SynopsisAltered activities of biogenic amine-related enzymes have been reported in some studies of patients with affective disorders and chronic schizophrenia. To evaluate whether any relationship between personality variations, including non-diagnosed psychopathology, and these enzymes might occur in non-psychiatric patients, 95 young adult volunteers were studied. Higher MMPI and Zuckerman sensation-seeking scale scores were found in male, but not female, volunteers with lower platelet and plasma amine oxidase activities. Males generally exhibited negative correlations, while females had positive correlations between the psychological test scores and amine oxidase activities. In contrast to the amine oxidase results, no associations were observed between plasma dopamine β-hydroxylase activities and the personality variables.

Electron nuclear double-resonance (‘ENDOR’) spectroscopic studies on pig plasma amine oxidase have been carried out at 15 K. Deuterium-exchange studies show the presence of two sets of exchangeable protons, probably from two water molecules; from the magnitude of their hyperfine couplings, one is assigned to be equatorially, and the other axially, co-ordinated. Only one 14N hyperfine coupling is observed, suggesting that the bonding of all amino acid (histidine) or organic cofactor ligands is similar. Upon addition of azide, a further hyperfine coupling to nitrogen is observed which is smaller than that observed for the native enzyme; the hyperfine couplings to the remaining nitrogens are slightly altered.
