“…The GTP hydrolysis activities of LdSar1:WT and its mutants were determined as described previously (36). Briefly, 5 µg of immobilized protein on glutathione beads was incubated with buffer A (20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.8, 100 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl 2 , 1 mM NaH 2 PO 4 and 10 mM β-mercaptoethanol) for 20 min at 25⁰C and bound nucleotide was eluted with 1 M guanidine-HCl.…”
