Abstract

An empirical stability index is proposed for single-step and two-step series-type deactivations. The stability index makes more quantitative the effect of different variables or modification on enzyme stability. The stability index increases linearly with reciprocal temperature for soluble alcohol dehydrogenase, α-amylase, human plasma butyrylcholinesterase, and human plasma butyrylcholinesterase in deuterium oxide. Other examples of enzyme modifications and their effect on the stability index are also given.
