✦ Synopsis


A galactose oxidase (EC 1.1.3.9):NADH-peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.1) coupled assay system is used for the estimation of galactose oxidase activity. Spectrophotometric measurement of NADH consumption yields direct quantitative value of enzymic activity or can be used for the end-point determination of the amount of galactose oxidase substrate present in test solutions. Use of similar coupled systems is suggested for the assay of other H,O,-producing enzymes and their substrates.

Reduced pyridine nucleotide and ammonia are required in equimolar amounts for the enzymic synthesis of glutamate from cr-ketoglutarate. Thus ammonia can be determined spectrophotometrically using NADH, a-ketoglutarate, and NADH-dependent glutamic acid dehydrogenase. With this reaction, the activity

A modification of the original microdistillation assay for lysyl oxidase is described in which Amicon C-10 microconcentrators are used to separate, by ultrafiltration, the 3H-labeled products released from a [4,5-3H]-lysine-labeled elastin substrate. Enzyme activity is determined by scintillation co

## Abstract The active site of the enzyme galactose oxidase (GOase) contains square‐pyramidal monocopper site, one of whose ligands is a tyrosinate side‐chain that is oxidized to an unusually stable radical in the active enzyme. The structure of this non‐innocent tyrosinate is unique in two ways. F
