摘要: Ornithine carbamoyltransferase (OCT) from spinach (Spinacea oleracea L.) was purified to homogeneity and studied for some kinetic structural properties. The enzyme showed a specific activity of 436 U mg−1, its molecular mass approximately 118 kDa as estimated by Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration chromatography, the protein ran single band 38 in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacryamide electrophoresis. catalyses an ordered bi-bi-sequential reaction which carbamoyl phosphate binds first, followed L-ornithine; L-citrulline leaves phosphate. Michaelis constant 0.19 mM L-ornithine 13.1 µM phosphate; dissociation complex 19 µM. Km decreases pH 6.0 10.4. is heat-labile, but it protected thermal inactivation substrates; more ornithine alone than two substrates acting together.
