1. N-Acetylgalactosamine 6-sulphate sulphatase was purified about 20000-fold from the soluble extract of human placenta with N-acetylgalactosamine 6-sulphate-glucuronic acid-N-acetyl[1-(3)H]galactosaminitol 6-sulphate as substrate in the activity assay. The enzyme appears to be a glycoprotein with a mol.wt. of about 100000 as determined by gel filtration. On gel electrophoresis in the presence ...

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...

Recently, heme protein cavity mutants have been engineered in which the proximal coordinating amino acid has been replaced by a smaller, noncoordinating residue leaving a cavity that can be filled by exogenous axial ligands. This approach was pioneered by Barrick (Biochemistry 1994, 33, 6546-6554) with H93G sperm whale myoglobin where the coordinating histidine is replaced by glycine and the pr...

The metabolic fate of potassium dodecyl [(35)S]sulphate was studied in rats. Intraperitoneal and oral administration of the ester into free-ranging animals were followed by the excretion of the bulk of the radioactivity in the urine within 12hr., approximately 17% being eliminated as inorganic [(35)S]sulphate. Similar results were obtained in experiments in which potassium dodecyl [(35)S]sulpha...

Chemical and spectroscopic studies have shown that in agricultural soils most of the soil sulphur (>95%) is present as sulphate esters or as carbon-bonded sulphur (sulphonates or amino acid sulphur), rather than inorganic sulphate. Plant sulphur nutrition depends primarily on the uptake of inorganic sulphate. However, recent research has demonstrated that the sulphate ester and sulphonate-pools...
