Hình 7: Ảnh hưởng của ion sodium trên hoạt tính của MalQ Hoạt tính của enzym MalQ không bị ưc chế bởi nồng độ ion sodium cao. Khi nồng độ sodium chloride được tăng lên từ 200 mM đến 500 mM trong dung dịch đệm 50 mM sodium acetate, hoạt tính của enzym này chỉ thay đổi 11% (Hình 6 và 7). 4 KẾT LUẬN Vớ[r]
