Studies on potato tuber phosphorylase-catalyzed reaction in the absence of an exogenous acceptor. I. Characterization and properties of the enzyme
Phosphorylase II from potato tuber has been subjected to several purification procedures in order to: (a) separate the unprimed activity from the primed one coexisting in the enzymatic preparation, and (b) eliminate endogenous glucan and/or glycoproteins. Large-scale analytical nondenaturing gel ele...
