The biosynthesis of carnitine from lysine and methionine involves five enzymatic reactions. γ-butyrobetaine hydroxylase (BBH; EC 1.14.11.1) is the last enzyme of this pathway. It catalyzes the reaction of hydroxylation of γ-butyrobetaine to carnitine. This enzyme had never been purified to homogeneity from rat tissue. This paper describes the purification and characterization of the rat liver BBH. This protein has been purified some 413 fold by ion exchange, affinity and gel-filtration… CONTINUE READING
