A simple and rapid method to screen for mutant mice (Mus musculus) lacking D-amino-acid oxidase activity has been devised. Mice were given water containing small amounts (0.02%) of either D-methionine or D-phenylalanine. Urinary levels of the D-amino acid were examined using thin-layer chromatography. Some mice excreted substantial amounts of the D-amino acid through the urine. None of them had detectable D-amino-acid oxidase activity.
已设计出一种简单快速的方法来筛选缺乏D-氨基酸氧化酶活性的突变小鼠(小家鼠)。给小鼠饮用含有少量(0.02%)D-蛋氨酸或D-苯丙氨酸的水。使用薄层色谱法检测尿液中D-氨基酸的水平。一些小鼠通过尿液排出大量的D-氨基酸。它们均未检测到D-氨基酸氧化酶活性。
