Characterization of wild-type and R292K mutant neuraminidases

Enzyme Substratea
Ki (nM)b
Km (μM) Relative Vmax GS 4071 Zanamivir 4-Amino-Neu5Ac2en
Wild type 84 17 0.13 (3.25 × 10−6) 0.33 (8.25 × 10−6) 100 (2.50 × 10−3)
Mutant 337 1 3,600 (2.00 × 10−2) 8.0 (4.44 × 10−5) 3,000 (1.67 × 10−2)
a

Km and relative Vmax values were determined by using MUNANA as substrate and are average values from at least three separate experiments using different virus preparations. 

b

Ki values were determined as described in reference 23 and are average values from two independent experiments. Numbers shown in parentheses indicate the Ki/Km ratio as an indicator of relative inhibitory efficiency.
