Problems solved by technology

In a continuous enzyme-catalyzed process like the homocysteine ​​enzyme cycle, the product (intermediate product) of the previous enzyme is the substrate for the next enzyme-catalyzed reaction, and these enzymes are often in a free state, especially in liquid reagents. In , the distance between enzyme molecules is free and evacuated, and it is difficult to carry out any control, which restricts its catalytic efficiency.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for detecting homocysteine concentration, and the method is characterized in that to-be-detected substrate homocysteine is catalyzed by gene engineering fusion enzymes to obtain product adenosine, the adenosine production rate is in direct proportion to homocysteine content in a sample, and the homocysteine content in the sample can be detected by detecting the adenosine. The used gene engineering fusion enzymes are a fusion enzyme of homocysteine methyltransferase (EC2.1.1.10) and adenosine homocysteine enzyme (EC3.3.1.1), and a fusion enzyme of the adenosine homocysteine enzyme (EC3.3.1.1) and methionine adenosyltransferase (EC2.5.1.6). According to the method, an efficient fusion enzyme protein can be established for detecting the homocysteine, by use of efficient catalytic activity of the fusion enzymes, the sensitivity of ordinary enzymatic reaction and the stability of a detection reagent can be greatly improved, and a new methodological improvement area is proposed for an enzyme cycle detection method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical examination and determination, and in particular relates to a homocysteine ​​determination reagent. Background technique [0002] Homocysteine ​​(Homocysteine) is a sulfur-containing amino acid that is produced in cells by demethylation of methionine. Recent studies have shown that homocysteine ​​produces superoxide and peroxide damages vascular endothelial cells, changes the function of coagulation factors, increases the tendency of thrombosis, promotes atherosclerosis and thrombosis, and increases the incidence of cardiovascular diseases and Mortality increases, so measuring the concentration of homocysteine ​​in blood is of great clinical significance. When homocysteine ​​accumulates in cells and enters the blood circulation, most of it exists in the oxidized form and binds to proteins, while the reduced form of homocysteine ​​accounts for only 1% in the blood. To determine the content of tot...
