✦ Synopsis


A new method using hydrophobic interaction chromatography on phenyl-Sepharose was developed to purify branched chain Lu-ketoacid dehydrogenase complex from commercially available frozen rat liver. Yields of greater than 50% were routinely achieved. The purified enzyme, composed of Elc~, El& and E2 subunits, appeared homogeneous on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and contained endogenous kinase activity for phosphorylation and inactivation of the complex.

We previously reported that the human Y' bile acid binder, which has higher bile acid binding affinities than rat Y' binders (3a-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases), has dihydrodiol dehydrogenase activity and is different from 3a-hydroxyeteroid dehydrogenases. In this study, 3a-hydmxyeteroid dehydrogenas
