Application

This enzyme is useful for enzymatic determination of NH3, α-ketoglutaric acid and L-glutamic acid, and for assay of leucine aminopeptidase and urease. This enzyme is also used for enzymatic determination of urea when coupled with urease (URH-201) in clinical analysis. In vitro, various activity assays of this enzyme examine the conversion of α-ketoglutarate to L-glutamate, in the presence of excess ammonium ions (NH4+) and NADPH.

Biochem/physiol Actions

L-glutamic dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversion of glutamate to α-ketoglutarate[1][2].

Physical form

Solution in 50 mM Tris HCl, pH 7.8, 5 mM Na2EDTA containing 0.05% sodium azide

Other Notes

Note: Do not confuse with non-specific L-GLDH, EC 1.4.1.3.
One unit will reduce 1.0 μmole of α-ketoglutarate to L-glutamate per min at pH 8.3 at 30 °C in the presence of ammonium ions and NADPH.
