These results strongly suggest that Ser isinvolved in the catalytic activity of BHLmL2 and BHAb and are consistent ... respectively. The influence of pH on the activities of the BHenzymes was investigated in the pH range 6–11. The pH optima were determined to be in the basic range(pH 8.0–10.0) for BHLmL2 and BHAb ... 6 and Fig. 4, the Hill equation provided an excellent fit, withcoefficients of determination of 0.992 for BHLmL2 and 0.997 for BHAb. In addition, the fits of the V = f(S) curves were sigmoidal and...
