N-tau-Methylhistidine in human skeletal and smooth muscle proteins
1979
Holbrook, I.B. | Gross, E. | Irving, M.H.
Fifteen pieces of rectus abdominus muscle and fifteen pieces of taenia muscle were removed from patients undergoing various surgical procedures. The muscles were extracted, hydrolysed and the content of N-tau-methylhistidine was measured. The level in smooth muscle was lower than in skeletal muscle. The muscle content of N-tau-methylhistidine was at least 40 percent higher than the only other reported value; therefore, the method of calculating muscle protein breakdown based on N-tau-methylhistidine excretion requires revision.
