A catalytic mechanism for the enzyme benzylamine oxidase from pig plasma.

Initial-velocity and product-inhibition studies on the enzyme benzylamine oxidase from pig plasma indicate that the order of substrate addition and product release is benzylamine on, ammonia off, oxygen on, hydrogen peroxide off, benzaldehyde off. Ammonia, but not benzaldehyde, is released under strictly anaerobic conditions which provides independent evidence for this order. Benzyl alcohol is a substrate for the enzyme. A chemical mechanism consistent with all the data is proposed.

Relevance today and tomorrow in medical education. A forum with a purpose.

Students of today question the relevance of much of their formal education. In medical schools the concern is particularly with the relevance of the educational experience to the professional commitment in modern society. To engender discussion of the subject, California Medicine in its January issue printed eight essays by authors known to have keen interest in the subject. Readers in California and elsewhere are invited to take part in a continuation of the forum in succeeding issues. The following are contributions selected from those received to date. Others will be published in the months ahead. At an appropriate time the material will be collated and, if feasible, the distillate will be prepared in the form of a statement. If you have thoughts on the subject, just address them to the editors of California Medicine, 693 Sutter Street, San Francisco, California, 94102. Keep your essays short, please.
