摘要: Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on the fatty acid α-hydroxylase. The rat brain α-hydroxylase shows a pH optimum of 7.8. mentions two different procedures that are routinely used. One is based selective formation insoluble copper chelate hydroxy acids and other release radioactivity to water from specifically labeled its 2R-position with tritium. method reliable, specific, reproducible; however, it very time-consuming tedious requires well trained personnel run. On hand, second method, tritium substrate, relatively simple quick. However, not as reliable method: in some instances, [2R- 3 H] lignoceric released soluble compound even when no a-hydroxylation activity was detected by method. enzymic appears be severely inhibited any trace detergent.
