Abstract:
A simple and rapid procedure, which takes advantage of the effectiveness of conventional and HPLC hydrophobic interaction, for the isolation of highly purified rat liver 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine decarboxylase is described in detail. Some of its structural and functional properties are reported and discussed in comparison with those of pig kidney 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine decarboxylase.
