Activating Compound

EC Number Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
2.6.1.13 retinoic acid treatment of cells induces increase in ornithine aminotransferase expression and activity which results in decreased intracellular concentrations of ornithine and polyamines putrescine, spermidine and spermine. Changes occur concomitantly with a decrease in the total number of cells, and the increase in ornithine aminotransferase activity is due to increased mRNA expression. In cells treated with 1 microM retinoic acid, addition of 10 microM putrescine to culture medium restores both cellular levels of polyamines and cell numbers to the values for the control group Homo sapiens
