Purification and properties of serine and threonine dehydrases.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The work reported herein describes the results of endeavors to isolate and characterize the enzymes involved in the dehydrative deamination of the /?-hydroxyamino acids, serine and threonine. Preparations have been obtained which act on threonine and serine separately. L-Threonine dehydrase and L-serine dehydrase were separated by controlled heat denaturation and subsequent ammonium sulfate fractionation.

Electron Ionization of Serine and Threonine: a Discussion about Peak Intensities
The present study describes the fragmentation under electron ionization (EI) of gas phase serine and threonine amino acids. Ab initio methods were performed to calculate the fragmentation paths and interpret the mass spectra. The six lowest energy conformers of L-serine, L-threonine and L-allo-threonine were obtained with B3LYP, G3MP2 and MP2 methods. The adiabatic and vertical ionizat...
متن کاملTheoretical Thermodynamic Study of Solvent Effects on Serine and Threonine Amino Acids at Different Temperatures
The thermodynamic functions such as enthalpy (H), Gibbs free energy (G) and entropy (S) of Serineand Threonine amino acids were theoretically studied at different condition (solvents andtemperatures) by using Gussian o3, software. First, the structural optimization of isolated Serine andThreonine were done in the gas phase by using the Hartree-Fock (HF) level of theory with 3-21G, 6-31G and 6-3...
متن کاملStudies on the nature, inducibility, and assay of the threonine and serine dehydrase activities of rat liver.
Threonine dehydrase (deaminase), which catalyzes the conversion of I,-threonine to a-ketobutyrate and ammonia, has been observed in crude extracts prepared from a number of different organisms (1-13). Frequently these same extracts also act on L-serine to form pyruvate and ammonia. Table I summarizes the available data on the serine and threonine dehydrasel activities in crude extracts from var...
متن کاملDEAMINATION OF SERINE II. D-SERINE DEHYDRASE, A VITAMIN Bs ENZYME FROM ESCHERICHIA COLP
Non-enzymatic deamination of serine and cysteine is catalyzed by pyridoxal and certain metal salts at 100” (2). This finding suggested that pyridoxal phosphate might be involved in the enzymatic deamination of these amino acids. Vitamin B, has already been implicated in the desulfhydration of cysteine by rat liver (3) and of cysteine and homocysteine by bacteria (4). Several similarities of cys...

Selim and Greenberg (1, 2) achieved a considerable degree of purification of L-serine dehydratase (L-serine hydro-lyase (deaminating), EC 4.2.1.13) from rat liver and demonstrated that this protein preparation contained the cystathionine-synthesizing activity of the liver (L-serine hydro-lyase (adding L-homocysteine), EC 4.2.1.21). These workers (2) also observed activity of their enzyme prepar...
