Popis: | SummaryGlutamic-aspartic transaminase is inactivated by sunlight and by ultraviolet light. Destruction of enzymatic activity by these agents parallels the destruction of vitamin B6, a derivative of which is present as the prosthetic group of the enzyme.1234 The irradiated enzyme is not reactivated by addition of pyridoxine, pyridoxal, pyridox-amine or boiled tissue extracts. Irradiation with X-rays leaves the enzyme intact. |
