[AMP-deaminase activity of circulating leukocytes in the human]. 1986

E A Gulian, and A V Arutiunian

It is shown that the AMP-deaminase activity in leucocytes of the human peripheric blood in contrast with the enzyme from erythrocytes manifests its activity only if it is isolated in the presence of K+ or Na+ ions. Pi and GTP being inhibitors of the enzyme in different tissues including erythrocytes do not alter the AMP-deaminase activity in leucocytes. 3,3',5-triiodothyracetic acid markedly decreasing the AMP-deaminase activity of leucocytes does not affect the enzyme activity in the hemolyzate of erythrocytes. The results obtained have shown that the AMP-deaminase activity in leucocytes of the human peripheric blood possesses some regulatory properties differing from those of the enzyme in erythrocytes.

D011188	Potassium	An element in the alkali group of metals with an atomic symbol K, atomic number 19, and atomic weight 39.10. It is the chief cation in the intracellular fluid of muscle and other cells. Potassium ion is a strong electrolyte that plays a significant role in the regulation of fluid volume and maintenance of the WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.
