Kinetic analysis of the β-fructofuranosidase from X. dendrorhous
Substrate | Mean ± SEa
|
||
---|---|---|---|
kcat (min−1) | Km (mM) | kcat/Km (min−1 mM−1) | |
Sucrose | 341 ± 14 | 4.0 ± 0.5 | 85.3 ± 6.8 |
1-Kestose | 90.8 ± 7.3 | 4.5 ± 0.7 | 20.2 ± 2.3 |
Reaction rate measurements were performed in triplicate. Values of kcat were calculated from the Vmax considering a protein molecular mass of 64.63 kDa. The kcat/Km standard errors were obtained by fitting the normalized Michaelis-Menten equation as: v = (kcat/Km)[S]/(1 + [S]/Km).
