[Determination of human serum galactosyltransferase using a kinetic spectrophotometric technic]. 1985

P Gauduchon, and J J Baumann, and E Bar, and J Y Le Talaër

A kinetic spectrophotometric method in which galactose transfer is coupled to the production of NADH, has been adapted to the assay of galactosyltransferase activity in human serum. Under the described conditions, the rate of NADH production is linear with regard to enzyme concentration, and directly depends upon the various biochemical factors which control galactosyltransferase activity.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008345 Manganese A trace element with atomic symbol Mn, atomic number 25, and atomic weight 54.94. It is concentrated in cell mitochondria, mostly in the pituitary gland, liver, pancreas, kidney, and bone, influences the synthesis of mucopolysaccharides, stimulates hepatic synthesis of cholesterol and fatty acids, and is a cofactor in many enzymes, including arginase and alkaline phosphatase in the liver. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual 1992, p2035)
D009243 NAD A coenzyme composed of ribosylnicotinamide 5'-diphosphate coupled to adenosine 5'-phosphate by pyrophosphate linkage. It is found widely in nature and is involved in numerous enzymatic reactions in which it serves as an electron carrier by being alternately oxidized (NAD+) and reduced (NADH).
