| Abstract: | 1. Phenylalanine hydroxylation has been demonstrated to occur in isolated rat kidney tubules under physiological conditions. 2. The hydroxylation flux response is hyperbolic with apparent Km and Vmax values of ca 85 microM phenylalanine and 49 nmol tyrosine formed/mg dry wt per hr respectively. 3. Hydroxylation in kidney tubules is substantially less sensitive to effectors of cyclic AMP turnover and Ca2+ mobilization than phenylalanine hydroxylation in isolated liver cells. |
