Effect of tetracycline derivatives and some cations on the activity of anhydrotetracycline oxygenase

Anhydrotetracycline oxygenase was partially purified on a Sephadex G-25 column and DEAE-cellulose. The purified enzyme was inhibited by tetracycline derivatives added to the reaction mixture. Certain concentrations of calcium and magnesium ions stimulated the enzymic activity; further increase of th...

Summary:Anhydrotetracycline oxygenase was partially purified on a Sephadex G-25 column and DEAE-cellulose. The purified enzyme was inhibited by tetracycline derivatives added to the reaction mixture. Certain concentrations of calcium and magnesium ions stimulated the enzymic activity; further increase of the concentration resulted in a sharp decrease of the enzymic activity. The enzyme activity was also stimulated by Cu super(2+), Ni super(2+), Co super(2+), Fe super(3+) and Mn super(2+) present in suitable concentrations in the reaction mixture.
