Abstract
Summary
Washed rat liver particles were subected to treatment isobutanol in the presence of dilute solution of carboxymethylcellulose sodium salt and phosphate buffer at ice bath temperature. The resulting extract, after being freed from isobutanol, contained a water soluble catalytic system capable of transferring electrons from DPN · H2 or TPN · H2 to cytochrome C. The possible identity of a heme protein—like component, with cytochrome B and other enzyme properties of the extract (peroxidase, DPN—ase) are discussed.
