Application

Citrate Lyase from Klebsiella pneumoniae has been used in the digestion of low molecular weight human milk fraction (>5 kDa referred to as 5kF).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Citrate lyase is found in several microorganisms and catalyzes the first step of citrate degradation, forming acetate and oxaloacetate. The enzyme contains 3 polypeptide subunits, α-subunit (a transferase), β-subunit (acyl lyase) and γ-subunit (acyl-carrier protein).

Unit Definition

One unit will convert 1.0 μmole of citrate to oxalacetate per min at pH 7.6 at 25 °C.

Physical form

Lyophilized powder containing bovine serum albumin, sucrose, and MgSO4
