Abstract
Human erythrocytes were found to contain an enzyme capable of dephosphorylating phosphoglycolate. The rates of hydrolysis of 14 other metabolites by the enzyme preparation were less than 6% of the rate with phosphoglycolate. The pH optimum is in the range of 6 to 7 and the Km for phosphoglycolate is 0.76 mM. The molecular weight appears to be about 79,000. Such an activity has previously been reported only for plant cells.Entities:
