Application

EC Number Application Comment Organism
2.4.1.5 medicine the effects of sodium ions on dextran succrase activity are specific, thus it can be useful to block its catalytic activity, and reducing the cariogenic potential of Streptococcus mutans Streptococcus mutans

Inhibitors

EC Number Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
2.4.1.5 NaCl only the hydrolytic activity of the dextransuccrase is influenced by sodium ions, whereas there is no effect on glucosyltransferase activity. 0.5 mM, 65% inhibition of hydrolytic activity, 20 mM, 90% inhibition of hydrolytic activity. The enzyme shows biphasic effects in response to Na+ ions. The enzyme activity is restored by 86% after dialysis compared to the control enzyme preparation. No effect on in presence of other monovalent cations (Rb+, Cs+, and K+). The effects of sodium ions on dextransuccrase activity are specific, thus it can be useful to block its catalytic activity, and reducing the cariogenic potential of Streptococcus mutans Streptococcus mutans
