Application
Apotryptophanase is used for the quantitative determination of pyridoxal-phosphate. Apotryptophanase, from Sigma, has been used to study pregnancy-associated PLP deficiency and vitamin B-6 deficiency .
Biochem/physiol Actions
Apotryptophanase hydrolizes tryptophan and is capable of catalyzing α,β-elimination reactions with a number of substituted amino acids, including S-methyl-, S-ethyl- and S-benzyl- L-cysteine. DTNB inactivates tryptophanase .
Other Notes
One unit releases one μg of indole from L-tryptophan in 10 min at pH 8.3 at 37 °C in the presence of 0.04 mM pyridoxal-5′--phosphate.

Recent studies have revealed that antibiotics can promote the formation of reactive oxygen species which contribute to cell death. In this study, we report that five different antibiotics known to stimulate production of reactive oxygen species inhibited growth of Escherichia

Construction and improvement of industrial strains play a central role in the commercial development of microbial fermentation processes. L-tryptophan producers have usually been developed by classical random mutagenesis due to its complicated metabolic network and regulatory mechanism. However, in the
