GENERAL STABILITY
ORGANISM
UNIPROT
LITERATURE
2-oxoglutarate does not protect against heat inactivation
-
2-oxoglutarate stabilizes against thermal inactivation
35% decrease in activity after 5 days under the influence of 50 mM D-fructose, 46% decrease in activity under the influence of 500 mM D-fructose.The enzyme undergoes glycation when incubated with D-fructose leading to a shift down of pI. Uric acid has a protective effect against late glycation
-
addition of glycerol, DTT and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate to buffers, required for stabilization during purification
-
aspartate, 10 mM, or pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, 0.2 mM protects against heat inactivation
-
AspATSs, when incubated at 37°C in the presence of trypsin, is cleaved after Lys32 and Lys33 and looses its activity. At 37°C, substrates are not able to protect the enzyme from proteolysis, while at 75°C the presence of substrates lowers the inactivation rate about 4fold
complete loss of activity after freezing and thawing
-
cysteinic acid protects the cytosolic isoform against thermal denaturation, not aspartate or 2-oxoglutarate
-
enzyme is stabilized by the intramitochondrial chaperone homologues GroEL and GroES
-
inactivation at 1.3 M NaCl and KCl
-
labile enzyme is stabilized by pyridoxyl 5'-phosphate and L-aspartate
-
presence of substrates renders AspATSs less sensitive to thermolysin, possibly by inducing a conformational transition
