Chelating Agents and
Temperature Effects on
Alkaline Phosphatase Activity
Steven Fan, Stefanie Lopez, Carrie Pusec, Jun Shi
Purpose

The purpose of the experiment is to use
activity assay to determine the effects of
chelating agents (EDTA and DTPA) and
the effects of temperature on Alkaline
phosphatase.
Alkaline Phosphatase and Metal ions
in Active Site
Zn2+
Mg2+
Metal ion roles in AP mechanism

Zn2+ ions most significant for
conformation stability and
catalytic function

roles in coordination of
nucleophilic attack and
facilitating departure of
leaving groups

Mg2+ unessential (Dieckmann)
but contributes to greater
stabilization and activity

generates hydroxyde for
serine deprotonation (Strec.
et al)
EDTA

six coordination
bonds with a metal
ion

general chelator
DTPA

eight coordination bonds
with metal ion

zinc specific chelator

formation constant
(equilibrium constant)
100 fold greater than
EDTA

relatively insoluble in
water, <0.5 g/ 100mL,
low pH ~ 2.5
Material and Methods
Performed experimental trials to determine the
[EDTA] and [DTPA] to use to make comparisons
with the temperature
 For each activity assay, absorbance was measured at
410nm with a spectrometer with 30 second intervals
with an extinction coefficient 0.0187 uM-1cm-1
 Five activity assays were performed

General Conclusions
Generally, EDTA and DTPA at 25°C and
50°C showed an exponential decay
representing the enzyme activity with
respect to time.
 EDTA at the higher temperature increased
the enzyme activity and decreased the half
life by a factor of 4.4.
 DTPA is more temperature dependent than
EDTA because after heating the system, the
time it took for the exponential curve, the
half life of DTPA dropped from multiple
hours to about one hour


The DTPA chelator has a bigger effect on the
inactivation of Alkaline Phosphatase
- Based on the facts….
DTPA binds 100 fold more strongly to the metal ions
than EDTA.
DTPA is an octadentate and EDTA is a hexadentate
Zinc metal is more essential for catalysis over
magnesium (Diekmann 2004).
The [DTPA] used was 50x less than the [EDTA].
The half life was DTPA at elevated temperature was
4.02 and the EDTA was 2.55, which is fairly close for
such a great difference in concentration.
Problems
The pH of DTPA
- pH influenced the solubility
- pH adjustment from 2.3 to around
neutral pH
 The concentration of EDTA was not
equal to DTPA to make a direct
comparison
