Abstract
A method for enzymatic assay of imidazole acetic acid (ImAA) was developed, based on the strict substrate specificity of imidazole acetate monooxygenase from Pseudomonas sp. [Maki et al. (1969) J. Biol. Chem., 244., 2942–2950], which catalyzes concomitant conversion of NADH to NAD +. Thus, ImAA was determined by measuring decrease in absorbancy at 340 nm. Tissue extracts were partially purified and/or concentrated by column chromatography on Bio-Rad AG-1 before enzymatic assay. The lowest measurable level of ImAA by this method was 2 nmol.
