Aspartate aminotransferase isoenzymes
Clinical Biochemistry, 1990Aspartate aminotransferase (AST, EC 2.6.1.1) exists in human tissues as two distinct isoenzymes, one located in the cytoplasm (c-AST), and the other in mitochondria (m-AST). Striated muscle, myocardium, and liver tissues are the main sources of AST. A growing body of information suggests that determination of AST isoenzymes in human serum is useful in ...

Stability of aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase activities.
The Journal of laboratory and clinical medicine, 1983Because there are conflicting data regarding the effect of different temperatures and durations of storage on the stability of the activities of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT), a new study has been conducted to re-examine this important issue.

The binding of bromophenol blue to aspartate aminotransferase
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1976Abstract Several experiments are presented that suggest that the sulfonphthalein dye, bromophenol blue, binds at, or near to, the active site of pig heart extramitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.1.). The binding is characterized at pH 8.0 by a bathochromic shift in the dye's visible spectrum from 590 to 599 nm.

Glycation of Aspartate Aminotransferase and Conformational Flexibility
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2000Glycation of proteins alters biological function and changes cellular processes. Our study investigated the conformational changes that accompany glycation using the cardiac aspartate aminotransferase (cAAT). We examined the effects of brief and prolonged exposure of cAAT to glyceraldehyde (Glyc) and ribose 5-phosphate (R5P).

The rotational relaxation time of aspartate aminotransferase
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Protein Structure, 1967Abstract Two independent methods, sucrose density centrifugation and polarization of fluorescence, were used to study the molecular state of the enzyme aspartate amino-transferase at concentrations approaching those used in the enzymatic assays. 1. 1.

Inhibition of coenzyme activation of aspartate aminotransferase
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1983Forty compounds were surveyed for their effect on the activation of pig heart apoaspartate aminotransferase by pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate. Most of the nucleotides, sugar phosphates, coenzymes, phospholipid precursors and inorganic oxyanions tested were found to be inhibitory.

Determination of mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase in serum
Clinica Chimica Acta, 1986Two specific and sensitive immunoassay methods for the determination of mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase (m-AST) are described. One is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay which measures immunologically active m-AST using polystyrene balls coated with anti-m-AST antibody and peroxidase-labelled anti-m-AST antibody as the second antibody. The detection

Redesign of aspartate aminotransferase specificity to that of tyrosine aminotransferase
1994The values of kcat/Km are strongly correlated with chain length for the reactions of E. coli tyrosine aminotransferase, but are nearly independent of this variable for aspartate aminotransferase. Both enzymes exhibit nearly equal reactivity with dicarboxylic acid substrates.

Aspartate aminotransferase in the brain of the developing rat
Life Sciences, 1965Abstract The biochemical immaturity of the rat brain at birth has been largely investigated in recent years (see for references, Sperry, 1955, 1962; Himwich, 1962). It has been tempting to relate neurochemical data to older findings on the physiological maturation of the organ.
