After isolation and purification of four steps, specific activity of UGPase from Apocynaceae cell is 204 9 U/mg. Compared with crude cell culture, specific activity is 97 times, and recovery yield is 21%. UGPase can be used in the synthesis of UDPG, and it has higher stability. The best available pH of UGPase is about 7 2, the best available temperature about 37℃. Mg2+ is necessary for UGPase to use. The high concentration of UTP and Glc 6 P can inhibit the activity of UGPase.
Key words: UGPase; purification; characterization; specific activity
