A simplified method for the measurement of gamma-butyrobetaine hydroxylase activity.

A method for the assay of gamma-butyrobetaine hydroxylase activity is described. The procedure is based on the measurement of 3H2O formed from [2,3-3H]gamma-butyrobetaine. The formation of 3H2O was essentially linear with time of incubation and enzyme concentration. Despite a significant isotope eff...
