Abstract
Abstract 1,4-Methylhistamine was characterized as substrate for monoamine oxidase (MAO) in rat liver mitochondria. The K m and V max values were 38.8 μM and 6.33 nmoles/mg protein/60 min, respectively. The inhibition experiments with clorgyline and deprenyl, the selective inhibitors for type A and type B MAO, showed that 1,4-methylhistamine was specific for type B MAO.
