Purification and Characterization of Ornithine Transcarbamylase from Pea (Pisum sativum
Pea (Pisum sativum) omithine transcarbamylase (OTC) was purified to homogeneity from leaf homogenates in a single-step procedure, using 5-N-(phosphonacetyl)-L-omithine-Sepharose 6B affinity chromatography. The 1581-fold purified OTC enzyme exhibited a specific activity of 139 micromoles citrulline per minute per milligram of protein at 370C, pH 8.5. Pea OTC represents approximately 0.05% of the...
متن کاملPurification and Characterization of the RecA Protein from Neisseria gonorrhoeae
The strict human pathogen Neisseria gonorrhoeae is the only causative agent of the sexually transmitted infection gonorrhea. The recA gene from N. gonorrhoeae is essential for DNA repair, natural DNA transformation, and pilin antigenic variation, all processes that are important for the pathogenesis and persistence of N. gonorrhoeae in the human population. To understand the biochemical feature...
متن کاملOrnithine Transcarbamylase Deficiency
Accumulation of ammonia in body tissues most commonly occurs in hepatic failure. However, it may also result from a specific deficiency of an enzyme of the urea cycle (Fig., 1). Severe hyperammonaemia has been reported with deficiencies of carbamyl phosphate synthetase (Freeman et al., 1964) and ornithine transcarbamylase (Russell et al., 1962; Levin and Russell, 1967). Some increase in blood a...
متن کاملAntepartum Ornithine Transcarbamylase Deficiency
Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD) is the most common type urea cycle enzyme deficiencies. This syndrome results from a deficiency of the mitochondrial enzyme ornithine transcarbamylase, which catalyzes the conversion of ornithine and carbamoyl phosphate to citrullin. Our case was a 28-year-old female diagnosed with OTCD following neurocognitive deficit during her first pregnancy. Alt...
