TABLE 4.
Substrate specificity of the muconate cycloisomerase from A. “calcoaceticus” ADP1a
Substrate | Km (μM) | kcat (min−1) | kcat/Km (min−1 μM−1) |
---|---|---|---|
cis,cis-Muconate | 130 ± 10 | 3,700 ± 200 | 29 |
2-Chloro-cis,cis-muconate | 290 ± 90 | 17 ± 4 | 0.06 |
3-Chloro-cis,cis-muconate | (<10)b | ||
2,4-Dichloro-cis,cis-muconate | (<10)b | ||
3-Fluoro-cis,cis-muconate | 100 ± 10 | 2,600 ± 200 | 24 |
2-Methyl-cis,cis-muconate | 490 ± 120 | 4,700 ± 1,000 | 9.7 |
3-Methyl-cis,cis-muconate | 99 ± 7 | 1,800 ± 100 | 18 |
The Km and kcat values were determined as described in Materials and Methods. Standard deviations were calculated with the Enzfitter program. The measurements were determined with an enzyme preparation described previously (57).
The activity at a substrate concentration of 0.1 mM was below the detection limit for this measurement. Consequently, kcat, Km, and kcat/Km values could not be determined.
