Abstract

A C34T mutation in the AMPD1 gene is proposed to cause local or systemic augmentations in blood adenosine level and improvement of prognoses in heart diseases like congestive heart failure or heart ischemic disease. This study examines some physico-chemical properties of AMP-deaminase isolated from cardiac muscle of a 10-year-old boy heterozygote for this mutation.
