Kinetic parameters of XDH

Substrate Km, μM Vmax, μmol· min−1⋅mg−1 Vmax/Km
Xanthine 4.5 2.7 0.6
Hypoxanthine 500 1.2 0.0024
Allopurinol 1000 2.0 0.0020

The approximate Km value was estimated by using a Michaelis–Menten plot and confirmed experimentally after this determination. The Vmax was estimated from a Michaelis–Menten plot.
