Alcohol dehydrogenase of animal tissues

Diphosphopyridine nucleotide isocitric dehydrogenase from animal tissues.

Kinetic properties of alcohol dehydrogenase in hepatocellular carcinoma and normal tissues of rat.

It was previously reported that the properties of alcohol dehydrogenase of a rat hepatocellular carcinoma (Becker H-252), a tumor of intermediate growth rate, were different from those of the liver enzyme, suggesting different isozymes. To determine whether the degree of differentiation affected the isozyme of alcohol dehydrogenase, a fast-growing, poorly differentiated tumor and one that is we...

Alcohol dehydrogenase in human tissues: localisation of transcripts coding for five classes of the enzyme.

Tissue distribution of the five identified classes of human alcohol dehydrogenase was studied by assessment of mRNA levels in 23 adult and four fetal tissues. Alcohol dehydrogenase of class I was found in most tissues, brain and placenta excluded, but expression levels among tissues differed widely. The distribution pattern of class III transcripts was consistent with those of housekeeping enzy...

Drosophila Alcohol Dehydrogenase

Drosophila alcohol dehydrogenasc (alcohol:NADf oxidorcduct.ase, EC 1.1.1.1) has attracted attention in several laboratories (l-3) recently. Genetic variants of this enzyme were found, and consequently it was possible to determine its structural locus on the genetic map. The specific activity of alcohol dehydrogenase varies greatly along the t.ime axis of devcloprnent of this organism, and it oc...

Alcohol dehydrogenase isoenzymes nomenclature.

We read with a great pleasure the article ‘Rare ADH variant constellations are specific for alcohol dependence’ by Zuo et al. (2012). We want to direct the speciality about the alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) isoenzyme nomenclature to the readers of Alcohol and Alcoholism. Namely, the authors use an old isoenzyme nomenclature what can cause some confusion to not enough familiar readers. Electrophor...
