Purification and properties of pyruvate kinase from Streptococcus mutans.
Pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40) from Streptococcus mutans strain JC2 was purified, giving a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight of the native enzyme was 180,000 to 190,000, and the enzyme was considered to consist of four identical subunits. This enzyme was completely dependent on glucose 6-phosphate for activity, and the saturation curve...
متن کاملSpecificity of pyruvate kinase.
Short Communications Specificity of pyruvate kinase Previous reports have indicated that pyruvate kinase is a relatively non-specific enzyme capable of catalyzing the transfer of phosphate from PEP to a wide variety of nucleoside diphosphate acceptors l& In the present studies, attempts were made to utilize this enzyme for the assay of UDP.The rate of phosphate transfer to nucleoside diphosphat...
متن کاملProperties of Pyruvate Kinase from Soybean Nodule
The properties ofpyruvate kinase from soybean ( Glycinemax L.) nodule cytosol were examind to determine what influence the N2 fixation process might have on this supposed key control enzyme. A crude enzyme preparation was prepared by chromatography of cytosol extract on a diethylaminoethyl-cellulose column. ATP and citrate at 5 mm concentrations inhibited pyruvate kinase 27 and 34%, respectivel...
متن کاملPrevalence of Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency among the Newborns (Shiraz-Iran)
Background: The frequency of pyruvate kinase (PK) deficiency, an autosomal recessive defect, is approximately 3 per 10,000 individuals in Shiraz and surrounding areas, and is increased due to high consanguinity marriage frequency. The purpose of this study is to obtain data on the frequency and spectrum of gene mutation of PK in newborns, from Shiraz and surrounding areas. Materials and Methods...
متن کاملPyruvate kinase of Streptococcus lactis.
The kinetic properties of pyruvate kinase (ATP:pyruvate-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.40) from Streptococcus lactis have been investigated. Positive homotropic kinetics were observed with phosphoenolpyruvate and adenosine 5'-diphosphate, resulting in a sigmoid relationship between reaction velocity and substrate concentrations. This relationship was abolished with an excess of the heterotropic e...
