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, 4023-402...
