A microsomal exoribonuclease from rat liver
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Enzymology, 1979A exoribonuclease has been purified from the microsomes of rat liver. The enzyme had an apparent molecular weight of 80 000-83 000 and produced, via a processive mechanism, 5'-AMP as the only product from poly(A). The degradation was found to proceed in the 3' to 5' direction.

Chromate metabolism in liver microsomes
Biological Trace Element Research, 1979The carcinogenicity and mutagenicity of various chromium compounds have been found to be markedly dependent on the oxidation state of the metal. The carcinogen chromate was reduced to chromium(III) by rat liver microsomes in vitro. Metabolism of chromate by microsomal enzymes occurred only in the presence of either NADPH or NADH as cofactor.

The interaction of cimetidine with rat liver microsomes
Biochemical Pharmacology, 1983The binding of cimetidine to rat liver microsomes in M/15 phosphate buffer, pH 7.9, has been investigated by difference spectroscopy and also by equilibrium partition studies, the latter method providing the more definitive characterization of the interaction in the pharmacologically relevant, low micromolar range of drug concn. In addition, the effect

Esterification of cholesterol in rat liver microsomes
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1964Washed rat liver microsomes esterify cholesterol in the presence of added ATP and CoA; net synthesis of cholesterol esters was demonstrated. The optimum pH of the reaction was between 6.8 and 7.2; the effects of time and concentration of substrate were investigated.

Metabolism of doxophylline by rat liver microsomes.
Drug Metabolism and Disposition, 1986The metabolic transformation of the bronchospasmolytic agent doxophylline (2-(7'-theophyllinemethyl)-1,3-dioxolane) was studied in vitro with phenobarbital-induced rat liver microsomal fraction containing the NADPH-generating system. Doxophylline was poorly metabolized as 95% of the recovered material was parent compound. The major metabolite resulted:

Metabolism of Dietary Flavonoids in Liver Microsomes
Current Drug Metabolism, 2013Flavonoids undergo substantial hepatic metabolism and the metabolites might significantly contribute to the effects of these dietary constituents. The metabolites of flavonoids in liver can be summarized as follows: 1) For flavones, the hydroxylation appears to occur at the C-4'-, C-3', C-6 and C-8- position when there is a single or no hydroxy group ...

FRACTIONATION OF MOUSE LIVER MICROSOMAL ESTERASES
Canadian Journal of Biochemistry, 1965Mouse liver microsomal esterases were fractionated on DEAE-cellulose after the solution of these enzymes in a solution containing 0.1 M glycyl glycine buffer, pH 7.0, and 5 × 10−4 M Lubrol W, a nonionic detergent. Elution of the enzymes from the DEAE-cellulose was accomplished by using NaCl in the glycyl glycine – Lubrol W solution.

Mechanism of reduction of nitrofurantoin on liver microsomes
Pharmacological Research Communications, 1980Summary Reduction of the nitro-group of nitrofurantoin /N-[5-Nitro-2-furfuryliden-] 1-aminohydantoin/ on liver microsomes is supported both by NADPH and NADH. The site of interaction of nitrofurantoin with microsomes appears to be on two flavoproteins, NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase and NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase; interaction with the former ...

THE MECHANISM OF SCHRADAN ACTIVATION BY LIVER MICROSOMES
Canadian Journal of Biochemistry and Physiology, 1957The mechanism by which schradan is converted to a powerful anticholinesterase by fortified liver homogenates has been studied. A scheme is proposed involving the production from DPNH of hydrogen peroxide, which then oxidizes an unknown microsomal factor with the aid of catalase. The factor in turn oxidizes schradan.

The lipid composition of human liver microsomes
Lipids, 1982AbstractThe lipid composition of human liver microsomes isolated from liver biopsy samples obtained at abdominal surgery has been determined. Human liver microsomal phospholipid is composed of 49% phosphatidylcholine, 31% phosphatidylethanolamine, 14% phosphatidylserine+phosphatidylinositol and 6% sphingomyelin, very similar to the phospholipid ...
