Mast cells isolated from rat peritoneal and pleural cavities were incubated in vitro with radioactively-labelled histamine (Hi), 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), dopamine (DA), noradrenaline (NA), tyramine (TA), phenylethylamine (PhEA), trptamine (TrpA), ephedrine (Eph) or amphetamine (Amph). All these
The topa quinone (TPQ) cofactor of copper amine oxidase is produced by posttranslational modification of a specific tyrosine residue through the copper-dependent, self-catalytic process. We have site-specifically mutated three histidine residues (His431, His433, and His592) involved in binding of
A molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) with dual dopamine/serotonin-like binding sites (DS-MIP) was synthesized for use as a receptor model of study the drug-interaction of biological mixed receptors at a molecular level. The polymer material was produced using methacrylic acid (MAA) and acrylamide
A piezoelectric microgravimetry (PM) chemosensor, featuring a film of molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) of poly[bis(2,2'-bithienyl)methane] bearing either a 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl or benzo-18-crown-6 substituent, for selective determination of dopamine was devised and tested. A Pt/quartz resonator
Copper amine oxidases (CAOs) catalyse the oxidation of various aliphatic amines to the corresponding aldehydes, ammonia and hydrogen peroxide. Although CAOs from various organisms share a highly conserved active-site structure including a protein-derived cofactor, topa quinone (TPQ), their substrate
The crystal structures of the copper enzyme phenylethylamine oxidase from the Gram-positive bacterium Arthrobacter globiformis (AGAO) have been determined and refined for three forms of the enzyme: the holoenzyme in its active form (at 2.2 A resolution), the holoenzyme in an inactive form (at 2.8 A
