| Abstract: | The two homodimeric isozymes of phosphoglycerate mutase have been purified from murine kidney and muscle. No differences were observed in the Michaelis-Menten constant for the substrate 2-phospho-D-glycerate, in molecular weight, temperature and pH optima, when the purified isozymes were compared. The isozymes differ in their inhibition constants for phosphoenolpyruvate, in their Michaelis constants for 3-phospho-D-glycerate and 2,3-bisphospho-D-glycerate, their thermal and pH lability and in their sensitivity towards mercury ions. |
