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.
Imidazole: an inhibitor of L-phenylalanine-insensitive alkaline phosphatases of tissues other than intestine and placenta. 1. Alkaline phosphatases (orthophosphoric monoester phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.1) from brain, kidney, liver, bone, lung and spleen, which are not very sensitive to l-phenylalanine, are strongly inhibited by imidazole, whereas the placental and intestinal enzymes, which are very sensitive to l-phenylalanine, are only slightly affected. This is a new possibility for distinguishing the alkaline phosphatase isoenzymes.
2. The inhibition is apparently of an uncompetitive type, suggesting that the inhibitor interacts with the ES complex to form an EIS complex.
3. Histidine acts upon all enzyme...
Chemical and immunochemical studies on pregnant mare serum gonadotropin. Highly purified pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) can be prepared from crude commercial preparations of PMSG by chromatography on sulfoethyl-Sephadex C-50 and gel filtration on Sephadex G-100. The preparation was examined by disc electrophoresis and gel filtration and found to be of high purity. Amino acid analysis shows similarities to pituitary gonadotropins. The PMSG contains a high content of proline and cystine and low amounts of the aromatic amino acids. Phenylalanine is the major amino terminal amino acid. The carbohydrate content totals 45% of which 10% is the content of sialic a...
Structure of horse-muscle phosphoglycerate kinase at 6 angstrom resolution. The single peptide chain of 3-phosphoglycerate kinase is folded into two distinct globular units, only one of which seems to be involved in substrate binding.
