Over the range 20-52 degrees C thermal inactivation of malate dehydrogenase (MDH) was studied with the aim of well grounded choice of its stabilization ways. The process was described by the pseudofirst order rate constants, kin, dependent on enzyme concentration. The rate constant of enzyme inactivation at the "infinite" dilution in general form equals 1.40 X 10(27) X exp (-43 000/RT) s-1, whereas at high enzyme concentration it is 1.26 X 10(8) X exp (-17 700/RT) s-1. The limiting step of the MDH inactivation is the enzyme dissociation into its subunits. In the concentrated enzyme solution a protein association is accompanied by its stabilization. The methods of characterization of oligomeric proteins dissociative inactivation are discussed. 相似文献

The effect of galactose on the inactivation of purified beta-galactosidase from the black bean, Kestingiella geocarpa, in 5 M urea at 50 degrees C and at pH 4.5, was determined. Lineweaver-Burk plots of initial velocity data in the presence and absence of urea and galactose were used to determine the relevant K(m) and V(max) values, with p-nitrophenyl beta-D-galactopyranoside (PNPG) as substrate, S. The inactivation data were analysed using the Tsou equation and plots. Plots of ln([P](infinity) - [P](t) ) against time in the presence of urea yielded the inactivation rate constant, A. Plots of A vs [S] at different galactose concentrations were zero order showing that A was independent of [S]. Plots of [P](infinity) vs [S] were used to determine the mode of inhibition of the enzyme by galactose, and slopes and intercepts of the 1/[P](infinity) vs. 1/[S] yielded k(+0) and k '(+0), the microscopic rate constants for the free enzyme and the enzyme-substrate complex, respectively. Plots of k(+0) and k '(+0) vs. galactose concentrations showed that galactose protected the free enzyme and not the enzyme-substrate complex against urea inactivation via a noncompetitive mechanism at low galactose concentrations and a competitive pattern of inhibition at high galactose concentrations. The implication of the different modes of inhibition in protecting the free enzyme was discussed. 相似文献

The Slater-Bonner method which is used for graphic determination of substrate constant (Ks) by linear dependence of apparent Michaelis constant (Km(app)) on the limiting rate (V(app)) of enzyme-catalysed reactions with activator participation has been critically analysed. It has been shown that although it is possible to record the mechanisms of such reactions as a scheme similar to Michaelis-Menten model which allow to find correlation Km(app) and V(app) as equation Km(app) = Ks + V(app)/k1[E]0 ([E]0 is a total enzyme concentration, k1 is a rate constant of enzyme-substrate complex formation from free enzyme and substrate) in order to calculate Ks and individual rate constants (k1, k(-1)), but this approach for investigation of all reactions with activator participation ought not to be used. The above equation is not obeyed in general, it may be true for some mechanisms only or under certain ratios of kinetic parameters of enzyme-catalysed reactions. 相似文献

The kinetics of aniline hydroxylation with: 1) rat liver microsomes involving NADPH and O2 (System I); 2) hepatic microsomes and tertiary butylhydroperoxide (System II) and 3) microsomes and cumyl hydroperoxide (System III) within 15--37 degrees C has been studied. The reactions were characterized by the values of the aniline oxidation rate constants, k2=v/[E]0, where [E]0 is the initial concentration of cytochrome P--450: k1 2=1,60.10(8) exp (--13400/RT) sec-1., k2 2=1,66.10(9) exp (--14500/RT) sec-1., k3 2=6,83.10(9) exp (--15300/RT) sec-1. The values of delta H* and delta S* were calculated and compared for these three systems. A conclusion is drawn that the act of oxygen insertion into the substrate molecule is the rate-limiting step in the reaction of aniline oxidation for the mentioned system. 相似文献

Dried Serratia marcescens (ATTC strain 14041) cells were exposed to various partial pressures of oxygen and nitrogen. The colony-forming ability of the organisms was rapidly destroyed during exposure to oxygen but was unimpaired by exposure to purified nitrogen. The degree of inactivation depended upon temperature, time, and the partial pressure of oxygen, regardless of whether pure oxygen or dry air was used. The inactivation by oxygen followed the expression -1nN/N(0) = k[O(2)](1/3)t(1/2), where N(0) and N are the number of viable organisms before and after exposure respectively, [O(2)] is oxygen concentration, t is time, and k is the rate constant. At 25 C, k was 276 +/- 36 moles(-1/3) cc(1/2) hr(-1/3) for oxygen pressures between 5.5 and 258 torr. In the temperature range between -78 and 40 C, the rate constant may be expressed as k = 10(5.95+/-04.2) exp[(-430 +/- 26) cal/RT] moles(-1/3) cc(1/3) hr(-1/2). 相似文献

Demonstration of cooperating alpha subunits in working (Na+ + K+)-ATPase by the use of the MgATP complex analogue cobalt tetrammine ATP 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The MgATP complex analogue cobalt-tetrammine-ATP [Co(NH3)4ATP] inactivates (Na+ + K+)-ATPase at 37 degrees C slowly in the absence of univalent cations. This inactivation occurs concomitantly with incorporation of radioactivity from [alpha-32P]Co(NH3)4ATP and from [gamma-32P]Co(NH3)4ATP into the alpha subunit. The kinetics of inactivation are consistent with the formation of a dissociable complex of Co(NH3)4ATP with the enzyme (E) followed by the phosphorylation of the enzyme: (Formula: see text). The dissociation constant of the enzyme-MgATP analogue complex at 37 degrees C is Kd = 500 microM, the inactivation rate constant k2 = 0.05 min-1. ATP protects the enzyme against the inactivation by Co(NH3)4ATP due to binding at a site from which it dissociates with a Kd of 360 microM. It is concluded, therefore, that Co(NH3)4ATP binds to the low-affinity ATP binding site of the E2 conformational state. K+, Na+ and Mg2+ protect the enzyme against the inactivation by Co(NH3)4ATP. Whilst Na+ or Mg2+ decrease the inactivation rate constant k2, K+ exerts its protective effect by increasing the dissociation constant of the enzyme.Co(NH3)4ATP complex. The Co(NH3)4ATP-inactivated (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, in contrast to the non-inactivated enzyme, incorporates [3H]ouabain. This indicates that the Co(NH3)4ATP-inactivated enzyme is stabilized in the E2 conformational state. Despite the inactivation of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase by Co(NH3)4ATP from the low-affinity ATP binding site, there is no change in the capacity of the high-affinity ATP binding site (Kd = 0.9 microM) nor of its capability to phosphorylate the enzyme Na+-dependently. Since (Na+ + K+)-ATPase is phosphorylated Na+-dependently from the high-affinity ATP binding site although the catalytic cycle is arrested in the E2 conformational state by specific modification of the low-affinity ATP binding site, it is concluded that both ATP binding sites coexist at the same time in the working sodium pump. This demonstration of interacting catalytic subunits in the E1 and E2 conformational states excludes the proposal that a single catalytic subunit catalyzes (Na+ + K+)-transport. 相似文献

(1) The kinetics of the phosphorylated enzymic intermediates of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase from ox brain, which are formed by incubation of the enzyme with 25 microM AT32P, 150 mM Na+ and 1 mM Mg2+, have been studied in dephosphorylation experiments at 1 degree C. The dephosphorylation of the 32P-labelled enzyme was initiated by addition of either 1 mM unlabelled ATP, 2.5 mM ADP or 1 mM unlabelled ATP + ADP in concentrations from 25 to 1000 microM. (2) In the absence of ADP the dephosphorylation curve was linear in a semilogarithmic plot almost from t = 0, whereas by addition of ADP a biphasic behaviour was obtained. The slope of the slow phase of dephosphorylation was virtually independent of the ADP concentration. (3) The results were analysed by the mathematical equation corresponding to the simplest possible model for the interconversion and breakdown of the phosphointermediates: (formula: see text) where alpha, beta, H and G are functions of all the rate constants and H and G furthermore are functions of the initial values for [E1P] and [E2P]. (4) The analysis confirmed the model and enabled the determination of all the rate constants. (5) k-1 was found to be equal to k'-1 + k"-1 . [ADP] indicating an ADP-independent 'spontaneous' dephosphorylation of E1P. The rate constant for this process was close to that for dephosphorylation of E2P, i.e., k'-1 congruent to k3. Also the value of k"-1 was determined. (6) k3 was found to be at least 10 . k-2. The implication of this for the role of the E1P to E2P transition in the Na+ + K+)-stimulated ATP hydrolysis will be discussed in detail in the following paper (Plesner, I.W., Plesner, L., N?rby, J.G. and Klodos, I. (1981) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 643, 483--494). (7) A refinement of the model, accounting for the effect of Na+ on the steady-state ratio between [E1P] and [E2P] is proposed: (formula: see text). At [Na+] = 150 mM as used here, E1P(Na) and E'1P are assumed to be in rapid equilibrium. (8) Comparison of our results with those of others underlines the general validity of the conclusions of the present paper. 相似文献

Some kinetic properties of the formation of a thioester-bound l-seryl-enzyme intermediate are described. The rate constant of formation is 3.12 x 10(2) M(-1) s(-1) and the rate constant for spontaneous breakdown is 2.47 x 10(-3) s(-1). These constants yield a value of log K = 5.10 for the overall equilibrium constant which agrees favorably with a value of 5.20 calculated from equilibrium binding data. E(1).serine formation requires a thiol group which is extremely reactive to N-ethylmaleimide; the second-order rate constant for enzyme inactivation by this reagent is 77.1 M(-1) s(-1) at pH 6.6 and 0 C. Excess l-serine does not protect the enzyme against inactivation. In addition to an adenosine triphosphate-[(32)P]-inorganic pyrophosphate exchange, the enzyme also catalyzes an l-serine-dependent adenosine triphosphate-[(3)H]adenosine monophosphate exchange in accordance with the scheme proposed for the activation of serine. 相似文献

Adenosine 5-phosphosulfate (APS) kinase from Penicillium chrysogenum is irreversibly inactivated by trinitrobenzene sulfonate in a pseudo-first order process. Under standard assay conditions kapp was 1.9 X 10(-3) s-1. Saturating MgATP or MgADP decreased Kapp to a limit of 4.1 X 10(-4) s-1. There are several explanations for the partial protection, including the presence of two essential lysyl side chains, only one of which is at the active site. Analysis of the inactivation kinetics by means of linear plots derived for partial protection yielded dissociation constants for E X MgATP (Kia) and E X MgADP (Kiq) of 2.9 mM and 1.8 mM, respectively. Low concentrations of APS alone provided no protection against trinitrobenzene sulfonate inactivation, but in the presence of 1 mM MgADP, as little as 2 microM APS provided additional protection while 100 microM APS reduced kapp to the limit of 4.1 X 10(-4) s-1. The results confirm the formation of a dead end E X MgADP X APS proposed earlier as the cause of the potent substrate inhibition by APS. Linear plots of 1/delta k versus 1/[MgADP] at different fixed [APS] and of 1/delta k versus 1/[APS] at different fixed [MgADP] were characteristic of the ordered binding of MgADP before APS (or the highly synergistic random binding of the two ligands). The true APS dissociation constant of the dead end E X MgADP X APS complex (K'ib) was determined to be 1.9 microM. From the value of K'ib and the previously reported value of KIB (apparent inhibition constant of APS as a substrate inhibitor of the catalytic reaction at saturating MgATP), the ratio of the MgADP and PAPS release rate constants (k4/k3) was calculated to be 11. Inactivation kinetics was used to study the effects of Mg2+ and high salt on ADP and APS binding. The results indicated that free ADP binds to the enzyme more tightly than does MgADP at low ionic strength. High salt decreased free ADP binding, but had little effect on MgADP binding. APS binds more tightly to E X MgADP in the absence or presence of salt than to E X ADP. 相似文献

Kinetic analysis of the mechanism of trypsinogen activation by trypsin under rapid equilibrium conditions and certain relationships between the rate constants are presented. The kinetic equations are valid from the beginning of the reaction. In addition, we suggest a procedure, based on the above equations, for the evaluation of the kinetic parameters of the reaction. This procedure is applied to a set of experimental data collected during the activation of bovine trypsinogen by trypsin at 30 degrees C (pH 8.1) in 0.01 M CaCl2. In this system, the amount of active enzyme increases exponentially, as expected from an autocatalytic process. The apparent rate constant, delta, governing this increase would vary linearly with the trypsinogen concentration, [Z]0, if no Michaelis complex was detectable. However, the increase in delta with [Z]0 is clearly non-linear and fits a hyperbola (delta = k2[Z]0/(Kz + [Z]0)) well. 相似文献

The kinetics of aniline hydroxylation was studied with: (1) rat liver microsomes involving NADPH and O2 (system 1), (2) hepatic microsomes and tert-butylhydroperoxide (system 2) and (3) microsomes and cumyl hydroperoxide (system 3) at 15--37 degrees C. The reactions were characterized by the values of the aniline oxidation rate constants, k2 = V/E0, where E0 is the initial concentration of cytochrome P-450: K 1/2 = 1.60 - 10(8) EXP (-13 400/RT) sec-1, k 2/2 = 1.66 - 10(9) exp (-14 500/RT) sec-1, k 3/2 = 6.83 - 10(9) exp (-15 300/RT) sec-1. The values of delta H0 and delta S0, were calculated and compared for the three systems. The evidence suggests that oxygen insertion into the substrate molecule is the rate-limiting step in the reaction of aniline oxidation for the mentioned systems. The nature of aniline binding to cytochrome P-450 and that of the hydroxylating agent have been discussed. 相似文献

The rate of inactivation of succinyl-CoA:3-ketoacid coenzyme A transferase by thiol reagents is increased 3 to 100 times by very low concentrations of acyl-CoA substrates. The same maximum inactivation rate is found with acetoacetyl-CoA and succinyl-CoA. The enhanced rate of inactivation is caused by the stoichiometric formation of the enzyme-CoA intermediate and an accompanying conformation change of the enzyme. The inactivation rate provides a simple assay for the amount of enzyme present as the enzyme-CoA intermediate, using only catalytic concentrations of enzyme. This technique has been utilized to measure (a) a rate constant for hydrolysis of the enzyme-CoA intermediate of 0.10 min-1 at pH 8.1; (b) a stoichiometry of two active sites per enzyme molecule; and (c) the equilibrium constants for formation of the enzyme-CoA intermediate from dilute solutions of substrates (and hence for the overall reaction) by determining the ratio of [enzyme-CoA]/[enzyme] in the presence of a series of substrate "buffers" at different ratios of [RCOO-]/[RCOSCoA]. As the total concentration of acyl-CoA and carbosylate substrates is increased, the inactivation rate is decreased. This indicates that the Michaelis complexes are protected against inactivation. 相似文献

Inactivation of flavocytochrome b2 with fluoropyruvate. Reaction at the active-site histidine 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Fluoropyruvate inactivated oxidized flavocytochrome b2 (baker's yeast L-lactate dehydrogenase) in a biphasic process yielding convex semilog plots of residual activity versus time. At each reagent concentration, rate constants k1 and k2 for the two phases could be calculated by simulation studies using one of the schemes proposed by Ray and Koshland [J. Biol. Chem. (1961) 236, 1973-1979]: E----E1 (fully active)----E2 (inactive). When plotted as a function of reagent concentration, the values of k2, but not those of k1, showed a saturation effect. Inactivation was slowed down by D-lactate, a competitive inhibitor, and completely prevented by enzyme reduction. While no enzyme chemical modification could be demonstrated for the first step, the inactivation event of the second step could be ascribed to alkylation of a histidine belonging to proteolytic fragment beta of the enzyme. The only histidine present in the fragment sequence is His-373. In the enzyme three-dimensional structure [Xia et al. (1987) Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA 84, 2629-2633] His-373 is well located, close to the cofactor, to play the role of the active-site base required by the chemical mechanism. Alternative chemical interpretations of the kinetic scheme are discussed, so is the difference between flavocytochrome b2 inactivation by fluoropyruvate and bromopyruvate. 相似文献

The reaction of myeloperoxidase compound I (MPO-I) with chloride ion is widely assumed to produce the bacterial killing agent after phagocytosis. Two values of the rate constant for this important reaction have been published previously: 4.7 x 106 M-1.s-1 measured at 25 degrees C [Marquez, L.A. and Dunford, H.B. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 30434-30440], and 2.5 x 104 M-1.s-1 at 15 degrees C [Furtmüller, P.G., Burner, U. & Obinger, C. (1998) Biochemistry 37, 17923-17930]. The present paper is the result of a collaboration of the two groups to resolve the discrepancy in the rate constants. It was found that the rate constant for the reaction of compound I, generated from myeloperoxidase (MPO) and excess hydrogen peroxide with chloride, decreased with increasing chloride concentration. The rate constant published in 1995 was measured over a lower chloride concentration range; the 1998 rate constant at a higher range. Therefore the observed conversion of compound I to native enzyme in the presence of hydrogen peroxide and chloride ion cannot be attributed solely to the single elementary reaction MPO-I + Cl- --> MPO + HOCl. The simplest mechanism for the overall reaction which fit the experimental data is the following: MPO+H2O2 ⇄k-1k1 MPO-I+H2O MPO-I+Cl- ⇄k-2k2 MPO-I-Cl- MPO-I-Cl- -->k3 MPO+HOCl where MPO-I-Cl- is a chlorinating intermediate. We can now say that the 1995 rate constant is k2 and the corresponding reaction is rate-controlling at low [Cl-]. At high [Cl-], the reaction with rate constant k3 is rate controlling. The 1998 rate constant for high [Cl-] is a composite rate constant, approximated by k2k3/k-2. Values of k1 and k-1 are known from the literature. Results of this study yielded k2 = 2.2 x 106 M-1.s-1, k-2 = 1.9 x 105 s-1 and k3 = 5.2 x 104 s-1. Essentially identical results were obtained using human myeloperoxidase and beef spleen myeloperoxidase. 相似文献

Transient kinetic data of ATP binding and cleavage by cardiac myosin subfragment 1 (S1) were obtained by fluorescence stopped flow and analyzed by using computer modeling based on a consecutive, reversible two-step mechanism: (formula: see text) where M1 and M12 denote myosin species with enhanced fluorescence and K'O = K0/(K0[ATP] + 1). The kinetic constants K0, k12, k23, and k32 and the fractional contributions of M1 and M12 to the total fluorescence are analyzed over a range of systematically varied solution parameters. The initial ATP binding equilibrium (K0), which decreases with increasing pH, is facilitated by a positively charged protein residue with a pK of 7.1. An active-site charge of +1.5 is determined from the ionic strength dependence. The rate constants k12, k23, and k32 also exhibit pK's near neutrality but increase with increasing pH. The majority of the large (-54 kJ/mol) negative free energy of ATP binding occurs upon S1 isomerization, k12, and a large increase in entropy (183 J/kmol at 15 degrees C) is associated with the cleavage step. The equilibrium constant for the cleavage step, K2, is determined as 3.5 at pH 7.0, 15 degrees C, and 200 mM ionic strength. There are no significant changes in fractional contributions to total fluorescence enhancement due to solvent-dependent conformational changes of S1 in these data. When values for the combined rate constants are calculated and compared with those determined by graphical analysis, it is observed that graphical analysis overestimates the binding rate constant (K0k12) by 25% and the hydrolysis rate constant (k23 + k32) by as much as 30%.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Inhibition kinetics of green crab (Scylla serrata) alkaline phosphatase activity by dithiothreitol or 2-mercaptoethanol 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Green crab (Scylla serrata) alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) is a metalloenzyme which catalyzes the nonspecific hydrolysis of phosphate monoesters. Some pollutants in seawater affect the enzyme activity causing loss of the biological function of the enzyme, which affects the exuviating crab-shell and threatens the survival of the animal. The present paper studies the effects of thiohydroxyal compounds on the activity of green crab alkaline phosphatase. The results show that thiohydroxyal compounds can lead to reversible inhibition. The equilibrium constants have been determined for dithiothreitol (DTT) and mercaptoethanol (ME) binding with the enzyme and/or the enzyme-substrate complexes. The results show that both DTT and ME are non-competitive inhibitors. The kinetics of enzyme inactivation by ME at low concentrations has been studied using the kinetic method of the substrate reaction. The results suggest that at pH 10.0, the action of ME on green crab ALP is first quick equilibrium binding and then slow inactivation. The microscopic rate constants were determined for inactivation and reactivation. The rate constant of the forward inactivation (k(+0)) is much larger than that of the reverse reactivation (k(-0)). Therefore, when the ME concentration is sufficiently large, the enzyme is completely inactivated. 相似文献

APS kinase from Penicillium chrysogenum. Dissociation and reassociation of subunits as the basis of the reversible heat inactivation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Adenosine-5'-phosphosulfate (APS) kinase from Penicillium chrysogenum, loses catalytic activity at temperatures greater than approximately 40 degrees C. When the heat-inactivated enzyme is cooled to 30 degrees C or lower, activity is regained in a time-dependent process. At an intermediary temperature (e.g. 36 degrees C) an equilibrium between active and inactive forms can be demonstrated. APS kinase from P. chrysogenum is a dimer (Mr = 57,000-60,000) composed of two apparently identical subunits. Three lines of evidence suggest that the reversible inactivation is a result of subunit dissociation and reassociation. (a) Inactivation is a first-order process. The half-time for inactivation at a given temperature is independent of the original enzyme concentration. Reactivation follows second-order kinetics. The half-time for reactivation is inversely proportional to the original enzyme concentration. (b) The equilibrium active/inactive ratio at 36 degrees C increases as the total initial enzyme concentration is increased. However, Keq,app at 5 mM MgATP and 36 degrees C calculated as [inactive sites]2/0.5 [active sites] is near-constant at about 1.7 X 10(-8) M over a 10-fold concentration range of enzyme. (c) At 46 degrees C, the inactive P. chrysogenum enzyme (assayed after reactivation) elutes from a calibrated gel filtration column at a position corresponding to Mr = 33,000. Substrates and products of the APS kinase reaction had no detectable effect on the rate of inactivation. However, MgATP and MgADP markedly stimulated the reactivation process (kapp = 3 X 10(5) M-1 X s-1 at 30 degrees C and 10 mM MgATP). The kapp for reactivation was a nearly linear function of MgATP up to about 20 mM suggesting that the monomer has a very low affinity for the nucleotide compared to that of the native dimer. Keq,app at 36 degrees C increases as the MgATP concentration is increased. The inactivation rate constant increased as the pH was decreased but no pK alpha could be determined. The reactivation rate constant increased as the pH was increased. An apparent pK alpha of 6.4 was estimated. 相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase [ATP:oxaloacetate carboxy-lyase (transphosphorylating), EC 4.1.1.49] is completely inactivated by the 2',3'-dialdehyde derivative of ATP (oATP) in the presence of Mn2+. The dependence of the pseudo-first-order rate constant on reagent concentration indicates the formation of a reversible complex with the enzyme (Kd = 60 +/- 17 microM) prior to covalent modification. The maximum inactivation rate constant at pH 7.5 and 30 degrees C is 0.200 +/- 0.045 min-1. ATP or ADP plus phosphoenolpyruvate effectively protect the enzyme against inactivation. oATP is a competitive inhibitor toward ADP, suggesting that oATP interacts with the enzyme at the substrate binding site. The partially inactivated enzyme shows an unaltered Km but a decreased V as compared with native phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase. Analysis of the inactivation rate at different H+ concentrations allowed estimation of a pKa of 8.1 for the reactive amino acid residue in the enzyme. Complete inactivation of the carboxykinase can be correlated with the incorporation of about one mole of [8-14C]oATP per mole of enzyme subunit. The results indicate that oATP can be used as an affinity label for yeast phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase. 相似文献

Molecular asymmetry in alkaline phosphatase of Escherichia coli 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Thermal inactivation of alkaline phosphatase of Escherichia coli has been studied at different temperatures (45 to 70 degrees C) and pHs (7.5, 9.0, and 10.0) for the commercial, buffer-dialyzed (pH 9.0) and EDTA-dialyzed (pH 9.0) enzymes. In each case, the inactivation exhibits biphasic kinetics consistent with the rate equation, (formula; see text) where A0 and A are activities at time zero and t, and k1 and k2 are first-order rate constants for the fast and slow phase, respectively. Values of k1 and k2 change independently with temperature, pH, and pretreatment (dialysis) of the enzyme. Time course of inactivation of the enzyme with excess EDTA and effect of Zn2+ ion concentration on the activity of EDTA-dialyzed enzyme have been investigated. The data suggest that the dimeric enzyme protein has two types of catalytic sites which have equal catalytic efficiency (or specific activity) but differ in several other properties. Structural implications of these results have been discussed. 相似文献
