A study of the kinetic properties of the α-lytic protease of Sorangium sp. indicated that substrate-binding by the enzyme was not pH dependent. In agreement with this indication of a pH-insensitive conformation, the optical rotation of the enzyme between pH 5 and 10.5 is not pH dependent. The optical rotatory dispersion spectrum above 220 mμ shows a main Cotton effect with a trough at 230 mμ and small but well-marked Cotton effects between 260 and 300 mμ. The reduced, mean residue rotation at the trough of the main Cotton effect was estimated to be −1650 ± 80° cm2/dmole; the Moffitt–Yang parameter b0 for rotations above 325 mμ is approximately zero. These values suggest that the enzyme has virtually no α-helices.
