Table 2. Kinetic Values for PFTase and Three Mutants Using FPP as the Isoprenoid Substratea.
protein | kcat (s–1) | KM (μM) | kcat/KM (μM s–1) | rel. kcat/KM |
---|---|---|---|---|
WT | 0.27 ± 0.02 | 0.5 ± 0.2 | 0.5 ± 0.2 | 1 |
W102A | 0.083 ± 0.005 | 0.26 ± 0.09 | 0.3 ± 0.1 | 0.59 |
Y154A | 0.11 ± 0.007 | 0.27 ± 0.09 | 0.4 ± 0.1 | 0.76 |
Y205A | 0.18 ± 0.01 | 0.5 ± 0.2 | 0.4 ± 0.1 | 0.67 |
All values are apparent kinetic parameters since the peptide concentration was held constant at 2 μM. Values are reported here as the averages and standard deviations from three separate experiments.
