The purification procedure for isolating sn-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.8) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae was improved by the introduction of an ion-exchange step. Enzyme yields were doubled and the specific activity was increased as compared to the original procedure. A new value of 42,000 was obtained for the molecular weight by several denaturing methods. By native gel chromatography the molecular weight appears to be 31,000 as reported earlier. Michaelis constants were found to be 0.37 mM with dihydroxyacetone phosphate as the variable substrate and 0.018 mM for NADH as the variable substrate.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008970 Molecular Weight The sum of the weight of all the atoms in a molecule. Molecular Weights,Weight, Molecular,Weights, Molecular
D011232 Chemical Precipitation The formation of a solid in a solution as a result of a chemical reaction or the aggregation of soluble substances into complexes large enough to fall out of solution. Precipitation, Chemical
D002845 Chromatography Techniques used to separate mixtures of substances based on differences in the relative affinities of the substances for mobile and stationary phases. A mobile phase (fluid or gas) passes through a column containing a stationary phase of porous solid or liquid coated on a solid support. Usage is both analytical for small amounts and preparative for bulk amounts. Chromatographies
