ENZYME 3D STRUCTURE
10% v/v, 2.6fold activation
-
dramatic increase in the phosphorylation level of Ser9 of TPKI/GSK3beta immediately and 10 min after ether administration, followed by rapid virtual reversion to baseline by 20 min, no significant changes in the protein level or Tyr216 phosphorylation level of the enzyme

slight activation at 1-3% v/v
-
stimulates
-
hydrolysis activity is enhanced in the presence of non-acceptor type organic solvents such as hexane, cyclohexane, diethylether, and acetone
-
cell-bound PVA activity shows an eightfold increase upon treatment with diethylether at 0.010 ml/mg dry biomass for 45 min upon permeabilization
-
strongly activates
