Measurement of 5-aminolaevulinate synthase activity by gas-liquid chromatography with electron-capture detection.

A Gorchein1.   

Abstract

A specific assay for 5-aminolaevulinate synthase activity is described, with a sensitivity comparable with that of radiochemical assays. It is based on measurement by g.l.c. with electron-capture detection of the pentafluorobenzyl ester of the ethyl acetoacetate pyrrole derivative of 5-aminolaevulinic acid, and of the corresponding compound from 6-amino-5-oxohexanoic acid used as internal standard. Enzyme activity has been measured in homogenates of rat liver, spleen, kidney and brain, and in human lymphocytes.
