GENERAL STABILITY
ORGANISM
UNIPROT
LITERATURE
dialysis against glycine-NaOH buffer, pH 8.8 inactivates
-
DTT and/or EDTA do not stabilize
-
DTT stabilizes
-
freeze-thawing inactivates
heat-inactivated enzyme preparation does not restore the activity
-
S-adenosyl-(5')-3-methylthio-1-propylamine protects from inhibitors when preincubated
-
tetramerization stabilizes
-
very labile in crude extracts
