Title: A new enzyme that specifically inactivates apo-protein of pyridoxal enzymes
Abstract: We found a new inactivating enzyme in small intestine and skeletal muscles, which specifically reacts with apo-proteins of pyridoxal enzymes. This inactivating enzyme does not react with all the non-pyridoxal enzymes tested. The inactivation by this enzyme is prevented by the addition of PALP. The enzyme splits apo-pyridoxal enzymes into smaller protein and oligopeptides. The activity of inactivating enzyme increases from 10–20 fold only in the case of B6 deficiency compaired with that of normal rats.
