Description

Abstract 1. 1. The purified enzyme (M r = ca 140,000 Da) was a glycoprotein with zinc, and one subunit band (M r = 60,000 Da) was found in SDS-PAGE. 2. 2. The enzyme was stable in the acid pH range, active at pH 6.0 and irreversibly denatured by urea and guanidine. 3. 3. The K m and k cal values for adenosine were 30 μM and 170/sec, respectively. V max / K m varied, but V max did not, with pH changes between 5.5 and 7.0. The apparent activation energies for V max / K m and V max were 0 and 12 kcal/mol in the temperature range below 37°C, respectively. 4. 4. Inosine was competitive inhibitor ( K i = 510 μ M). Inhibition by p -chloromercuribenzoate was time-dependent and the two binding sites were suggested.
