Abstract

The rates of synthesis and degradation of mitochondrial phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP: oxaloacetate carboxy-lyase (transphosphorylating), EC 4.1.1.32) in the liver of tadpoles in the two developmental stages (stages VIII and XXII), and in those treated with 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine, were studied by immunochemical techniques. The rate of synthesis of the enzyme was found to be accelerated at 9 h and 6 days after triiodothyronine administration and also during natural metamorphic climax. No difference was observed in the degradation rate of the enzyme between the tadpoles in the two stages, VIII and XXII.

Biosynthetic Transformations

Biosyntheic transformtions are multi-step, enzyme-catalyzed processes where substrates are converted into more complex products in living organisms. Simple compounds are modified, converted into other compounds, or joined together to form macromolecules. Discover the latest research on biosynthetic transformations here.
