| Title: | The trehalase of the grasshopper Valanga nigricornis | Authors: | Teo, L.-H. Heng, S.-K. |
Issue Date: | 1987 | Citation: | Teo, L.-H.,Heng, S.-K. (1987). The trehalase of the grasshopper Valanga nigricornis. Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology -- Part B: Biochemistry and 87 (2) : 373-378. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | 1. 1. The optimal pH of trehalase was 6.9; the optimal temperature was 45-50°C; Km was 2.51 x 10-3M. 2. 2. The half life at 48°C was 36 min; it was most stable at pH 6.9 at temperature 35-45°C. 3. 3. Various heavy metal compounds inhibit trehalase but MnCl2 had a slight stimulating effect. 4. 4. Thoracic muscles contained the largest amount of trehalase; a delayed response to starvation in trehalase production was noted. © 1987. | Source Title: | Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology -- Part B: Biochemistry and | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/106922 | ISSN: | 03050491 |
