Title: On the non-enzymic transamination of γ-aminobutyric acid
Abstract: Investigation of chemical transamination between pyridoxal or pyridoxal phosphate and the γ-aminobutyric acid has been carried out. It has thus been possible to give evidence for imine formation and for transamination between pyridoxal or pyridoxal phosphate and γ-aminobutyric acid. Pyridoxal, imine, and pyridoxamine have been separated by paper chromatography. Absorption spectra and behavior in acid and alkaline solutions are consistent with the hydrogen-bonded imine structure.
