Purification and characterization of Helicobacter mustelae urease.
Helicobacter mustelae is a urease-rich bacterium associated with gastritis in ferrets. The ureases of H. mustelae and Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium implicated in human gastritis, share many characteristics. Helicobacter sp. ureases appear to be unique among bacterial enzymes in exhibiting submillimolar Km values and in being composed of two subunits.
