Abstract | dc.description.abstract | 4-Dimethylaminophenethylamine (DMAPEA) was characterized
as an MAO substrate. This compound was unaffected by
MAO-A, while its oxidation by MAO-B was linear as a
function of both time and enzyme concentration, with Km
= 5.8 ~M and Vmax = 21.2 pmol/min/mg protein, using a
crude rat brain mitochondrial suspension as source of MAO.
Both DMAPEA and its oxidation product,
4-dimethylaminophenylacetic acid (DMAPAA) , can be detected
electrochemically at 0.85 V. The high MAO-B affinity and
selectivity of DMAPEA, together with its low oxidation
potential, make this molecule a unique tool to determine
MAO-B activity in a wide variety of tissue preparations
using HPLC-ED. | es_CL |
