β¦ Synopsis
An HPLC method has been developed for the assay of cytidine monophosphate-sialic acid synthetase (EC 2.7.7.43) using ion-pair chromatography and gradient elution. This procedure permits the assay of alternative substrates and inhibitors of the enzyme and is not subject to the limitation of the colorimetric method. The newly synthesized N-acetyl-9-deoxy-9-fluoro-D-neuraminic acid was found to be a good substrate of the enzyme with a Km of 6.35 mM as compared to 1.84 mM for N-acetylneuraminic acid.

We describe a quantitative assay for diaminopimelic acid (DAP) in urine. It involves (i) hydrolysis of urine samples, (ii) purification by several different liquid chromatography steps, and (iii) analysis by high-performance liquid chromatography on a reversed-phase C18 column. Tritiated-DAP, the in
An improved fluorometric HPLC method for sialic acid determination was developed by employing synthetic N-propionylneuraminic acid (NPNA) as an internal standard. A fixed amount of NPNA was added to a sialoglycoconjugate sample. After hydrolyzing sialioglycoconjugates with diluted sulfuric acid, the
The activity of peptidylarginine deiminase (PAD) has generally been assayed by a colorimetric method using N-benzoyl-L-arginine ethyl ester (BAEE) and Nbenzoyl-L-arginine (Bz-L-Arg) as the substrates. The widespread occurrence of citrulline and urea in tissues makes use of this method difficult, esp
