Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
subcloned into expression vector pET-28a, containing an N-terminal polyhistidine 6-His-tag, and expressed in Escherichia coli Antirrhinum majus

General Stability

General Stability Organism
the enzyme is active in both Tris- and phosphate–citrate-based buffers, although its activity in phosphate-citrate buffer is about 20% lower than in Tris-buffer Antirrhinum majus

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
