Immunoglobulin-Complexed Aspartate Aminotransferase.
Internal Medicine, 1993 We report a case of increased aspartate aminotransferase (AST, EC 2.6.1.1; GOT) in a 17-year-old girl which persisted for 3 years. The patient was healthy, but a high level of serum AST was detected during a school health check. Further examination revealed that AST was increased to as high as 259 IU/l while alanine aminotransferase (ALT) was normal ...

TK2268 encodes the major aminotransferase involved in the conversion from oxaloacetic acid to aspartic acid in Thermococcus kodakarensis [PDF]
Applied and Environmental MicrobiologyAmino acid metabolism in archaea in many cases differs from those reported in bacteria and eukaryotes. The hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus kodakarensis possesses an incomplete tricarboxylic cycle, and the biosynthesis pathway of aspartate is ...

Association Between Cadmium Exposure and Liver Function in Adults in the United States: A Cross-sectional Study [PDF]
Journal of Preventive Medicine and Public Health, 2021 Objectives Cadmium is widely used, leading to extensive environmental and occupational exposure. Unlike other organs, for which the harmful and carcinogenic effects of cadmium have been established, the hepatotoxicity of cadmium remains unclear.

Association between Serum Liver Enzymes and Cardiovascular Diseases: A Case-control Study among Adults with Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2022 Introduction: Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of global morbidity and mortality. However, their prevalence is disproportionately distributed, with the highest rate in low-income countries, moderate in middle-income countries, and the

Acylation of aspartate aminotransferase [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1967 1. Acetylation of aspartate aminotransferase from pig heart inhibits completely the enzymic activity when the coenzyme is in the amino form (pyridoxamine phosphate) or when the coenzyme has been removed, but not when the coenzyme is in the aldehyde form (pyridoxal phosphate). 2.

MACRO-ASPARTATE AMINOTRANSFERASE
Hepatology and Gastroenterology, 2021 Measurement of serum enzyme activity is one of the most common laboratory tests. Increased activity may be caused by abnormal enzymes with a high molecular mass, the so-called macroenzymes. Macroenzymes may be seen in healthy subjects, but can also be related to disease. Macro-aspartate aminotransferase (macro-AST) is a macroenzyme that results from an
