Departamento de Ciencias Básicas, Universidad Nacional de Luján, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The evolution of arginase activity during development of Bufo arenarum embryos was studied. The enzyme activity was detected after the neural groove stage, being low at the following early stages and increasing progressively until the end of the embryonic development. Arginase activity was first found in the neurula stage, when an outline of basic structures for renal and hepatic function is present. The activity increased two- or three-fold at the beginning of the larval stages.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D012044	Regression Analysis	Procedures for finding the mathematical function which best describes the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. In linear regression (see LINEAR MODELS) the relationship is constrained to be a straight line and LEAST-SQUARES ANALYSIS is used to determine the best fit. In logistic regression (see LOGISTIC MODELS) the dependent variable is qualitative rather than continuously variable and LIKELIHOOD FUNCTIONS are used to find the best relationship. In multiple regression, the dependent variable is considered to depend on more than a single independent variable.

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.

D001119	Arginase	A ureahydrolase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of arginine or canavanine to yield L-ornithine (ORNITHINE) and urea. Deficiency of this enzyme causes HYPERARGININEMIA. EC 3.5.3.1.
