dc.description.abstractThe effect of Ca2+ on kinetics and thermodynamics of lipid peroxidation in microsomes prepared from liver of male Swiss albino mice (7-8 weeks old) was studied. Ca2+ was found to increase the Vmax in temperature dependent manner. Michaelis-Menten constant (Km) also increased with temperature. However, the linearity and extent of change in Km remained unaffected in presence of Ca2+, and was suggestive of non-competitive and mixed type of activation. The activation constant (Ka) obtained by the replotting of slopes of the Lineweaver-Burk plots against the reciprocal of Ca2+ concentration showed linear variation with temperature. The linear pattern of Arrhenius plots indicated non-involvement of parallel reactions of other intermediate species in the lipid peroxidation. Thermodynamic parameters delta H degree, delta S degree and delta G degree, associated with lipid peroxidation process were studied. The positive value of delta H degree is suggestive of the endothermic nature of the process. It appears that the NADPH induced lipid peroxidation is an entropy driven process.en_US
