Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
cysteine effect of cysteine on arginase activity, effect of increasing concentrations of cysteine alone or in combination with iron (II) sulfate on the enhancement of arginase activity in human sickle erythrocytes or purified arginase-1 from Bos taurus liver Bos taurus
FeSO4 effect of cysteine on arginase activity, effect of increasing concentrations of cysteine alone or in combination with iron (II) sulfate on the enhancement of arginase activity in human sickle erythrocytes or purified arginase-1 from Bos taurus liver Bos taurus

Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine new forms of efficient arginase inhibitors, could be useful as therapeutic regimen in hemoglobinopathies and other related inflammation-mediated diseases Bos taurus

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
additional information combined polyethylene glycol, covalently linked to superoxide dismutase with a highly stable PEG-catalase, further decrease of arginase activity is observed; salicylic acid derivatives potently inhibited arginase activity. More significant inhibition of arginase activity in purified arginase-1 than in erythrocyte hemolysate, possibly due to the presence of increased extraneous macromolecular interactions in cell hemolysate than in purified enzyme Bos taurus
PEG-SOD polyethylene glycol, covalently linked to superoxide dismutase. Significantly inhibits the arginase activity induced by cysteine-iron, indicating that oxygen species may be responsible in part for the observed increase in arginase activity Bos taurus
