Activating Compound | Comment | Organism | Structure |
---|---|---|---|
cytosolic Z protein | fatty acid-binding protein, membrane-bound enzyme, twofold to threefold activation, stimulatory activity is lost after solubilization of microsomal enzyme. Stimulation reversed by titration of Z-protein with either fatty acids or anti-Z-protein immunoglobulin. Stimulation not restored by incorporating partially purified reductase into an artificial phospholipid membrane | Rattus norvegicus | |
additional information | no activation by greatly increasing detergent concentration, Triton WR-1339, to a final concentration of 0.6%, no or poor activation by intestinal bile acid sequestrant, cholestyramine, no activation by bovine serum albumin | Rattus norvegicus |
