VcTrpase does not dissociate into inactive dimers or monomers at 4°C
40 - 70
-
the enzyme is stable up to 40°C, but only 40% of the activity remains at 60°C, the enzyme is completely inactivated at temperatures above 70°C
5
-
stable in presence of K+, gradual loss of activity in absence of K+
63
-
10 min, holoenzyme, about 45% loss of activity
80
-
5 min, Tna1 retains alomost complete activity, Tna2 is inactivated
90
-
5 min, Tna1 retains more than 70% of activity, Tna2 is inactivated
