Carbamyl phosphate-aspartate transcarbamylase activity in tumors.
The enzyme carbamyl phosphate-aspartate transcarbamylase catalyzes the transfer of the carbamyl group from carbamyl phosphate (CP) to L-aspartate ($). Preliminary experiments with a series of six relatively advanced azo dye-induced hepatomas indicated that hepatoma tissue had a higher CP-aspartate transcarbamylase activity than did liver from normal animals. Experiments are reported here in whi...
متن کاملOrnithine carbamyl transferase in Reye's syndrome.
Serum levels of ornithine carbamyl transferase activities were determined in the acutely ill and convalescent Reye's syndrome patients and in their parents. Acutely ill Reye's syndrome patients had elevated levels of serum ornithine carbamyl transferase activities as compared to those in controls. The convalescent Reye's syndrome patients and their parents had normal levels of serum ornithine c...
متن کاملCarbamyl phosphate-aspartate transcarbamylase activity in regenerating rat liver.
An increase in CP-asp. 1 transcarbamylase activity in experimentally produced rat hepatoma was reported in a previous communication (5). The question whether the increased activity is characteristic of neoplasia or is simply a reflection of the metabolic changes taking place in rapidly growing tissue presented itself. Since liver tissue has the capacity to grow relatively rapidly during the pro...
متن کاملCrystal structure of E. coli apolipoprotein N-acyl transferase
In Gram-negative bacteria, lipid modification of proteins is catalysed in a three-step pathway. Apolipoprotein N-acyl transferase (Lnt) catalyses the third step in this pathway, whereby it transfers an acyl chain from a phospholipid to the amine group of the N-terminal cysteine residue of the apolipoprotein. Here, we report the 2.6-Å crystal structure of Escherichia coli Lnt. This enzyme contai...
متن کاملCrystal structure of E. coli lipoprotein diacylglyceryl transferase
Lipoprotein biogenesis is essential for bacterial survival. Phosphatidylglycerol:prolipoprotein diacylglyceryl transferase (Lgt) is an integral membrane enzyme that catalyses the first reaction of the three-step post-translational lipid modification. Deletion of the lgt gene is lethal to most Gram-negative bacteria. Here we present the crystal structures of Escherichia coli Lgt in complex with ...
