Pyridoxal phosphate-dependent reactions in water pools.
Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, its Schiff base with L-alanine, and cytosolic aspartate aminotransferase were dissolved in isooctane solutions containing reverse micelles of the surfactant di-2-ethylhexylsodium sulfosuccinate and water. The physico-chemical properties of these compounds in the new environment have been studied.
