Studies on Plant Urease and its Applications. Edition No. 1

VDM Publishing House, November 2009, Pages: 264

Urease was the first enzyme to be crystallized and the
first shown to require nickel ions. Recent interest in urease
has centered on its action as a virulence factor, such as its
participation in gastroduodenal infections by H. pylori.
First chapter of the book deals with the detailed literature
review and is divided into three sections: I-urease,
II-protein renaturation and III- Biosensors and
Immobilization. Chapter 2 is devoted to urease renaturation
and is divided into Section I: Investigations of conditions
for urease renaturation and Section II: Mechanism of
L-Arginine induced renaturation. Chapter 3 deals with Section
I: urease immobilization on Cellulose paper strips for urea
estimation and Section II: Improved stability of urease upon
coupling to alkylamine and arylamine glass and its analytical
use. Chapter 4 deals with a single section on urease
biosensor. The preparation and characterization of
bifunctional needle-type urea microbiosensors are presented.
Last chapter (Chapter 5) deals with urease inhibition and is
divided into Section I: Urease inhibition by boric and
boronic acids Section II: pH inactivation studies.
