Abstract excerpt
A comparison of the values of kcat/Km for reduction of dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) by NADH catalyzed by wild type and K120A/R269A variant glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from human liver (hlGPDH) shows that the transition state for enzyme-catalyzed hydride transfer is stabilized by 12.0 kcal/mol by interactions with the cationic K120 and R269 side chains. The transition state for the K120A/R269A...
