A histochemical procedure was established for the microphotometric determination of hexokinase (HK) in sections of the rat hippocampus, which served as an exemplary brain region. For this quantitative procedure, slides were coated with glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) as an auxiliary enzyme and sections were mounted onto this enzyme film. The sections were then incubated with the following adapted incubation medium: 5 mM D-glucose, 1.5 mM NADP, 7.5 mM ATP, 4 mM nitroblue tetrazolium chloride, 10 mM NaN3, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.25 mM phenazine methosulfate, 1 U/ml G6PDH, 22% polyvinyl alcohol in 0.05 M Hepes buffer; the final pH was 7.5. A linear response of the reaction was observed in the initial 10 min of reaction (kinetic and end-point measurements). The relationship between HK activity and section thickness was linear up to 5 microns. The need for such thin sections is discussed in relation to the limited penetration of the auxiliary enzyme into the section. It is concluded that the quantitative demonstration of HK in brain sections could be a valuable tool for studying the local metabolic entrance of glucose in the glycolytic pathway.  相似文献

Thep-nitrophenyl--d-maltoside hydrolyzing-glucosidase from the mesophileBacillus subtilis 25S and the obligate thermophileBacillus caldolyticus C2 was purified, characterized, and compared in order to determine the molecular mechanisms that may confer thermostability of starch-degrading enzymes. Both enzymes showed endo-oligo-1,4-glucosidase activity owing to their identical hydrolysis of linear malto-oligosaccharides to maltose and glucose as determined by thin-layer chromatography. Neither enzyme showed activity againstp-nitrophenyl--d-glucopyranoside, maltose, isomaltose, isomaltotriose, or panose. The enzymes may tentatively be classified as a panose-producing pullulanase owing to their hydrolysis of pullulan. The 25S and C2 enzymes were composed of two identical subunits of Mr 55,000 and 60,000 respectively. Both the 25S and C2 enzymes have a pI of 4.85, pH optimum of 7.5 and 7.0, and Km values for the chromogenic substratep-nitrophenyl--d-maltoside of 2.96 mM and 1.31 mM respectively. The 25S enzyme exhibited optimal activity between 35 and 37°C, and complete inactivation after 10 min at 45°C, while the C2 enzyme showed optimal activity at 60°C and retained 100% of initial activity at 60°C for 2 h. The C2 enzyme required a minimum of 0.02% 2-mercaptoethanol or 0.01 mM EDTA for thermostability. A comparison of the amino acid compositions showed an increase in the number of proline, alanine, and leucine residues for the thermostable C2 enzyme. These alterations in hydrophobicity may influence enzyme thermostability; this may be a factor in the design of engineered proteins for industrial use.Florida Agricultural Experiment Station Journal Series No. 9985  相似文献

Ap-nitrophenyl--d-maltoside-hydrolyzing -glucosidase was purified and characterized from aBacillus subtilis high-temperature growth transformant (H-17), previously generated by transformation ofBacillus subtilis 25S withBacillus caldolyticus C2 DNA. The enzyme showed endo-oligo-1,4-glucosidase activity owing to its hydrolysis of linear malto-oligosaccharides to maltose and glucose, and pullulan hydrolase activity owing to its hydrolysis of pullulan to glucose, maltose, and (iso)panose. The enzyme was inactive againstp-nitrophenyl--d-glucopyranoside, maltose, isomaltose, isomaltotriose, and panose, but slightly hydrolyzed starch. The native structure of the enzyme is a dimer composed of two identical subunits of Mr 55,000. The enzyme had a pI of 4.8, pH optimum of 7.5, was 80% inhibited by 5 mM Tris-HCl, and had a Km value of 1.46 mM for the chromogenic substratep-nitrophenyl--d-maltoside. The enzyme showed optimal activity between 65° and 68°C, and retained 100% of initial activity after incubation at 65°C for 1 h. A minimum concentration of 0.02% 2-mercaptoethanol or 0.005 mM EDTA was required for thermostability. These physiochemical characteristics are similar to those for the previously described corresponding enzyme fromB. subtilis 25S, except that the same enzyme from the transformed strain was thermolabile. Amino acid analysis showed higher levels of alanine, glycine, and proline residues in the H-17 enzyme, compared with 25S. This may account for the enhanced thermostability, owing to increased internal hydrophobicity.Florida Agricultural Experiment Station Journal Series No. R-01123.  相似文献

The substrate dependence and product inhibition of three different fructokinases and three different hexokinases from growing potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers was investigated. The tubers contained three specific fructokinases (FK1, FK2, FK3) which had a high affinity for fructose K m=64, 90 and 100 (M) and effectively no activity with glucose or other hexose sugars. The affinity for ATP (K m=26, 25 and 240 M) was at least tenfold higher than for other nucleoside triphosphates. All three fructokinases showed product inhibition by high fructose (K i=5.7, 6.0 and 21 mM) and were also inhibited by ADP competitively to ATP. Sensitivity to ADP was increased in the presence of high fructose, or fructose-6-phosphate. In certain conditions, the K i (ADP) was about threefold below the K m (ATP). All three fructokinase were also inhibited by fructose-6-phosphate acting non-competitively to fructose (K i=1.3 mM for FK2). FK1 and FK2 showed very similar kinetic properties whereas FK3, which is only present at low activities in the tuber but high activities in the leaf, had a generally lower affinity for ATP, and lower sensitivity to inhibition by ADP and fructose. The tuber also contained three hexokinases (HK1, HK2, HK3) which had a high affinity for glucose (K m=41, 130 and 35 M) and mannose but a poor affinity for fructose (K m=11, 22 and 9 mM). All three hexokinases had a tenfold higher affinity for ATP (K m=90, 280 and 560 M) than for other nucleoside triphosphates. HK1 and HK2 were both inhibited by ADP (K i=40 and 108 M) acting competitively to ATP. HK1, but not HK2, was inhibited by glucose-6-phosphate, which acted non-competitively to glucose (K i=4.1 mM). HK1 and HK2 differed, in that HK1 had a narrower pH optimum, a higher affinity for its substrate, and showed inhibition by glucose-6-phosphate. The relevance of these properties for the regulation of hexose metabolism in vivo is discussed.Abbreviations FK fructokinase - Fru6P fructose-6-phosphate - Glc6P glucose-6-phosphate - HK hexokinase - NTP nucleoside triphosphate - Pi inorganic phosphate - UDPGlc uridine-5-diphosphoglucose This work was supported by the Deutsche Froschungsgemeinschaft (SFB 137).

l-Serine dehydratase fromLactobacillus fermentum was purified 100-fold. It was stabilized by the presence of 1 mM l-cysteine in 50 mM phosphate buffer. Mr=150,000 was determined by gel filtration. The enzyme consists of four apparently identical subunits (Mr=40,000) that were observed after treatment with sodium dodecyl sulfate. The apparent Km forl-serine was 65 mM. Fe++ was required for the enzymatic activity, and the apparent Km value for this reaction was 0.55 mM. Maximum enzymatic activity was observed at 45°C and pH 8.0 in 50 mM phosphate buffer. At pH values different from the optimum, a positive cooperativity between substrate molecules was observed. The activation energy of the reaction was 11,400 and 22,800 cal × mol–1 for temperature values more than and less than 35°C respectively. The purified enzyme showed a maximum absorption between 400 and 420 nm, indicating the presence of pyridoxal-5-phosphate (PLP) as a prosthetic group. The PLP concentration was 0.027 µmoles per milligram of protein. The data suggest that there is 1 mol of PLP for each protein subunit.  相似文献

Summary cAMP independent glycogen synthase kinase and phosvitin kinase activity was purified from the 180 000 × g supernatant of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes by ammonium sulphate precipitation and phosphocellulose chromatography. The cAMP independent glycogen synthase kinase eluted from the phosphocellulose at 0.54 m NaCl (peak A) separate from the major phosvitin kinase eluting at 0.68 m NaCl (peak B). The kinase activity of both peaks tended to form aggregates, but in the presence of 0.6 m NaCl, the peak B enzyme had Mr 250 000, 7.2S and the peak A enzyme Mr 38 000, 3.8S. The ratio between synthase kinase and phosvitin kinase activity in peak A was 1:3.2 and in peak B 1:31.4. In addition the kinase activities differed with respect to sensitivity to temperature, ionic strength and CaCl2. It is suggested that the peak A enzyme represents the cAMP independent glycogen synthase kinase of leukocytes, whereas the peak B enzyme is a phosvitin kinase, which is insignificantly contaminated with some synthase kinase (peak A) and contains a separate, second synthase kinase.Synthase kinase had K m app 4.2 m for muscle glycogen synthease I and K m app 45 m for ATP. GTP was a poor substrate. The activity was not influenced by cyclic nucleotides, Ca2+, or glucose-6-P. Synthase I from muscle and leukocytes was phosphorylated to a ratio of independence of less than 0.05.Abbreviations cAMP adenosine cyclic 3:5-monophosphate - DTT dithiothreitol - EGTA ethylene glycol-bis-(-amino-ethylether)-N,N-tetraacetic acid - PMSF phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride - PKI protein kinase inhibitor - RI ratio of independence for glycogen synthase - SDS sodium dodecyl sulphate  相似文献

This paper describes the physicochemical characteristics in partially purified enzyme on subjects with the Pd A, Pd AB, and Pd B variants of 6-phosphogluconic dehydrogenase (6PGD). For these studies, whole blood was purified about 225-fold using ion exchange chromatography on DEAE cellulose column and fractionation with ammonium sulfate. 6PGD emerges as a single peak between 0.01 m and 0.1 m phosphate buffer on the column and is precipitated in the 55–80% fraction of ammonium sulfate. This purified enzyme can be stored frozen for several months without appreciable loss of activity and contains no detectable activity of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase and glutathione reductase. The three variants of partially purified 6PGD varied from each other in two respects. The transitional temperature is 47.8 C for Pd A, 45.4 C for Pd AB, and 41.1 C for Pd B. The K m for 6PGA is 30 m for Pd A, 21 m for Pd AB, and 15 mfor Pd B. These observations add further strength to the concept that the polymorphism in 6PGD represents alterations in either the configuration or structure of the protein molecule itself.Supported by grants from the Chicago Community Trust and the U.S. Public Health Service (Tl-AM-5186).  相似文献

A metabolic pathway, known as the mannitol cycle in fungi, has been identified as a new entity in the eulittoral mangrove red algaCaloglossa leprieurii (Montagne) J. Agardh. Three specific enzymes, mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase (Mt1PDH; EC 1.1.1.17), mannitol-1-phosphatase (MtlPase; EC 3.1.3.22), mannitol dehydrogenase (MtDH; EC 1.1.1.67) and one nonspecific hexokinase (HK; EC 2.7.1.1) were determined and biochemically characterized in cell-free extracts. Mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase showed activity maxima at pH 7.0 [fructose-6-phosphate (F6P) reduction] and pH 8.5 [oxidation of mannitol-1-phosphate (Mt1P)], and a very high specificity for both carbohydrate substrates. TheK m values were 1.4 mM for F6P, 0.09 mM for MOP, 0.020 mM for NADH and 0.023 mM for NAD+. For the dephosphorylation of MOP, MtlPase exhibited a pH optimum at 7.2, aK m value of 1.2 mM and a high requirement of Mg2+ for activation. Mannitol dehydrogenase had activity maxima at pH 7.0 (fructose reduction) and pH 9.8 (mannitol oxidation), and was less substrate-specific than Mt1PDH and MtlPase, i.e. it also catalyzed reactions in the oxidative direction with arabitol (64.9%), sorbitol (31%) and xylitol (24.8%). This enzyme showedK m values of 39 mM for fructose, 7.9 mM for mannitol, 0.14 mM for NADH and 0.075 mM for NAD+. For the non-specific HK, only theK m values for fructose (0.19 mM) and glucose (7.5 mM) were determined. The activities of the anabolic enzymes Mt1PDH and MtlPase were always at least two orders of magnitude higher than those of the degradative enzymes, indicating a net carbon flow towards a high intracellular mannitol pool. The function of mannitol metabolism inC. leprieurii as a biochemical adaptation to the environmental extremes in the mangrove habitat is discussed.Abbreviations F6P fructose-6-phosphate - HK hexokinase - Mt1P mannitol-1-phosphate - Mt1PDH mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase - Mt1Pase mannitol-1-phosphatase - MtDH mannitol dehydrogenase  相似文献

Summary Excretion of exocellular dd-carboxypeptidases was tested using 128 strains of streptomycetes. Exocellular enzyme activity was shown in 13% of the trains investigated. Streptomyces strains showed low activity of excretion of dd-carboxypeptidases: 2.7–4.8 M of released C-terminal d-alanine (d-Ala) residue/1 culture supernatant per minute. Saccharopolyspora erythraea mutants produced considerably higher levels of exocellular enzymes, the dynamics of excretion depending upon the medium used. The highest activity of exocellular dd-carboxypeptidase production was 44 M d-Ala/1 culture supernatant per minute. The affinity of exocellular dd-carboxypeptidase of S. erythraea 64-575 for -lactam antibiotics was assessed by a statistical computer programme. The enzyme showed the lowest affinity for sodium cefotaxime, ID50(M) = 7.5 × 10–6, and the highest for potassium cephalosporin C, ID50(M) = 5.0 × 10–9, ID50(M) representing the molar concentration of -lactan antibiotics which decreased by 50% the release of d-Ala.

Partially (6-fold) purified plasma membrane ATPase from an ethanol-sensitive yeast, Kloeckera apiculata, had an optimum pH of 6.0, an optimum temperature of 35°C, a K m of 3.6 mm ATP and a V max of 11 mol Pi/min.mg protein. SDS-PAGE of the semi-purified plasma membrane showed a major band of 106 kDa. No in vivo activation of the ATPase by glucose was observed. Although 4% (v/v) ethanol decreased the growth rate by 50% it did not affect the ATPase. Concentrations of ethanol 2% (v/v) did, however, inhibit the enzyme in vitro. The characteristics of the enzyme did not change during growth in the presence of ethanol.  相似文献

Summary The substrate specificity and the intraperoxisomal localization of -hydroxyacid oxidase in rat liver has been investigated cytochemically by the cerium technique and biochemically with a luminometric assay. Rat liver is fixed by perfusion with a low concentration (0.25%) of glutaraldehyde and vibratome sections are incubated for 60 min at 37°C in a medium containing 3 mM CeCl3, 100 mM NaN3 and 5 mM of an -hydroxyacid in 0.1M of one of the following buffers: Pipes, Mops, Na-cacodylate,Tris-maleate, all adjusted to pH 7.8. Ten different -hydroxyacids with a chain length between 2 and 8 carbon atoms were tested. The best results were obtained with glycolic, argininic andl--isocaproic acids. These cytochemical findings were confirmed also biochemically using purified peroxisomal fractions isolated by gradient centrifugation in metrizamide. The pattern of the intraperoxisomal localization of the enzyme was influenced markedly by the type of buffer used for the cytochemical incubation. Whereas in theTris-maleate medium both the cores and the matrix stained with the same intensity, with all other buffers the reaction in cores was more prominent. The staining of cores was abolished by pretreating sections inTris-maleate (pH 7.8) or alkaline pyrophosphate buffers. These observations establish the substrate specificity of -hydroxyacid oxidase in rat liver and demonstrate the delicate association of this enzyme with the crystalline cores and the matrix of peroxisomes in rat liver.Abbreviations -HAOX l-hydroxyacid oxidase - Argininic acid l--hydroxy--guanidinovaleric acid - Pipes piperazine-N,N-bis(2ethane sulfonic acid) - Mops 3(N-morpholino) propane sulfonic acid - Tris tris-(hydroxymethyl)-aminomethane - Luminol 5-amino-2,3 dihydrophthalazine-1,4-dione - GA glutaraldehyde  相似文献

Cell extracts of Fibrobacter succinogenes subsp. succinogenes S85 phosphorylated glucose with a GTP-dependent glucokinase. The enzyme showed little activity with ATP (12% of that with GTP). Of other phosphate donors tested, only dGTP and ITP gave high glucokinase activities. Dialyzed extracts required Mg+2 and K+ for maximal activity. In potassium phosphate buffer, glucokinase showed maximum activity at pH 7.5 with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase as the coupling enzyme. In this assay, glucokinase was active with glucose (100%), 2-deoxy-d-glucose (40%), and mannose (20%). Partially purified glucokinase had a molecular weight of 82,000 and a pl of 4.82. Double-reciprocal plots of substrate concentration versus velocity were linear and the enzyme had apparent Km values of 55 M for glucose and 72 M for GTP. Dialyzed cell extracts of Fibrobacter intestinalis C1A also contained a GTP-dependent glucokinase that showed little activity with ATP. Potassium also stimulated the activity of this enzyme. These results suggest that this unusual glucokinase may be characteristic of the genus Fibrobacter.Abbreviations CHES cyclohexylaminoethanesulfonic acid - GK glucokinase - PEP phosphoenolpyruvate Published with the approval of the Director of the North Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station as journal article no. 2186  相似文献

We purified an extracellular thermostable -galactosidase of Saccharopolyspora rectivirgula strain V2-2, a thermophilic actinomycete, to homogeneity and characterized it to be a monomeric enzyme with a relative molecular mass of 145 000 and s°20,w of 7.1 s. In addition to the hydrolytic activity of 1-O-substituted -d-galactopyranosides such as lactose [a Michaelis constant K m=0.75 mm and molecular activity (k cat)= 63.1 s–1 at pH 7.2 and 55° C] and p-nitrophenyl -d-galactopyranoside (K m=0.04 mm k cat= 55.8 s–1), the enzyme had a high transgalactosylation activity. The enzyme reacted with 1.75 m lactose at 70°C and pH 7.0 for 22 h to yield oligosaccharides in a maximum yield (other than lactose) of 41% (w/w). A general structure for the major transgalactosylic products could be expressed as (Gal)c-Glc, where n is 1, 2, 3, and 4 with a glucose at a reducing terminal. These oligosaccharides could selectively promote the growth of the genus Bifidobacterium found in human intestines. S. rectivirgula -galactosidase was stable at pH 7.2 up to 60°C (for 4 h in the presence of 10 m MnCl2) or 70°C (for 22 h in the presence of 1.75 m lactose and 10 m MnCl2). Thus the enzyme is applicable to an immobilized enzyme system at high temperatures (60°C <) for efficient production of the oligosaccharides from lactose. Correspondence to: T. Nakayama  相似文献

An NADP-specific glutamate dehydrogenase [L-glutamate: NADP+ oxidoreductase (deaminating), EC 1.4.1.4] from alkaliphilic Bacillus sp. KSM-635 was purified 5840-fold to homogeneity by a several-step procedure involving Red-Toyopearl affinity chromatography. The native protein, with an isoelectric point of pH 4.87, had a molecular mass of approximately 315 kDa consisting of six identical summits each with a molecular mass of 52 kDa. The pH optima for the aminating and deaminating reactions were 7.5 and 8.5, respectively. The optimum temperature was around 60°C for both. The purified enzyme had a specific activity of 416units/mg protein for the aminating reaction, being over 20-fold greater than that for deaminating reaction, at the respective pH optima and at 30°C. The enzyme was specific for NADPH (Km 44 μM), 2-oxoglutarate (Km 3.13 mM), NADP+ (Km 29 μM), and L-glutamate (Km 6.06 mM). The Km for NH4Cl was 5.96 mM. The enzyme could be stored without appreciable loss of enzyme activity at 5°C for half a year in phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) containing 2 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, although the enzyme activity was abolished within 20 h by freezing at ?20°C.  相似文献

Alcaligenes xylosoxydans subsp. xylosoxydans A-6 (Alcaligenes A-6) produced N-acyl-D-aspartate amidohydrolase (D-AAase) in the presence of N-acetyl-D-aspartate as an inducer. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity. The enzyme had a molecular mass of 56 kDa and was shown by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) to be a monomer. The isoelectric point was 4.8. The enzyme had maximal activity at pH 7.5 to 8.0 and 50°C, and was stable at pH 8.0 and up to 45°C. N-Formyl (Km=12.5 mM), N-acetyl (Km=2.52 mM), N-propionyl (Km=0.194 mM), N-butyryl (Km=0.033 mM), and N-glycyl (Km =1.11 mM) derivatives of D-aspartate were hydrolyzed, but N-carbobenzoyl-D-aspartate, N-acetyl-L-aspartate, and N-acetyl-D-glutamate were not substrates. The enzyme was inhibited by both divalent cations (Hg2+, Ni2+, Cu2+) and thiol reagents (N-ethylmaleimide, iodoacetic acid, dithiothreitol, and p-chloromercuribenzoic acid). The N-terminal amino acid sequence and amino acid composition were analyzed.  相似文献

The activities and kinetics of the enzymes G6PDH (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) and 6PGDH (6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase) from the mesophilic cyanobacterium Synechococcus 6307 and the thermophilic cyanobacterium Synechococcus 6716 are studied in relation to temperature. In Synechococcus 6307 the apparent K m's are for G6PDH: 80M (substrate) and 20M (NADP+); for 6PGDH: 90M (substrate) and 25M (NADP+). In Synechococcus 6716 the apparent K m's are for G6PDH: 550M (substrate) and 30M (NADP+); for 6PGDH: 40M (substrate) and 10M (NADP+). None of the K m's is influenced by the growth temperature and only the K m's of G6PDH for G6P are influenced by the assay temperature in both organisms. The idea that, in general, thermophilic enzymes possess a lower affinity for their substrates and co-enzymes than mesophilic enzymes is challenged.Although ATP, ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate, NADPH and pH can all influence the activities of G6PDH and 6PGDH to a certain extent (without any difference between the mesophilic and the thermophilic strain), they cannot be responsible for the total deactivation of the enzyme activities observed in the light, thus blocking the pentose phosphate pathway.Abbreviations G6PDH glucose-6-phosphate, dehydrogenase - 6PGDH 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase - G6P glucose-6-phosphate - 6PG 6-phosphogluconate - RUDP ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate - Tricine N-Tris (hydroxymethyl)-methylglycine  相似文献

Summary A sugar oxidizing enzyme which produces H2O2 during glucose starvation in the white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium has been purified from mycelial extracts and somewhat characterized. Enzyme purity was confirmed by analytical isoelectric focusing and by dodecylsulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, both techniques revealing a homogeneous protein. The enzyme is active over a broad pH range with maximum activity at pH 7.5. Of several sugars tested, glucose was the preferred substrate although -d-gluconolactone and d-xylose were also oxidized at significant rates (at 60% and 37%, respectively, of the rate observed with glucose). K m-values for glucose and xylose are 1.03 and 20 mM respectively and the glucose oxidation product was idenitified as d-arabino-2-hexosulose. The possible importance of glucose-2-oxidase in lignin degradation is discussed.  相似文献

Summary The initial reaction kinetics of succinate dehydrogenase in situ were investigated in sections of mouse unfixed liver using an ARGUS-100 image analyser system. The sections were incubated on substrate-containing agarose gel films. Images of a section, illuminated with monochromatic light (584 nm), were captured with the image analyser in real time at intervals of 10 s during the incubation. The absorbances of selected hepatocytes in the successive images were determined as a function of time. In every cell, the absorbance increased non-linearly after the first minute of incubation. The initial velocity of the dehydrogenase was calculated from the linear activities during the first 20 s of incubation. Hanes plots of the initial velocities and succinate concentration yielded the following mean kinetic constants. For periportal hepatocytes, the apparentK m=1.2±0.8 mM andV max=29±2 mol hydrogen equivalents formed/cm3 hepatocyte cytoplasm per min. For pericentral hepatocytes,K m=1.4±1.0 mM andV max=21±2 mol hydrogen equivalents/cm3 per min. TheK m values are very similar to those determined previously from biochemical assays. These results, and the observed dependence of the initial velocity on the enzyme concentration, suggest that the technique reported here is valid for the histochemical assay of succinate dehydrogenase.  相似文献

Agaricus bisporus glutamine synthetase, a key enzyme in nitrogen metabolism, was purified to apparent homogeneity. The native enzyme appeared to be a GS-II type enzyme. It has a molecular weight of 325 kDa and consists of eight 46-kDa subunits. Its pI was found at 4.9. Optimal activity was found at 30°C. The enzyme had low thermostability. Stability declined rapidly at temperatures above 20°C. The enzyme exhibits a K m for glutamate, ammonium, and ATP of 22mm, 0.16mm and 1.25mm respectively in the biosynthetic reaction, with optimal activity at pH 7. The enzyme is slightly inhibited by 10mm concentrations of l-alanine, l-histidine, l-tryptophan, anthranilic acid, and 5-AMP and was strongly inhibited by methionine sulfoximine and phosphinothricine. For the transferase reaction K i-values were 890 m and 240 m for methionine sulfoximine and phosphinothricine respectively. For the biosynthetic reaction K i was 17 m for both methionine sulfoximine and phosphinothricine.  相似文献

Its K m value for starch was 0.27 mg ml-1 and its M r was approx. 75,900 Da. The activity of the enzyme was enhanced by Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+ or K+ and inhibited by EDTA, KCN, citric acid and l-cysteine.  相似文献
