GDH(EC 1.4.1.2)广泛分布于植物中,和谷氨酸合成酶(GOGAT)共同参与谷氨酸的合成,在氨同化和转化成有机氮化合物的代谢中起重要作用。
测定原理:GDH催化NH₄⁺、α-酮戊二酸和NADH,生成谷氨酸和NAD⁺,引起340nm吸光度下降。通过测定340nm吸光度的下降速率,计算GDH活性。
Glutamate Dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.2) is widely distributed in plants. Together with Glutamine Synthase (GOGAT), it participates in the synthesis of glutamate and plays a crucial role in the metabolism of ammonia assimilation and its conversion into organic nitrogen compounds.
Assay Principle: GDH catalyzes the reaction of NH₄⁺, α-ketoglutarate, and NADH to produce glutamate and NAD⁺, resulting in a decrease in absorbance at 340 nm. The activity of GDH is calculated by measuring the rate of decrease in absorbance at 340 nm.
