摘要: Purified agaritine (N'-(gamma-L(+)-glutamyl)-p-hydroxymethylphenylhydrazine) isolated from Agaricus bisporus, p-hydrazinobenzoic acid (its presumptive precursor) and some agaritine-degradation products were tested for mutagenic activity with the Salmonella/mammalian microsome assay (Ames test). Consistent literature, showed a distinct direct-acting mutagenicity strain TA1537 (30 revertants/mumol) TA97. Incubation of at alkaline pH increased effect. Pre-incubation gamma-glutamyl transferase (GT) during 10 h room temperature (pH 8.2) even enhanced by factor 8 to 16 depending on strain. In accordance this finding, synthetic p-hydroxymethylphenylhydrazine (the product GT catalyzed degradation) also mutagenicity, but increase was only about 3- 6- times compared agaritine. The hypothetical ultimate metabolite agaritine, p-hydroxymethylbenzenediazonium ion, compound occurring naturally in A. highest (with approximately 300 1,000 revertants/mumol).
