چکیده

A fluorimetric assay, based on the ability of boiled hepatic extracts to support the sulphO-conjugation of harmol, was used to demonstrate and quantify PAdoPS (adenosine 3'-phosphate 5'-sulphatophosphate) present in liver. A stoicheiometric relationship was established between the sulphate conjugate formed and the 'active sulphate' utilized. Guinea-pig, rat, mouse and rabbit livers contain 3.3, 2.9, 0.8 and 0.5 mumol of PAdoPS/100 G wet wt. respectively.

Sulpholipid formation in rat submandibular gland.

The sulphotransferase activity of rat submandibular gland differs markedly from that of testis, kidney and brain. The addition of lipid acceptors and Mn2+ (or Mg2+), which have been shown to enhance sulpholipid formation from adenosine 3'-phosphate 5'-sulphatophosphate in other tissues, has either no effect or inhibits the transfer process.

Purification from rat liver of an enzyme that catalyses the sulphurylation of phenols.

1. An enzyme (EC 2.8.2.1) that catalyses the transfer of sulphate from adenosine 3'-phosphate 5'-sulphatophosphate to phenols was purified approx. 2000-fold from male rat livers. 2. The purified preparation did not catalyse the sulphurylation of dehydroepiandrosterone, butan-1-ol, l-tyrosine methyl ester, 1-naphthylamine or serotonin. 3. At pH8.0 and 37 degrees C the K(m) values of the enzyme f...

Studies on the Arylsulphatase and phenol sulphotransferase activities of Aspergillus oryzae.

1. Crude extracts of Aspergillus oryzae grown under conditions of sulphur limitation possess high arylsulphatase activity. 2. This activity can be greatly enhanced by the inclusion of tyramine or a number of other phenols in the assay medium. 3. The arylsulphatase activity of these extracts can be resolved into three distinct fractions by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. 4. The effect of tyram...

Metabolism of inorganic sulphate in the isolated perfused rat liver. Effect of sulphate concentration on the rate of sulphation by phenol sulphotransferase.

1. The metabolism of inorganic [(35)S]sulphate (Na(2) (35)SO(4)) was studied in the isolated perfused rat liver at three initial concentrations of inorganic sulphate in the perfusion medium (0, 0.65 and 1.30mm), in relation to sulphation and glucuronidation of a phenolic drug, harmol (7-hydroxy-1-methyl-9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole). 2. [(35)S]Sulphate rapidly equilibrated with endogenous sulphate in...
