Title: Kinetic studies on the enzymes conjugating bile acids with taurine and glycine in bovine liver. Author: Vessey DA, Crissey MH, Zakim D. Journal: Biochem J; 1977 Apr 01; 163(1):181-3. PubMed ID: 869918. Abstract: Synthesis of glyco- or tauro-cholate from choloyl-CoA and the respective amino acid is shown to be catalysed by the soluble fraction of liver cells. Kinetic evidence supports the conclusion that there are separate enzymes for the synthesis of glycocholate and taurocholate. The kinetic parameters of these enzymes were determined.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
