Purification and characterization of human biliverdin reductase.

Archives of biochemistry and biophysics - 1 Jan 1993

Maines M D, Trakshel G M

Abstract excerpt

Conversion of biliverdin to bilirubin is catalyzed by the cytosolic enzyme biliverdin reductase. We have purified and characterized the human liver reductase and find it to differ extensively from the previously described rat enzyme (H. Fakhrai and M. D. Maines, 1992, J. Biol. Chem. 267, 4023-4029) in its primary structure/composition, yet share kinetic properties. The human enzyme is substantially larger than...
