Selected Michaelis constants from the literature have been compiled along with those determined in this study for the purified PANAT enzyme.

a STNAT, NAT from Salmonella typhimurium.

b STNAT truncation mutant, missing 11 amino acids from the C-terminus.

c STNAT truncation mutant, missing the entire C-terminal domain (85 amino acids).

d Abbreviations: 5-AS, 5-aminosalicylic acid; N-OH-Glu-P-1, 2-hydroxyamino-6-methyldipyrido- [1,2-a:3',2'-d]-imidazole; INH, isoniazid; pABA, p-aminobenzoic acid; pABA-Glu, p-aminobenzoyl-L-glutamate.
