Measurement of Michaelis Constants for ATP and Mg2+ in Bioluminescence Reaction of Luciferase by a Home-Made Luminometer
Effects of ATP and Mg2+ concentrations on bioluminescence reaction of luciferase (Photinus pyralis) were investigated by home-made luminometer. The Michaelis constants of the enzyme for ATP and Mg2+ obtained from the Lineweaver-Burk graph, were 61.9 mM ±3.3 mM and 251.6mM ± 39.0mM respectively. Opti...
