Kinetic studies of four enzyme forms of beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase from embryonic chicken brain. 1987

J A Rodríguez-Hernández, and J Martín-Barrientos, and C Sánchez-Bernal, and J A Cabezas

The separation of four different hexosaminidase forms from embryonic chicken brain (16-day-old) has been performed by ion-exchange chromatography. Two different DEAE-cellulose columns have been used: a first one at pH 7.2 and a second one at pH 6.0. Km and Vmax values were estimated from the Lineweaver-Burk or Dixon plots and ki from the Dixon plots, using N-acetyl-D-glucosamine or N-acetyl-D-galactosamine as inhibitors. In both cases we found a kind of competitive inhibition in which Lineweaver-Burk and Dixon plots curve downwards.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007527 Isoenzymes Structurally related forms of an enzyme. Each isoenzyme has the same mechanism and classification, but differs in its chemical, physical, or immunological characteristics. Alloenzyme,Allozyme,Isoenzyme,Isozyme,Isozymes,Alloenzymes,Allozymes
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D002642 Chick Embryo The developmental entity of a fertilized chicken egg (ZYGOTE). The developmental process begins about 24 h before the egg is laid at the BLASTODISC, a small whitish spot on the surface of the EGG YOLK. After 21 days of incubation, the embryo is fully developed before hatching. Embryo, Chick,Chick Embryos,Embryos, Chick
D006596 Hexosaminidases Enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of N-acylhexosamine residues in N-acylhexosamides. Hexosaminidases also act on GLUCOSIDES; GALACTOSIDES; and several OLIGOSACCHARIDES. Galactosaminidases,Hexosaminidase,Galactosaminidase,Glucosaminidase,Glucosaminidases
