Inhibition of endogenous microsomal NADP oxidase by CO enables membrane-bound glutathione-insulin transhydrogenase (EC 1.8.4.2) to be assayed conveniently by a linked assay involving NADPH and glutathione reductase (EC 1.6.4.2). The specific activity of the enzyme in rat liver microsomal preparations is of the order of 1 nmol of oxidized glutathione formed/min per mg of membrane protein. The specific activity of the enzyme is comparable in rough and smooth microsomal fractions, and the activity is not affected by treatment with EDTA and the removal of ribosomes from rough microsomal fractions. Membrane-bound glutathione-insulin transhydrogenase is not affected by concentrations of deoxycholate up to 0.5%; protein disulfide-isomerase (EC 5.3.4.1) is drastically inhibited. In rat liver microsomal fractions glutathione-insulin transhydrogenase and protein disulfide-isomerase ativities are not both catalyzed by a single enzyme species.
