Description
A pyridoxal-phosphate protein. The enzyme, purified from the bacterium Paracoccus denitrificans IFO 13301, is strictly D-specific as to the α-position of the substrate, but accepts both the threo and erythro forms at the β-position. The erythro form is a far better substrate (about 100-fold). The enzyme can also accept D-allothreonine, D-threonine, erythro-3-phenyl-D-serine and threo-3-phenyl-D-serine. Different from EC 4.1.3.14, erythro-3-hydroxy-L-aspartate aldolase. Requires a divalent cation, such as Mg2+, Mn2+ or Co2+.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
D-3-hydroxyaspartate aldolase
Reaction
(1) threo-3-hydroxy-D-aspartate = glycine + glyoxylate; (2) D-erythro-3-hydroxyaspartate = glycine + glyoxylate
