... K m values is exclu- sively displayed by the tetramer forms, and low- efficiency kinetics with high K m values is displayed by the dimer forms. These observations strengthen the previous hypothesis that ... lgÆmL )1 indicate that dissociation of the tetramer to the dimer is a slowly progressing process. This is supported by the kinetic behaviour of the recombinant enzyme as shown in Fig. 5D, where the enzyme ... kDa (see Table 1). Therefore, it can be concluded that the nature of the base is insignificant for the tetra- merization effect. The next goal was to determine the role played by the sugar and phosphate...
