Abstract

The influence of fasting and cortisol treatment on the levels of arginosuccinate synthetase (E.C.6.3.4.5.), ARGINOSUCCINASe (E.C.4.3.2.1) and arginase (C.E.3.5.3.1) from guinea pig liver has been investigated.The results show a general increase in the levels of the mentioned enzymes, with specific enzyme synthesis for fasting, and unspecific for cortisol treatment.
