Characterization of Bacillus anthracis arginase: effects of pH, temperature, and cell viability on metal preference

BACKGROUND: Arginase (RocF) hydrolyzes L-arginine to L-ornithine and urea. While previously characterized arginases have an alkaline pH optimum and require activation with manganese, arginase from Helicobacter pylori is optimally active with cobalt at pH 6. The arginase from Bacillus anthracis is no...
