A simple spectrophotometric assay for arogenate dehydratase, tile enzyme that catalyzes the formation of L-phenylalanine from L-arogenate, is presented. The method couples the arogenate dehydratase reaction with that of an aromatic aminotransferase partially purified from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus

Pyruvate kinase (PK) (EC 2.7.1.40, ATP:pyruvate phosphotransferase) is one of the two enzymes in glycolysis involved in substrate phosphorylation. It catalyzes the following reaction: phosphoenolpyruvate + ADP -+ pyruvate i-ATP (-4)
A direct UV-VIS spectrophotometric assay has been developed for peptide deformylase. This assay employs a novel class of peptide mimetics as deformylase substrates which, upon enzymatic removal of the Nterminal formyl group, rapidly release free thiols. The released thiols are quantitated using Ellm
Vitamin D3 active metabolites 24R,25-(OH)2-D3, 24S,25-(OH)2-D3, and 1 alpha, 24R,25-(OH)3-D3 were synthesized by a convergent and stereoselective approach. In the synthetic route, the stereogenic center at C-24 was generated through ultrasonically induced aqueous conjugate addition of iodide 6 to Se
Herein we report the development of a direct and continuous spectrophotometric method for determining transglutaminase (TGase) activity by using N,Ndimethyl-1,4-phenylenediamine (DMPDA) as a β₯-glutamyl acceptor substrate and carbobenzyloxy-Lglutamylglycine (Z-Gln-Gly) as a typical peptide β₯-glutamyl
