Temperature dependence of the catalytic constant (kcat) of the reaction catalyzed by E. coli IPMDH displayed as an Arrhenius plot. The observed curvature of the plot is not unexpected, given the complexity of the catalytic mechanism in which individual rate constant may have different temperature dependences. Error bars represent standard errors obtained as described in Materials and Methods. The solid line is a quadratic function fitted to the data.
