The UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-asparagine-sequon N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyltransferase activity in preparations of rough endoplasmic reticulum from regenerating rat liver. 1977

Z Khalkhali, and F Serafini-Cessi, and R D Marshall

The UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-asparagine-sequon N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity in preparations of rough endoplasmic reticulum from rat liver is less than 1% of that in preparations from rabbit liver. The activity of the enzyme is increased about 20-fold in preparations from regenerating rat liver within 48h after partial hepatectomy. A smaller, but still marked, increase (8-10-fold) occurs in preparations of rough endoplasmic reticulum from sham-operated rats.

D002846	Chromatography, Affinity	A chromatographic technique that utilizes the ability of biological molecules, often ANTIBODIES, to bind to certain ligands specifically and reversibly. It is used in protein biochemistry.

D004721	Endoplasmic Reticulum	A system of cisternae in the CYTOPLASM of many cells. In places the endoplasmic reticulum is continuous with the plasma membrane (CELL MEMBRANE) or outer membrane of the nuclear envelope. If the outer surfaces of the endoplasmic reticulum membranes are coated with ribosomes, the endoplasmic reticulum is said to be rough-surfaced (ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM, ROUGH); otherwise it is said to be smooth-surfaced (ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM, SMOOTH).

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
