[Modification of histidine residues with diethylpyrocarbonate in aspartate transaminases from pig and chicken heart cytosol].
One and three histidine residues react with diethylpyrocarbonate (DEP) at pH 6.5 in native aspartate transminases from cffect on the enzyme activity. The rest histidine residues in aspartate transaminases (approximately 6 in the chicken enzyme and 5 in the pig enzyme) are DEP-nonreactive and can be carbetoxylated only after protein denaturation. The presence of substrates does not affect the histidine modification in transaminases.
