title: [Effect of the chemical surface structure of functionalized polystyrene on the kinetic properties of immobilized yeast pyruvate decarboxylase].
abstract: The influence of the loading density of different functional groups and the length of suitable spacer structures on the kinetic properties of yeast pyruvate decarboxylase are investigated on identical polystyrene matrices. At constant concentrations of the fixed protein both the specific activity and the storage stability of the immobilized enzymes increase with increasing concentrations of the protein binding (C = O)-groups. pH-Optimum and K'M-value prove to be functions of the NH3+-content of the supports. Using four spacer resins with an equal content of spacer groups it could be shown that the optimum time of coupling as well as the maximum catalytical activity, storage stability and thermostability depend on the length of the spacer structures. On the other hand, the mobility of an ESR-marker fixed via the same spacers to the resin is not affected by the different spacer structures.
