Enzyme Activity Measurement Methods

The spectrophotometric assay is a widely employed method for quantifying enzyme activity. For oxidoreductases acting on the CH-OH group of EC 1.1.98, this method relies on monitoring changes in absorbance at specific wavelengths corresponding to the reaction components.

Experimental Procedure

• Preparation of Reaction Mixtures. Create reaction mixtures containing the enzyme, substrate (CH-OH group-containing compound), and known acceptors. Control reactions without the enzyme help establish baseline values.
• Incubation. Allow the reaction mixtures to incubate under controlled conditions to facilitate enzyme-substrate interactions and subsequent redox reactions.
• Spectrophotometric Analysis. Use a spectrophotometer to measure absorbance at defined wavelengths over time. This allows tracking of the enzymatic reaction progress.
• Data Analysis. Calculate enzyme activity based on the rate of change in absorbance. Comparison with control reactions provides a quantitative measure of the enzyme's catalytic efficiency.
