Figure 6

Comparison of thermal stabilities and catalytic efficiencies of wild-type and A441 So BADH mutants. The percentage of catalytic efficiency for the oxidation of BAL (green down triangles) or APAL (red up triangles) was calculated from the kcat/Km values given in Table 1 and Table 2, respectively, taking as 100% the values of the A441I mutant, which was assumed to represent the ancestral AMADH enzyme. Thermal stability data (apparent Tm values) are those given in Figure 4. SoBADH Enzymes: A, wild-type; C, A441C; S, A441S; T, A441T; V, A441V; F, A441F; I, A441I.
