HCID 798Indole

Procedure

Measured in accordance with the method of Yamada et al. as follows. In 4.0ml of a reaction mixture containing 10 micromoles of L-tryptophan, 0.4 micromole of pyridoxalphosphate (PLP)), 200 micromoles of K2HPO4 -KH2PO4 (pH 8.0), the enzyme is incubated at 65° C. for 10 minutes. Then, 1.0 ml of a 30% aqueous solution of trichloroacetic acid (TCA) is added to stop the reaction. Indole formed in the reaction system is quantitatively determined by the method of E. McEvoy-Bowe [The ANALYST, vol. 88, pages 893-894 (1963)]. The activity is expressed in units in which 1 U is the amount in micromoles of indole formed during 1 minute.
