Abstract

Using differential dye-ligand chromatography and affinity elution with a substrate analog, 6-phosphogluconate dehydratase (EC 4.2.1.12) has been isolated from extracts of Zymomonas mobilis in a one-step procedure with 50% recovery. The specific activity of freshly isolated enzyme was 245 units mg −1. The enzyme contains iron, and it is rapidly inactivated in oxidizing conditions. It is inhibited by glycerophosphates, most strongly by the d-α-isomer which structurally corresponds to half of the substrate molecule.
