The study of biochemistry in horses encompasses the chemical processes and substances that occur within equine organisms. This field investigates the molecular interactions and pathways that are fundamental to horse physiology, including metabolism, enzyme activity, and genetic expression. Key areas of interest include the examination of metabolic disorders, nutrient absorption, and the biochemical basis of muscle function and energy production. Researchers utilize biochemical analysis to understand health and disease mechanisms in horses, contributing to the development of diagnostic tools and therapeutic strategies. This page gathers peer-reviewed studies and scholarly articles that explore various biochemical processes and their implications for equine health and performance.
Alkaline isomerization of ferricytochrome c: identification of the lysine ligand. Changes in the visible absorbance spectra of complexes of horse heart cytochrome c hemopeptide 1-65, peptide 66-104, and their guanidinated counterparts are compared with those characteristic of native and fully guanidinated ferricytochrome c over the pH range 7 to 11. Upon raising the pH, the methionine ligand in the guanidinated hemopeptide 1-65.peptide 66-104 complex is replaced by a strong field ligand. By contrast, the methionine ligand in the hemopeptide 1-65.guanidinated peptide 66-104 is replaced by a weak field ligand. These results demonstrate that lysine 13 does not ligate with the ...
Purification and antigenicity of an M-like protein of Streptococcus equi. A cell wall component of Streptococcus equi analogous to the M protein of group A streptococci has been identified and purified. A highly purified product has been obtained from cells by hot acid extraction, followed by acid precipitation, ammonium sulfate fractionation, and column chromatography. This product reacts with S. equi antiserum. The existence of this fraction in S. equi has been confirmed by the failure of trypsin-treated cells and their extracts to remove the long-chaining capacity of S. equi antiserum. The antigenicity of this M-like protein when incorporated in adjuvant has been...
Fractionation of iodinated particles and mitochondria from thyroid by zonal centrifugation and a study of their heterogeneity. 1. The subcellular particles of horse and rat thyroids were fractionated in a B XIV zonal rotor on a non-linear gradient of Ficoll after labelling with radioactive iodine in vitro (horse) or in vivo (rat). In the horse, the resulting fractions were analysed for radioactive iodine, protein and enzymes representative of certain subcellular particles. In the rat, iodine turnover and thyrotrophin stimulation were studied. 2. The population of iodinated particles could be subdivided into three main classes, characterized by differences in beta-galactosidase and acid phosphatase content and position...
