- Enzyme activity is generallygreatest when substrate concentration is unlimiting.
- Enzyme activity is a measurement of how potent a particular enzyme is and will vary from batch to batch for the same enzyme even when using the same methodology for assigning an activity value.
- Hepatic lipase mRNA, protein, and plasma enzyme activity is increased in the insulin-resistant, fructose-fed Syrian golden hamster and is partially normalized by the insulin sensitizer rosiglitazone.
- Mitochondrial malic enzyme activity is much higher in mitochondria from cortical synaptic terminals compared with mitochondria from primary cultures of cortical neurons or cerebellar granule cells.
