✦ Synopsis


A method for the analysis of low levels of the enzyme y-ghrtamyltransferase in biological samples by high-performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection is described. A y-glutamyl moiety from ghrtathione is transferred by the enzyme to glycylglycine to produce a tripeptide which is assayed directly after a purification step using octadecylsihca. Confirmation of the method is by use of the inhibitor AT-125. The method is used to measure the level of enzyme activity in rodent tissues and in cultured cells. 0 1986 Academic PESS, h.

The tripeptide glutathione (␥-glutamylcysteinylglycine; GSH) is the predominant low molecular mass thiol in cells. The function of GSH is of considerable interest, with the molecule being implicated in numerous cellular processes in addition to being a major cellular antioxidant. The enzyme glutamat

A method has been developed for assay of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) in brain tissue or in other tissues containing low ALDH-activity. The aldehyde of dopamine was used as the substrate, and the 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid formed was measured using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)
