Activating Compound

EC Number Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
1.14.13.148 O2 when the oxygen in the enzyme assay mixture is replaced with 100% nitrogen, there is no formation of N,N,N-trimethylamine N-oxide, showing that the enzyme is oxygen-dependent Calanus finmarchicus

General Stability

1.14.13.148 addition of FAD and dithiothreitol together with NADPH improves the stability of the enzyme Calanus finmarchicus

Inhibitors

EC Number Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
1.14.13.148 Cu2+ 0.2 mM Cu2+ inhibits the enzyme strongly without any preincubation Calanus finmarchicus
1.14.13.148 additional information 10 mM EDTA, 1 mM potassium cyanide and 1 mM sodium azide do not inhibit the enzyme. Bubbling the enzyme solution with CO for 2 min at 0°C or including CO (CO:O2 ratio 1:1) during the tests has no effect on enzyme activity Calanus finmarchicus
1.14.13.148 N-ethylmaleimide preincubation of the enzyme for 15 min at 14°C, pH 7.7, in the presence of 1.0 mM N-ethylmaleimide inhibits the enzymatic activity approximately by 25% Calanus finmarchicus
1.14.13.148 p-chloromercuribenzoate preincubation of the enzyme for 15 min at 14°C, pH 7.7, in the presence of 0.2 mM p-chloromercuribenzoate inhibits the enzymic activity approximately by 90% Calanus finmarchicus
