Abstract excerpt
The level of catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT) activity and COMT thermal stability in human tissue are controlled by a common genetic polymorphism. We studied individual hepatic biopsy samples shown previously to have phenotypically high, low or intermediate COMT activities and thermal stabilities to test the hypothesis that the molecular mass (M(r)) and/or isoelectric point (pI) of the enzyme might differ in...
