Ornithine carbamoyltransferase (EC 2.1.3.3) has been determined in homogenates of liver of the sei whale (Balaenoptera borealis), the bottle-nose dolphin (porpoise) (Tursiops truncatus) and California sea lion (Zalophus californianus). These marine mammals show levels of this ornithine-urea cycle enzyme which are typical of terrestrial mammals.
已对塞鲸(北极鲸)、宽吻海豚(鼠海豚)和加利福尼亚海狮的肝脏匀浆中的鸟氨酸氨甲酰基转移酶(EC 2.1.3.3)进行了测定。这些海洋哺乳动物体内这种鸟氨酸-尿素循环酶的水平与陆生哺乳动物的典型水平相当。
