Fig. 5From: A circuitous route for in vitro multi-enzyme cascade production of cytidine triphosphate to overcome the thermodynamic bottleneckTwo-stage synthesis of CTP using 20 mM cytidine as substrate. The reaction was initiated at 50 °C in 50 mM PB buffer (pH 5.0) containing 2 mM ATP, 5 mM polyP6, 20 mM MgCl2, and pure enzyme to generate UMP. After 2.0 h of the first-stage reaction, the pH and temperature of the solution were adjusted, and the remaining enzyme and substrate were added to produce CTP. All measurements were carried out in triplicatesBack to article page
