[Effect of pH on the kinetics of the reaction catalyzed by beta-D-hexosaminidase from Halocynthia roretzi].
The analysis of the pH-dependence of Michaelis constant and maximal velocity for the reaction catalyzed by beta-D-hexosaminidase from Halocynthia roretzi revealed two essential ionazable groups of the enzyme. One of them controls substrate binding and has a pKa of 5.5 in free enzyme. The other group (pKa=5.6) is necessary for the occurrence of the catalytic step and appears not to change its pKa on substrate binding.
