Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase of Toxoplasma gondii - kinetic characterization and intracellular localization

The pyrimidine biosynthesis patway in the protozoan pathogen Toxoplosma gondii is essenial for parasite growth during infection. To investigate the properties of Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (TgDHOD. TgDHOD exhibited a specific activity of 83.8 U/mg, a kcat of 89.2 sec-1 ± 1.5. a Km = 60.3 ±0.002 æM...
