摘要
From a supernatant fraction of the periPheral flavedo of immature calamondin (Citrofortunella mitis) fruits were extracted by sesquiterpene cyclase catalyzing the conversion of farnesyl diphosphate to beta-selinene. This enzyme was partially purified by ion exchange chromatography and its properties were investigated. The molecular weight was estimated to be in the range of 67 000 by gel filtration. The K(m) for the substrate farnesyl diphosphate was found to be 45-mu-M. This protein exhibited an isoelectric point of 6.0. It required the presence of divalent metal cations and Mg2+ was preferred to Mn2+.
