The effect of temperature change on the kinetic behaviour of yeast phosphofructokinase.
Yeast phosphofructokinase does not exhibit any cold sensitivity. The kinetic properties of the enzyme have been investigated in the range between 10 degrees C and 30 degrees C in dependence on fructose 6-phosphate and ATP. Although a significant increase in the enzyme activity with rising temperature does not occur, the shape of the ATP velocity curves is not markedly altered. With increasing concentrations of fructose-6-phosphate the efficiency of temperature on the catalytic process increases, indicating a small temperature effect on the shape of the fructose-6-phosphate velocity curves. The results are interpreted in terms of an adequate kinetic model.
