Is N-acetylglutamate a short-term regulator of urea synthesis?
The Biochemical Journal
|March 15, 1984
Abstract:
A method is described for determining N-acetylglutamate as glutamate. N-Acetylglutamate content of hepatocytes from 48 h-starved rats is high. It shows no parallelism with rates of urea synthesis from glutamine. We question its accepted function as a short-term regulator of urea synthesis.
