Abstract
The inducible cholinesterase of Pseudomonas fluorescens (Goldstein strain) was purified by fractionation on a CM-Sephadex column. The method was found to be superior to alumina C γ gel fractionation in terms of yield, specific activity of the enzyme, and reproducibility of results.

Abstract
The kinetic constants and reaction mechanism of human erythrocyte adenine phosphoribosyltransferase from individuals whose enzyme activities have high, intermediate, or low degrees of stability to heat inactivation, and in a human mutant with reduced activity of this enzyme, have been measured. The Michaelis constants for one or both substrates are different from normal in seven mutants.

Abstract
The inducible cholinesterase produced by the Goldstein strain of Pseudomonas fluorescens was purified to a state of electrophoretic homogeneity. The enzyme, which resembles an acetylcholinesterase in its substrate specificity, has a high affinity for acetylcholine and propionylcholine. The estimated values of Kmat pH 7.4 and 37 °C are 1.4 × 10−5 M for acetylcholine and 2.0 × 10−5 M for propionylcholine. The bacterial cholinesterase reacts very slowly with tetraethyl pyrophosphate (TEPP) and diisopropyl phosphorofluoridate (DFP) but comparatively rapidly with ethyl N,N-dimethylphosphoramidocyanidate (Tabun). Bimolecular rate constants range from 7.7 mol−1min−1for TEPP to 7.4 × 104 mol−1min−1for Tabun. The reactions of the cholinesterase depend upon the ionic state of groups in the enzyme whose pKavalues are in the same range as those reported for other esterases. The results suggest that the enzyme may be similar in structure to other cholinesterases, and that both histidine and serine may be involved in its activities.
