Table 1.

Kinetic parameters for the wild-type, M145A, and F128A BmEH toward the substrate rac-PGE or -NGE

Enzyme rac-PGE rac-NGE
kcat, s−1 KM, mM kcat/KM, s−1⋅mM−1 kcat, s−1 KM, mM kcat/KM, s−1⋅mM−1
Wild type >400* >50 N.A. 0.60 ± 0.06 1.3 ± 0.3 0.45 ± 0.12
M145A >9.5* >50 N.A. 19.0 ± 2.7 1.5 ± 0.5 12 ± 5
F128A 4.4 ± 0.2 12 ± 1 0.37 ± 0.05 34.1 ± 0 0.4 0.75 ± 0.24 45 ± 15

The PGE and NGE concentrations were varied in the ranges of 3–50 and 0.3–10 mM, respectively. N.A., not available.

*

Calculated based on the highest rate detected.

No saturation was observed. The KM values were beyond the concentration range of substrate. The concentration of PGE for activity determination was limited by its low solubility.
