Specificity constants and ΔΔG values for high-pI α-glucosidase catalyzed hydrolysis of monodeoxy maltose analogs

Substrate Vmax/Km ΔΔG
kJ mol−1
Methyl β-maltoside 9.51 × 10−3 ± 1.77 × 10−3
Methyl 1-deoxy-β-maltoside 1.05 × 10−2 ± 1.02 × 10−3 −0.3
Methyl 1,2-dideoxy-β-maltoside 1.17 × 10−2 ± 1.14 × 10−3 −0.3
Methyl 3-deoxy-β-maltoside 6.73 × 10−4 ± 1.09 × 10−5 7.0
2′-Deoxy maltose 2.83 × 10−4 ± 3.00 × 10−5 9.3
3′-Deoxy maltose 1.66 × 10−4 ± 2.62 × 10−5 10.7
4′-Deoxy maltose 7.53 × 10−6 ± 1.47 × 10−7 18.9
6′-Deoxy maltose 8.09 × 10−6 ± 1.45 × 10−7 18.7

Assays were performed at 37°C in 50 mm sodium acetate, pH 4.5. ΔΔG was calculated as −RTln[Vmax/Km)a/(Vmax/Km)b], where a and b designate analog and parent compound, respectively.
