Aration


Definition:

  • (n.) Plowing; tillage.

Example Sentences:

  • (8) The specific activities of REH and ARAT were not affected by ZD.
  • (9) Ethanol ingestion decreased REH (P = 0.0001) and ARAT activities (P = 0.02) and increased cytochrome P-450 (P = 0.04) but had no effect on the activity of ADH in either age group.
  • (10) The enzymes studied were retinyl ester hydrolase (REH) and microsomal acyl coenzyme A:retinol acyl transferase (ARAT), the principal enzymes regulating retinyl ester hydrolysis and synthesis.

  • (12) Thus, when substrate was near or below Km, retinol esterification occurred predominantly by LRAT in the liver and ARAT in the mammary gland, respectively.
  • (13) ARAT catalyzed the synthesis of retinyl laurate when free retinol and lauroyl-CoA were provided as substrates.
  • (14) All three mutants were also determined to be resistant to the nucleotide analogs (S)-1-[(3-hydroxy-2- phosphonylmethoxy)propyl]adenine (HPMPA) and (S)-1-[(3-hydroxy-2-phosphonylmethoxy)propyl]cytosine (HPMPC) and hypersensitive to thymine-1-D-arabinofuranoside (AraT).
  • (15) Hepatic microsomal cytochrome P-450, retinyl ester hydrolase (REH) and cellular retinol-binding protein (cRBP) were significantly reduced; acyl coenzyme A: retinol acyltransferase (ARAT) was increased; and alcohol (retinol) dehydrogenase (ADH) activity was unchanged with age.
  • (16) The UVB- and retinol-induced ARAT activity was less dependent on exogenous palmitoyl-CoA than that of control microsomes and experiments indicated that this might be due to an increased endogenous concentration of long-chain acyl-CoA in the microsomes.
  • (17) Experiments with competitive and noncompetitive inhibitors of [3H]retinol esterification established that the epidermal enzyme was an acyl-CoA:retinol acyltransferase (ARAT; EC 2.3.1.76).
  • (18) The inhibition of ARAT by retinoic acid may be of importance for normal retinol absorption in patients receiving retinoid therapy.
  • (19) Additions of purine or pyrimidine arabinosides (araT, araC, and araA) to all cell lines resulted in a similar cytotoxicity, suggesting the anabolism of dTTP was not defective in the tr5 clone.
  • (20) Since the lacrimal gland contains stores of retinyl esters, it was the goal of this study to determine whether the lacrimal gland contains ARAT activity.
