Effect of added divalent cations on PBCV-1 dUTPase activity

Added cation (concn [mM]) Relative activitya (%) with:
No EDTA 1 mM EDTA
None 80 0
Mg2+ (5) 100 100
Mn2+ (5) 71 70
Co2+ (5) 61 59
Zn2+ (5) 52 49
Ni2+ (5) 47 30
Ca2+ (5) 38 31
Cu2+ (5) 32 28
a

The results are expressed as the percentage of enzyme activity relative to the activity obtained with Mg2+. The results are the average of three independent experiments.
