Purification (Commentary)

Purification (Comment) Organism
enzyme purified from upper and lower petal lobes of 5- to 10-day-old snapdragon flowers using DE53 anion exchange chromatography, hydrophobic interaction chromatography using Phenyl-Sepharose 6FF, and Mono-Q chromatography Antirrhinum majus

Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + benzoate = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + methyl benzoate ordered bi–bi mechanism, derived from kinetic analysis, S-adenosyl-L-methionine appears to be the first substrate to bind to the enzyme and methyl benzoate would be the first to be released and S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine the last Antirrhinum majus

Storage Stability

Storage Stability Organism
the purified proteins, both from petal tissue and from Escherichia coli, are highly stable for several months when stored at -80°C. When stored in a buffer containing 50 mM Bis–Tris–HCl, pH 6.9, 10% glycerol, and 10 mM beta-mercaptoethanol at 4°C, BAMT protein is stable for 1 week Antirrhinum majus
