Abstract
In the course of investigations in these laboratories on the effect of steroid hormones on various enzymatic systems, it was noted that desoxycorticosterone exerted a greater inhibitory effect than other steroids, and that the n-amino acid oxidase system was particularly strongly affected. This paper deals with experiments elucidating in part the characteristics of the n-amino acid oxidasc-desoxycorticosterone inhibition, the effect of other steroids on this enzyme system, and the extent of desoxycorticosterone inhibition on other enzymatic reactions.
