This minireview deals the enzymatic transformation of some amino acids as arginine and ornithine, amines as tyramine, putrescine, spermine and spermidine, and other substances as nitric oxide and thiocyanate. These reactions, catalyzed by two proteins purified from the latex of Euphorbia characias, a copper/quinone containing amine oxidase and a cationic peroxidase, show enzymatic activity interactions probably occurring between these proteins in Euphorbia latex.
本篇综述涉及一些氨基酸(如精氨酸和鸟氨酸)、胺(如酪胺、腐胺、亚精胺和精胺)以及其他物质(如一氧化氮和硫氰酸盐)的酶促转化。这些反应由两种从大戟乳胶中纯化的蛋白质催化,一种是含有铜/醌的胺氧化酶,另一种是阳离子过氧化物酶,显示出这些蛋白质在大戟乳胶中可能发生的酶促活性相互作用。
