pH 5.5 and 37 °C with p-nitrophenyl phosphate). Using several chromatographie and electrophoretic methods, no evidence of heterogeneity was detected. The enzyme was characterized with respect to its stability as a function of pH, molecular weight, amino acid composition, steady-state kinetic parameters in the pH range 4–7 and inhibition by common acid phosphatase inhibitors at pH 5.5. The amino acid composition differed somewhat from a previous literature report. The enzyme was stoichiometrically inactivated upon incubation with Hg2+, Ag+, and iodoacetate. Inactivation also occurred upon photoinactivation in the presence of Rose Bengal but no inactivation occurred with diethyl pyrocarbonate. The alkylation of one of five cysteine residues by iodoacetate was shown to cause complete inactivation of the enzyme. This alkylation was prevented by the presence of phosphate ion. A tryptic dipeptide containing this essential cysteine was isolated following inactivation with iodo[2-14C]acetate. 相似文献

Both a fluorescence-quenching technique and a uv-difference spectral method have been used to study the binding of 1,N6-etheno analogs of the adenine nucleotides (?ATP, ?ADP, ?AMP) (J. A. Secrist III, J. R. Barrio, N. J., Leonard, and G. Weber, 1972, Biochemistry, 11, 3499–3506) to crystalline rabbit and calf muscle ATP-AMP transphosphorylase in the presence and absence of Mg2+, at 0.16 (), 25 °C, and pH 7.4. In addition, the binding of the ?-analogs of the adenine nucleotides has been studied to two S-[14C]carboxymethylated peptide fragments of the rabbit muscle enzyme (residues 1–44 = MT-I; residues 171–193 = MT-XII), as well as to a synthetic nonapeptide corresponding to residues 32 ? 40 of the rabbit muscle enzyme. In the case of the rabbit and calf enzymes: Mg?ATP2?, ?ATP4?, Mg?ADP?, and ?AMP2? are bound stoichiometrically (n ~- 1), Mg?AMP is insignificantly bound, and n ~- 2 for ?ADP3? (n = maximal number of moles bound per mole of protein). In the case of S-carboxymethylated peptide fragments: MT-I binds stoichiometrically to Mg?ATP2?, ?ATP4?, Mg?ADP?, and ?ADP3? with values of n ~- 1; but MT-I does not bind to ?AMP2? significantly. MT-XII binds stoichiometrically to uncomplexed ?AMP2? or to uncomplexed ?ADP3? (both with n ~- 1); whereas, the binding of Mg?ADP?, ?ATP4?, and Mg?AMP to MT-XII are comparatively insignificant. Other peptide fragments in the molecule, viz. fragments MT-IV (residues 77–96) or MT-VI (residues 106–126) did not bind significantly to any of the ethenoanalogs; nor did insulin, nor, e.g., did bo vine serum albumin. The binding of the etheno analogs was also studied to an equimolar mixture of peptides MT-I + MT-XII, which qualitatively duplicated the binding pattern of the entire native molecule, and except for ?ATP4? or Mg?ATP2? (which are bound more tightly to the entire native molecule), even quantitatively. The synthetic peptide (residues 32 to 40) was found to bind to Mg?ATP2?, ?ATP4?, and Mg?ADP?, with n ~- 1; but it does not significantly bind to ?AMP2?, nor to ?ADP3?. These binding data support the idea that there are two separate sites for the binding of either (a) the complexed nucleotide substrate (MgATP2? or MgADP?) residing in the sequence of MT-I (residues 1 to 44) and in the neighborhood of residues 32 to 40, or (b) the uncomplexed nucleotide substrate (AMP2? or ADP3?) residing in the sequence of MT-XII (residues 171 to 193) of the rabbit muscle enzyme. 相似文献

1. (Na+ +K+)-ATPase from rectal gland of Squlus acanthias contains 34 SH groups per mol (Mr 265000). 15 are located on the α subunit (Mr 106 000) and two on the β subunit (Mr 40 000). The β subunit also contains one disulphide bridge. 2. The reaction of (Na+ +K+)-ATPase with N-ethylmaleimide shows the existence of at least three classes of SH groups. Class I contains two SH groups on each α subunit and one on each β subunit. Reaction of these groups with N-methylmaleimide in the presence of 40% glycerol or sucrose does not alter the enzyme activity. Class II contains four SH groups on each α subunit, and the reaction of these groups with 0.1 mM N-ethylmaleimide in the presence of 150 mM K+ leads to an enzyme species with about 16% activity. The remaining enzyme activity can be completely abolished by reaction with 5–10 nM N-ethylmaleimide, indicating a third class of SH groups (Class III). This pattern of inactivation is different from that of the kidney enzyme, where only one class of SH groups essential to activity is observed. 3. It is also shown that N-ethylmaleimide and DTNB inactivate by reacting with the same Class II SH groups. 4. Spin-labelling of the (Na+ +K+)-ATPase with a maleimide derivative shows that Class II groups are mostly buried in the membrane, whereas Class I groups are more exposed. It is also shown that spin label bound to the Class I groups can monitor the difference between the Na+- and K+-forms of the enzyme. 相似文献

When isolated chromatin is incubated with the carcinogens N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MeNU) and N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (EtNU), DNA and chromosomal proteins become alkylated to increasingly greater extents as the carcinogen concentrations increase. With either MeNU or EtNU, the core and linker DNA of chromatin are alkylated to essentially identical extents. Alkylation of chromatin DNA as well as free DNA is drastically reduced at physiological ionic strengths (e.g. 0.15 M NaCl). The presence of 0.15 M NaCl, on the other hand, enhances alkylation of chromosomal proteins. While EtNU is much less reactive to DNA than MeNU, alkylation of chromosomal proteins relative to that of chromatin DNA has been found to be markedly greater with EtNU than with MeNU. Such a difference in their relative reactivities toward DNA and proteins may be related to the known difference of carcinogenic potency between these N-nitroso compounds. 相似文献

A method was developed for the quantification of araCTP, CTP and dCTP in a human follicular lymphoma cell line. This method involves solid phase extraction (SPE) using a weak anion-exchanger (WAX) cartridge, a porous graphitic carbon high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) column separation, and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) detection. By using a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer operating in negative ion multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode, the method was able to achieve a lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) of 0.1 μg mL?1 for araCTP and of 0.01 μg mL?1 for both CTP and dCTP. The method was validated and used to determine the amount of araCTP, CTP and dCTP formed after incubation of araC and an araCMP prodrug in the human follicular lymphoma cell line RL. 相似文献

The present study explores the possibilities of using specific amino acids in haemoglobin for tissue dosimetry of alkylating agents. The well-known directly alkylating compound methyl methanesulfonate has been used as a model compound.In one experiment 3H-labelled methyl methanesulfonate was given to mice intraperitoneally at three dose levels. The degree of alkylation of haemoglobin exhibited a linear dependence on the quantity of methyl methanesulfonate injected. The degree of alkylation of guanine-N-7 in DNA indicated a slight positive deviation from linearity at high doses.After a single injection the degree of alkylation of cysteine-S and histidine-N-3 in haemoglobin decreased linearly with time reaching the value zero after about 40 days (the life-time of the erythrocytes in the mouse). This demonstrates a stability of these alkylated products, which is fundamental to their use as integral dose monitors.In a second experiment mice were treated with methyl methanesulfonate once a week over a period of 8 weeks. The experiment demonstrated an accumulation of alkylated groups in haemoglobin in agreement with expectation.A method for the quantitative determination of S-methylcysteine in a protein hydrolysate by gas chromatography was developed. 相似文献
