apoenzyme and enzyme in complex with thiamine diphosphate and Mg2+, hanging drop vapor diffusion method, using 10% (w/v) PEG 6K, 5 % (v/v) 2-m,ethyl-2,4-pentanediol and 0.1 M MES pH 6.5-7.0 or 0.1 M HEPES pH 7.0-8.0 |

additional information |
after 3 h incubation with 50 mM oxidized dithiothreitol, the activity of the enzyme bound to thiamine diphosphate and Mg2+ is almost unaffected, retaining more than 90% of the control (reduced) enzyme activity |

oxidized dithiothreitol |
in the absence of Mg2+, the enzyme is strongly inhibited by oxidation, retaining 20-30 % of its control activity when exposed to 50 mM oxidized dithiothreitol. The apoenzyme is 80% inactivated following incubation in the presence of identical amount of oxidized dithiothreitol |

Mg2+ |
the enzyme attains its full activation at Mg2+ concentration of equal or more than 1 mM. 15 mM used in assay conditions. Mg2+ is fundamental to allow gradual conformational arrangements suited for optimal catalysis. Moreover, Mg2+ is involved in the control of redox sensitivity of the enzyme |
