Part:BBa_K314012
CapD_CP
A circularly permuted [http://www.parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K314011 CapD] with a Foldit-designed linker.
Usage and Biology
To test BBa _K314012, it was inserted into a pET29b+ vector using Kunkel's Mutagenesis. CapD_CP was then produced and purified as described in the [http://2010.igem.org/Team:Washington/Protocols/50mLPurificationCapD UW 2010 iGEM Team's Small Scale Protein Purification Protocol]. The purified protein was then tested for activity. For a detailed description of the assay, please see the [http://2010.igem.org/Team:Washington/Protocols/EnzymeAssayCapD 2010 UW iGEM wiki]. A protein gel was also run to determine physical qualities of the protein. The resulting data is shown below.
The substrate vs. reaction rate curve above plots the PDG cleaved per enzyme per hour (y-axis) as a function of substrate concentration (x-axis). As observed in the curve above, high substrate concentrations suffered from substrate inhibition under the conditions our enzyme was assayed. Kinetic constants, kcat and Km, taken from our plotted curves are shown in the table above.
The protein gel above shows the single band seen CapD_CP. This makes CapD_CP extremely easy to quantify when correcting for enzyme concentration. Sequence and Features
