dc.description.abstractStreptozotocin diabetic rats fed ad libitum exhibited hyperplasia of the small intestine. As compared to the control animals, the intestine of experimental animals grew in weight, length and total RNA and DNA contents. Intestinal cinnabarinate synthase activity in diabetic rats was however significantly lower. Developmental studies in albino rats indicated that, attainment of the terminal and highest activity of the enzyme tends to correspond with cessation of further increase in RNA and DNA contents of the intestine, thereby suggesting a possible relationship between cinnabarinate synthase and the hyperplastic changes observed. It was also observed that some properties of this enzyme, such as Km and Vmax are modified in diabetic condition. The enzyme was purified to apparent homogeneity and some of its kinetic and other properties were studied.en_US
