Abstract excerpt
Deuterium isotope effects at C2 of aspartate and heavy atom isotope effects at C2, C3, and the amino group of aspartate were determined for the reaction of the lysine-258 to alanine mutant of Escherichia coli rescued with exogenous ammonia. We were able to calculate an (15)N intrinsic isotope effect of 1.034. The intrinsic (13)C isotope effect at C3 is 1.0060, and the (13)C isotope effect at C2 is 1.0016. These...
