Abstract

The temperature dependence of the kinetic parameters of the aspartase-catalyzed reaction has been examined in the direction of deamination. The pK1values at 37$^{\circ}C$, 25$^{\circ}C$, 16$^{\circ}C$ and 7$^{\circ}C$ were 6.2 $\pm$ 0.1, 6.3 $\pm$ 0.1, $6.7{\pm}0.3$ and 6.9 $\pm$ 0.3, respectively. On the other hand, the pK2 values at 37$^{\circ}C$,25$^{\circ}C$, 16$^{\circ}C$ and 7$^{\circ}C$ were 8.1 $\pm0.2$, 8.3 $\pm$ 0.2, 8.2 $\pm$ 0.3 and 8.0 $\pm$ 0.2,respectively. The enthalpy of ionization, DHion, calculated from the slope of pK1, are 6.0 $\pm$ 0.3 kcal/mol. These results validate the prediction that aspartase requires a histidine residue for a general base, and a cysteine (or having a carboxyl functional group) for a general acid.
