We have developed a rapid, sensitive, and specific assay for photoreactivation of pyrimidine dimers in 3H-labeled DNA. It is based on the nuclease resistance of dimercontaining sequences in DNA, and the adsorption of these sequences to DEAE-substituted paper (DE-81). The method maintains the advanta

An assay for arginase is described that uses L-[guanido-'"Clarginine as substrate. Unhydrolyzed arginine is removed in a batch procedure with sulfonate resin and the ['"Clurea product is determined quantitatively in the resin supernatant.

A simplified assay method is described for the determination of protein kinase activity. Enzymatic activity is followed by measuring the incorporation of 32P from the terminal phosphoryl group of nucleoside triphosphates into protein substrate. Separation of the resulting 32P-labeled phosphoprotein
Starch phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.1) and ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase (EC 2.7.7.27) activities can be measured very accurately and quickly using a recording pH meter. Activities less than 0.28 nmolimin are readily measured.
