Table 3. 13C Isotope Effects on the Oxidase Activity of the DASN OxDC Varianta.

  13(V/K) (CO2)
pH (buffer) WT OxDC DASN loop variantb
4.2 [1,4-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine] 1.005 ± 0.001 1.0036 ± 0.0009
5.7 (piperazine) 1.008 ± 0.001 1.006 ± 0.001
a

Values for WT OxDC have been reported previously and are included here for ease of comparison.17

b

Values are reported for 1 mM oxalate at 25 °C. Under these conditions, the decarboxylase activity of the DASN OxDC variant is negligible and the ratio of CO2 production and O2 consumption equals 2 (Figure 4B).
