Abstract: | A method based on Isothermal Titration Calorimety (ITC) is described for the thermodynamic assay of jack bean urease. Inhibitory activity of cyanide ion was examined against jack bean urease (JBU), at 27 and 37 oC in 30 mM Tris buffer of pH = 7. The binding parameters of the CN? + JBU complexation have been calculated. It was found that in the low and high concentrations of the cyanide ions, the JBU structure was destabilized, resulting in a decrease in its biological activity. |
