چکیده
1. On the basis of its action on a number of conjugated hexuronic acids and other compounds, it is concluded that mouse-liver glucuronidase is specific for f-D-glucopyranuronides, including ,B-D-glucopyranuronic acid-1-phosphate. 2. Derivatives of klevomenthol caused slight activation of glucuronidase. 3. Mouse-liver preparations did not catalyse the condensation of o-aminophenol with aor ,Bglucuronic acid-i-phosphate.

Phylogeny of urate oxidase producing bacteria: on the basis of gene sequences of 16S rRNA and uricase protein
Uricase or Urate oxidase (urate:oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.7.3.3), a peroxisomal enzyme which is found in many bacteria, catalyzes the oxidative opening of the purine ring of urate to yield allantoin, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen peroxide. In this study, the phylogeny of urate oxidase (uricase) producing bacteria was studied based on gene sequences of 16S rRNA and uricase protein. Repres...
