Activity of AMP deaminase and 5′-nucleotidase in the cytosolic kidney fraction of rats under the conditions of different protein and sucrose

Abstract

The goal of this work was to evaluate the activity of AMP deaminase and 5-nucleotidase in the cytosolic kidney fraction of rats under the conditions of different protein and sucrose content in a diet. The excessive consumption of sucrose against the background of alimentary protein deficiency is accompanied by an increase in AMP-deaminase and 5-nucleotidase activity in the cytosolic fraction of rat kidneys, which can be considered as a compensatory mechanism aimed at switching metabolic transformations in conditions of nutritional imbalance.
