Journal Article

Mouse liver thiol methyltransferase. Assay conditions, biochemical properties, and strain variation.

TL;DR: Since the properties of TMT in mouse liver are similar to those of the enzyme in human tissue, the inbred mouse will be a useful experimental animal model in which to study the regulation and function of T MT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dopamine-β-hydroxylase activity in serum

TL;DR: This chapter describes the dopamines- β -hydroxylase (DBH) activity in serum, which is biochemically similar to DBH activity in the adrenal medulla and sympathetic nerves with regard to co-factor requirements, requirement for oxygen; Michaelis–Menten constant for substrate, and response to the addition of cupric ion to inhibit endogenous inhibitors of the enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dual Roles for the TSPYL Family in Mediating Serotonin Transport and the Metabolism of Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors in Patients with Major Depressive Disorder.

TL;DR: Dual roles for TSPYLs in mediating serotonin transport and the metabolism of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) in patients with major depressive disorder are observed and genetic variation in TSPyl genes may be novel indicators for baseline severity of depression and SSRI poor response.
