Optical demonstration of transferase and thiolase activities. Volume, ml; d — cm; pH, ; temp, 25°. Upper curve: Transferase (17 fig of protein) added at zero time to a mix- ture of succinyl CoA {r~^ /liM) and acetoace- tate (50 fiM); succinate (40 /nM) added at the arrow. Lower curve: Transferase (17 //g of protein) added at zero time to a mixture of succinyl CoA {'-^ fiM) and acetoacetate (50 /nM); CoA-SH ( /uM) and thiolase ( fig of protein) added at the arrow. Other details as in Fig. 5. reaction as followed at 305 m/x are shown in Fig. 6. The upper curve shows the increase in absorption at 305 m/x on adding transferase to a mixture of succinyl CoA and aceto- acetate and the reversal of the reaction by succinate after equilibrium was established. The equilibrium constant of the transferase reaction (/v^^ = (Succinate) (acetoacetyl-S- CoA)/Succinyl-S-CoA) (acetoacetate)) is about lO^^ at pH The acetoacetyl CoA formed by the reaction between succinyl CoA and aceto- acetate, in the presence of transferase, was isolated as a crude alcohol-insoluble barium salt and further purified by paper chromatography^^. In ethanol-acetate its Rp is at 24°, while that of acetoacetate is L
