A continuous fluorescence assay was adapted to the measurement of the phospholipase reaction of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT). The fluorescent phospholipid I-acyl-2-(N-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-I .3-diazole)aminocaproyl phosphatidylcholine (C,-NBD-PC) in micelle form reacted with LCAT to yiel

Recent studies in this laboratory (1, 2) have revealed new information about the mechanism of the phenylalanine hydroxylase reaction. Briefly, these experiments show that during hydroxylation the para substituent of the substrate, phenylalanine, migrates and appears on the meta position(s) of the pr
The fluorescent 2'-methylanthraniloyl derivative of cyclic GMP undergoes a 45% decrease in fluorescence when it is cleaved by brain phosphodiesterase in the presence of calmodulin. This fluorescence decrease is dependent upon calcium, calmodulin, and phosphodiesterase, and correlates well (r = 0.996
