[Properties of Fusarium graminearum galactose oxidase].
The kinetics and action mechanism of the galactose oxidase from Fusarium graminearum were studied. pH-optimum of the enzyme activity and stability was 7.0, the activity and stability of the galactose oxidase being decreased at any other values of pH. The enzyme is destabilized at acidic pH that is connected with protonization of its ionogenic group with pK 4.7. The temperature optimum of the galactose oxidase is 35 degrees C. When studying the enzyme thermoinactivation, it was found that at temperatures below 30 degrees C the energy of activation of denaturation was about 40 kcal/mole and at temperatures ranging from 30 to 70 degrees C - 13 kcal/mole. On the basis of the data obtained it was concluded that a low-temperature form of the galactose oxidase, possessing a higher energy of activation of denaturation, is more active than a high-temperature form. The value of Km for the enzyme in respect to galactose was 0.19 M, and the value of Vmax = 360 mumole/min per g of the preparation.
