Abstract: The rate of transamination of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) catalyzed by hog brain γ-aminobutyrate ami-notransferase was substantially reduced when the hydrogen at the γ-carbon position was replaced by deuterium. The deuterium isotope effect of this reaction has been substantiated by fluorometric, radiometric, and mass spectrometric procedures and assessed kinetically. The ratios of Vmax of the nonlabeled substrate/Vmax of the deuterated substrate obtained under different conditions ranged from 6 to 7. This indicates that the cleavage of the hydrogen from the γ-carbon is the rate-determining step in GABA transamination. Similar isotope effects have also been shown to occur in the peripheral system in vivo.
