expressed in Escherichia coli strain JM109 Homo sapiens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
E256Q In contrast with R308A, the monomeric E256Q variant of the human enzyme is totally inactivated by dialysis in the presence of EDTA, leading to the suggestion that the quaternary structure could play a role in the affinity of metal binding to arginase Homo sapiens
R308A site-directed mutagenesis, single mutant R308A changed to a trimeric and kinetically cooperative form, with or without truncation Homo sapiens

monomer replacement of Arg-308 with alanine, with or without truncation, yielded monomeric species Homo sapiens
More functional significance of a C-terminal S-shaped motif (residues 304-322) is explored by examining the kinetic properties of the R308A mutant and truncated species terminating in either Arg-308 or Ala-308 Homo sapiens

all mutants are kinetically indistinguishable from the wild-type enzyme at the optimum pH of 9.5. At the more physiological, pH 7.5, hyperbolic kinetics is observed for all the mutants, in contrast with the cooperative behavior exhibited by the wild-type species Homo sapiens
