Table 1. Kinetic constants for excision of 8-OH-Gua and FapyGua by Drosophila Ogg1 protein from DNA γ-irradiated under N2O.
Lesion | Vmax (nM min–1)a | KM (nM)a | kcat × 103 (min–1)a | kcat/KM × 105 (min–1 nM–1)a |
---|---|---|---|---|
8-OH-Gua | 15.0 ± 0.3 | 267 ± 16b | 56.2 ± 1.1 | 21.0 ± 0.4b |
FapyGua | 12.7 ± 0.2 | 422 ± 22 | 47.5 ± 0.7 | 11.2 ± 0.2 |
aValues represent the mean ± standard deviation (n = 6). kcat = Vmax/[enzyme]: ([enzyme] = 267 nM). The concentration ranges of the FapyGua and 8-OH-Gua were 0.82 – 3.8 µM, and 0.41 – 2.3 µM, respectively.
bStatistically different from the value in line 2 (P < 0.05).
