Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate Inactivation of Bovine Liver Glutamate Dehydrogenase

Inactivation of prions by acidic sodium dodecyl sulfate.

Prompted by the discovery that prions become protease-sensitive after exposure to branched polyamine dendrimers in acetic acid (AcOH) (S. Supattapone, H. Wille, L. Uyechi, J. Safar, P. Tremblay, F. C. Szoka, F. E. Cohen, S. B. Prusiner, and M. R. Scott, J. Virol. 75:3453-3461, 2001), we investigated the inactivation of prions by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in weak acid. As judged by sensitivit...

Dissociation of Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase with Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate

Inactivation of bovine glutamate dehydrogenase by carbamyl phosphate and cyanate.

By kinetic studies and the identification of the labeled peptide of the [WIKNCO-modified protein, the inactivation of bovine liver glutamate dehydrogenase by potassium cyanate can be attributed to the carbamylation of the e-amino group of lysine-97. Although the e-amino group of lysine-97 is the major site of carbamylation by cyanate, the oc-amino group of alanine-l and E-amino group of lysine-...

Bacterial Utilization of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate

SDS is widely used detergent in house holds and Industry. It is known to be toxic to fishes and also to animals. In the present review, we have emphasized on biodegradation of this detergent by bacteria, the pathway of biodegradation and also the enzymes involved in the degradation.

Toxicological effects of sodium dodecyl sulfate

The mass production and application of chemicals in different areas of plant and animal sciences cause a serious contamination to the immediate environment. Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS) is also known as Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) and commonly used in household, kitchen and laundry uses as a detergent ingredient and others. The description of SDS is important because it is now entered into the ...
