The enzyme activity was measured at 50°C in the presence of 4 mM Mg2+. Substrate specificity for sugars was determined using 2 mM ATP as a phosphoryl donor, and that for phosphoryl donors was determined using 5 mM glucose as a sugar substrate. Kinetic parameters were determined using seven different concentrations of the substrates and by nonlinear regression analysis using KaleidaGraph (Synergy Software).
