Calcium dependence of rat brain tryptophan hydroxylase
Abstract:
The effects of various concentrations of ionized Ca were examined on the activity of rat brain tryptophan hydroxylase previously treated with EGTA. Within the range of ionized Ca-concentrations though to be physiologically important (10(-8) to 10(-5) M), no significant activation of the enzyme occurred, although activation was observed at higher concentrations of the metal.
