Woodward's reagent K (WRK) completely inactivated Escherichia coli uridine phosphorylase by reversible binding in the active site (Ki = 0.07 mM) with subsequent modification of a carboxyl (k2 = 1.2 min-1). Neither substrate alone protected uridine phosphorylase from inactivation. The

Treatment of homogenous human prostatic acid phosphatase (orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase (acid optimum), EC 3.1.3.2) with low concentrations of Woodward's reagent K (N-ethyl-5-phenylisoxazolium-3'-sulfonate) leads to a rapid loss of enzymic activity. The rate of inactivation of the enzyme is reduced in the

This work describes the reaction mechanism for chemical modification of tyrosinase by Woodward's Reagent K and its covalent attachment to a glassy carbon electrode. The spectrophotometric studies revealed that the modification does not cause a significant structural change to tyrosinase.

The organ common-type (CT) isoenzyme of acylphosphatase is inactivated by Woodward's reagent K (WRK) (N-ethyl-5-phenylisoxazolium-3'-sulphonate) at pH6.0. The inactivation reaction follows apparent pseudo first-order kinetics. The dependence of the reciprocal of the pseudo first-order kinetic constant (kobs) on the reciprocal

In this work we show that ryanodine binding to junctional sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membranes or purified ryanodine receptor (RyR) is inhibited in a time- and concentration-dependent fashion by prior treatment with the carboxyl reagent dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD). Exposure of the membrane-bound
