## Abstract Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) catalyzes the oxidative deamination of glutamate to α‐ketoglutarate using NAD or NADP as cofactors. In mammalian brain, GDH is located predominantly in astrocytes, where it is probably involved in the metabolism of transmitter glutamate. The exact mechanism

Sulfolipids of mammalian origin include sulfosphingolipids, sulfoglycerolipids and steroid sulfates. Sulfosphingolipids (sulfogalactosylceramide) may be involved in sodium transport, interaction of opiates with their receptors, activation of oxygen radical generating system, and blood coagulation Fa

The use of L-glutamate dehydrogenase (GLUD) as a reagent in staining mixtures to detect the isozymes of enzymes which catalyze the production of ammonia has been investigated. Methods have been devised for the electrophoresis and detection, using GLUD, of seven enzymes: cytidine deaminase, adenosine
