Kinetic properties of phosphoglycolate phosphatase from Pisum sativum and Phaseolus vulgaris
High activities of phosphoglycolate phosphatase were observed in Pisum sativum and Phaseolus vulgaris leaves. The low values for K m phosphoglycolate and the K a values for the activation by Mg 2+ and Cl &− are consistent with the efficient hydrolysis of phosphoglycolate in these plants. This is...

Summary: | High activities of phosphoglycolate phosphatase were observed in
Pisum sativum and
Phaseolus vulgaris leaves. The low values for
K
m
phosphoglycolate and the
K
a
values for the activation by Mg
2+ and Cl
&− are consistent with the efficient hydrolysis of phosphoglycolate in these plants. This is confirmed by the absence of detectable phosphoglycolate in photosynthetically active leaves of
Pisum sativum. |
