Table 5. Kinetic parameters of XylA measured after reconstituting apo-XylA with different divalent metal ions.

Metal Kinetic parameters
kcat (s−1) KM (mM) kcat/KM (s−1 · M−1)
Mg2+ 2.8 ± 0.2 5.5 ± 0.4 500
Mn2+ 7.8 ± 0.1 3.9 ± 0.2 2000
Ca2+ 0.6 ± 0.06 420 ± 90 1.3

kcat and KM values represent average and mean deviation of independent duplicate experiments, calculated for each metal.
