General Stability

General Stability Organism
enzyme is unstable when purified more than about 5-fold Aminobacter aminovorans
exposure of the enzyme for 30 min at 0°C to buffers of pH values in the region 4 to 9 does not result in loss of activity followed by adjustment of the pH 6.0 Aminobacter aminovorans
trimethylamine-grown Pseudomonas aminovorans enzyme is more labile at 40°C than enzyme from methylamine-grown bacteria in French press extracts Aminobacter aminovorans
