Urinary aspartate aminotransferase (GOT)

An aminotransferase. There are two isozymes, all dimers composed of two identical polypeptide chain subunits. The amino acid residue of each subunit of s-GOT is 412, and the whole enzyme is composed of 824 amino acids with a molecular weight of 92,000. m-GOT, each subunit has 401 amino acid residues, and the entire enzyme consists of 802 amino acids with a molecular weight of 89,262. This enzyme is widely present in most tissues of humans and animals and is particularly abundant in heart, liver, kidney and skeletal muscle. It is usually extracted from animal myocardium for medical, biochemical research, and diagnosis. Basic Information Specialist classification: growth and development check classification: urine / kidney function test Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: fasting Analysis results: Below normal: normal. Normal value: Urinary aspartate aminotransferase: 0.5-1.7U Above normal: Glomerulonephritis, kidney tumor. negative: Positive: Tips: Do not exercise vigorously, maintain normal diet and rest. The middle part of the urine is taken for inspection. Women in the menstrual period, cold patients are not suitable for this examination. Normal value 0.5 to 1.7 U. Clinical significance Abnormal result Elevation: glomerulonephritis, kidney tumor. People who need to be tested People with proteinuria, hematuria, edema, and high blood pressure. High results may be diseases: hepatitis, pancreatic stone disease, glomerulonephritis, kidney tumors Before the test: Do not exercise vigorously, maintain normal diet and rest. At the time of examination: a part of the urine is discharged first to wash away the bacteria remaining in the urethra and the anterior urethra, and then the middle part of the urine is taken for examination. Inspection process The urine of the subject was collected and detected by enzymatic method. Not suitable for the crowd Not suitable for the crowd: women in the menstrual period, cold patients.
