Diffusional increase and decrease in half-maximal-activity substrate concentrations with two-substrate enzymic reactions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Diffusional effects on two-substrate enzymic reactions mainly depend on the relative affinities of the enzyme for its two substrates. With two substrates of widely different affinities, diffusional limitations increase and decrease the half-maximal-activity concentration of the high-and low-affinity substrate respectively.

Design Investigation of Microstrip Patch and Half-Mode Substrate Integrated Waveguide Cavity Hybrid Antenna Arrays
In this paper two linear arrays including a linear 1×4 and a planar 2×2 of microstrip patch and half-mode substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) cavity hybrid antenna are introduced and investigated. These are simply implemented using low cost single layer printed circuit board (PCB) process. The array element consists of a rectangular microstrip patch with appropriate dimensions in the vicinity ...
متن کاملThe Relationship between Cation-Induced Substrate Configuration and Enzymatic Activity of Phosphatidate Phosphohydrolase from Human Liver
The mechanism by which bi-and trivalent cations affect human liver phosphatidatephosphohydrolase (PAP) activity was investigated. Bivalent cations up to 1 mM increased PAP activity whereas at higher concentrations the activity of the enzyme decreased. The stimulatory concentration for trivalent cations such as Al3+ and Cr3+, however, was much lower being 2 m M and 1 m M, respectively. All catio...
متن کاملRecombinant 10-formyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase catalyses both dehydrogenase and hydrolase reactions utilizing the synthetic substrate 10-formyl-5,8-dideazafolate.
10-Formyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (EC 1.5.1.6) is a bifunctional enzyme, displaying both NADP(+)-dependent dehydrogenase activity for the formation of tetrahydrofolate and CO2, and NADP(+)-independent hydrolase activity for the formation of tetrahydrofolate and formate. A previous report [Case, Kaisaki and Steele (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 1024-1027] claimed that dehydrogenase and hydrola...
متن کاملKinetic analysis of duck c-crystallin, a lens structural protein with lactate dehydrogenase activity
Biochemical characterization and kinetic analysis of e-crystallin from the lenses of common ducks were undertaken to elucidate the enzymic mechanism of this unique crystallin with lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity. Despite the structural similarities between e-crystallin and chicken heart LDH, differences in charge and kinetic properties were revealed by isoenzyme electrophoresis and kinetic...
متن کاملA continuous-flow (AutoAnalyzer II) procedure for measuring erythrocyte transketolase activity.
In this semiautomated method, an AutoAnalyzer II is used to measure the enzymic production of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate in hemolysates, to assay erythrocyte transketolase (EC 2.2.1.1) activity. Hemolysate and indicator reactions are separated by dialysis to eliminate hemoglobin interference and increase sensitivity. Internal standards of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate in hemolysate carriers were q...
