An investigation of the impact of immobilisation on the activity of dihydrodipicolinate synthase

The homotetrameric enzyme dihydrodipicolinate synthase (DHDPS, E.C. 4.2.1.52) from Escherichia coli was used as a model for probing oligomeric structure in enzymes. Dimeric mutants of this enzyme have been found in previous work to be largely inactive, due to the trapping of a covalent adduct. Pa...
