General Stability

General Stability Organism
2-mercaptoethanol, stabilizes Escherichia coli
alpha-ketoglutarate stabilizes Escherichia coli
alpha-ketoglutarate, L-glutamine, L-glutamate and NADP when present together partial protect against enzyme inactivation Escherichia coli
incubation with L-glutamine or L-glutamate results in marked time- and temperature-dependent loss in activity Escherichia coli
NADP causes relatively small loss in activity compared with control values Escherichia coli
