Maat


Definition:

  • (12) The effects of testosterone on mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase (mAAT) synthesis in rat ventral prostate was investigated.
  • (13) cAAT was highest in the photoreceptor inner segments, inner nuclear layer and inner plexiform layer; mAAT was highest in the inner segments.
  • (14) cAAT activity was also highest in the inner segments, but the difference between the activity in the inner segments and the other layers was not nearly as great as with mAAT.
  • (15) Cytosolic and mitochondrial pig aspartate aminotransferases (cAAT and mAAT) and chicken cAAT were oriented in a compressed slab of polyacrylamide gel.
  • (16) Maat medium improved the purity and longevity of neuronal cultures.
  • (17) As a result of protonation, the coenzyme tilts by 27 degrees in cAAT and 13 degrees in mAAT.
  • (18) Insertion of an 18-nucleotide-long poly(G) tract into the 3'-terminal untranslated region of yeast phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK1) mRNA increases its chemical half-life by about a factor of 2 (P. Vreken, R. Van der Veen, V. C. H. F. de Regt, A. L. de Maat, R. J. Planta, and H. A. Raué, Biochimie 73:729-737, 1991).
  • (19) Prolactin (PRL) has been reported to stimulate citrate production and the activity of mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase (mAAT) and its precursor form pmAAT in prostate epithelial cells.
  • (20) The differences in the coenzyme tilt angles between cAAT and mAAT might be linked to catalytic peculiarities of the isoenzymes.
