چکیده
The enzymes O-seryl-A-acetylgalactosaminide glycosidase and A-acetyl-/?-D-hexosaminidase were found in the following invertebrates and vertebrates: Adamsia palliata, Mesostoma ehrenbergi, Bugula avicularia, Lumbricus terrestris, Pagurus prideauxi, Helix pomatia, Ciona intestinalis, Brachidanio albolineatus, Rana esculenta, chicken and ox. They were assayed by their action on neuraminic acid-free ovine submaxillary glycoprotein, which contains an O-seryl-A-acetylgalactosaminide linkage, and on phenyl A-acetyl-/?-D-glucosaminide respectively. As previously shown for ox spleeen and Helix pomatia, also the two enzyme proteins present in the homogenates of chick embryo and Lumbricus terrestris eluted from Sephadex columns in two separate peaks.

Analysis of the Echinococcus granulosus Laminated Layer Carbohydrates by Lectin Blotting
Cystic hydatid disease is caused by cystic larval (metacestode) stages of Echinococcus granulosus. This parasite can potentially occur all over the world especially in Mediterranean and Middle East countries and some parts of Africa, Latin America and China which have major foci of human infections. The cyst wall of metacestodes consists of inner, middle and external layers. To date, little att...
متن کاملIs urinary N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase a marker of urological abnormality in children?
Abstract Background: Hydronephrosis is the most common congenital condition that is detected by prenatal ultrasonography. Moreover, the widespread use of prenatal ultrasonography results in an increased recognition of fetal hydronephrosis. Prenatal hydronephrosis is diagnosed at an incidence of 1:100 to 1:500 by ultrasonographic studies. The presence of hydronephrosis is not synonymou...

The class of $n$-ary polygroups is a certain subclass of $n$-ary hypergroups, a generalization of D{"o}rnte $n$-arygroups and a generalization of polygroups. The$beta^*$-relation and the $gamma^*$-relation are the smallestequivalence relations on an $n$-ary polygroup $P$ such that$P/beta^*$ and $P/gamma^*$ are an $n$-ary group and acommutative $n$-ary group, respectively. We use the $beta^*$-...

N-acetyl-B-D-Glucosaminidase was purified by affinity and ionexchange chromatography. Two major, A and B, and three minor intermediate forms were isolated and characterized. NAG-A and NAG-B were purified 440 and 1200 fold with final yields of 16 and 23 percent respectively. Each activity was represented by a single protein band. After 70 min preincubation at 55°C a loss of70% activity of N...
متن کاملIncrease of lead-induced release of N-acetyl-p-D-glucosaminidase by NO synthase in perfused kidney of rat
Urinary N-acetyl-β-D-glucosalninidase (NAG) has been proved to be a useful marker of early renal injury as a result of factors such as lead toxicity. In this study the effect of lead acetate on the kidney and its correlation with the nitric oxide (NO) system was investigated by determining the NAG release in perfused kidney of rat. Lead acetate caused a time- and dose-dependent increase in en...
