摘要: The authors found that DOPA/5-HTP decarboxylase was present in the human seminal plasma and its activity lower fertile men than infertile men. Km Vmax of enzyme were, respectively, 0.88 × 10−6 M 19.8 pmol serotonin/mg protein/min. pyrldoxal-5′-phosphate (PLPHndependent, content PLP In subjects. A soluble, heat stable, diffusible inhibitor detected plasma. This naturally occurring capable reducing cat liver. Zinc inhibited both liver, suggesting involvement zinc, close relationship with PLP, decarboxylation mechanism. These findings suggest a between synthesis biogenic amines testicular function
