1. Salicylate, in concentrations of 0.25mm and above, enhances the basal activity of tyrosine–2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase in homogenates of rat liver incubated in the absence of added pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (endogenous activity). The effect is decreased by increasing the concentration of the cofactor. 2. The intraperitoneal administration of sodium salicylate enhances the activity of rat liver tyrosine aminotransferase; the major effect during the first hour being on the enzyme in the absence of added pyridoxal phosphate. Actinomycin D prevents the induction of the enzyme by cortisol and tryptophan. Induction by pyridoxine or salicylate is 50% inhibited by actinomycin D. The effects of the injections of various combinations of cortisol, pyridoxine and salicylate were also studied in the absence or presence of actinomycin D. 3. It is suggested that salicylate induces rat liver tyrosine aminotransferase by displacing its protein-bound cofactor and that a cofactor-type induction of the hepatic enzyme occurs in pyridoxine-treated rats.

1. Acute ethanol administration causes a biphasic change in rat liver tyrosine aminotransferase activity. 2. The initial decrease is significant with a 200 mg/kg dose of ethanol, is prevented by adrenoceptor-blocking agnets and by reserpine, but not by inhibitors of ethanol metabolism, and exhibits many of the characteristics of the inhibition caused by noradrenaline. 3. The subsequent enhancement of the enzyme activity by ethanol is not associated with stabilization of the enzyme, but is sensitive to actinomycin D and cycloheximide. 4. It is suggested that the initial decrease in aminotransferase activity is caused by the release of catecholamines, whereas the subsequent enhancement may be related to the release of glucocorticoids.

Inactivation of tyrosine aminotransferase induced in vivo by triamcinolone was studied in a homogenate incubated at neutral pH values. The integrity and the presence of subcellular particles together with a compartment of acidic pH are necessary for inactivation of tyrosine aminotransferase. It is suggested that tyrosine aminotransferase is inactivated inside lysosomes. The system responsible for inactivation of tyrosine aminotransferase was partially purified and identified with lysosomal cathepsins B and B1. Inactivation of tyrosine aminotransferase in liver slices is controlled by the amino acid concentration and strongly stimulated by cysteine. 3,3′,5-Tri-iodo-l-thyronine reversibly and strongly decreases the rate of inactivation of tyrosine aminotransferase. The effect is not due to an increased rate of tyrosine aminotransferase synthesis.
