Temperature sensitivities of extracellular enzyme Vmax and Km across thermal environments

Abstract: The magnitude and direction of carbon cycle feedbacks under climate warming remain uncertain due to insufficient knowledge about the temperature sensitivities of soil microbial processes. Enzymatic rates could increase at higher temperatures, but this response could change over time if soil microbes adapt to warming. We used the Arrhenius relationship, biochemical transition state theory, and thermal physiology theory to predict the responses of extracellular enzyme V and K to temperature. Based on these conce… Show more

“…). Overall, despite the result for phenol oxidase, the Q 10 of V max for the remaining six enzymes was not affected by warming (Figs and ), consistent with a recent global study showing an insensitivity of Q 10 of V max to temperature for the majority of enzymes (Allison et al ). These results indicate that the dominant effect of enzymatic responses to warming on soil C result from changes in V max , rather than the Q 10 of V max , whether reduced (by thermal compensation) or increased as shown here (Fig.…”

“…Temperature adaptation of enzyme function across natural temperature gradients has been associated with differences in the temperature sensitivity ( Q 10 response) of activity ( V max ), and with decreased Q 10 of V max at higher temperature ranges (Brzostek & Finzi ; Nottingham et al ), although there is also evidence for the insensitivity of Q 10 of V max for soil enzymes across natural temperature gradients (Allison et al ). This pattern of long‐term temperature response of enzyme activity was supported for only one out of seven measured enzymes (phenol oxidase) following the 5 years of temperature manipulation.…”

“…Monod () also fitted his model to obtain the glucose affinity parameter from a culture of Escherichia coli in a diluted solution of synthetic medium. Further, enzyme assays of potential soil enzyme activities and their substrate affinity parameters are conducted using microplates which hold well‐mixed solutions of substrates and soil samples (Allison et al, ; German et al, ; Loeppmann et al, ; Sihi et al, ; Zhang et al, ). Although petri dishes used for bacterial culture may contain agar gel, the kinetic parameters are still derived by assuming that substrate delivery is not diffusion limited (e.g., Koch, ).…”

“…Variation in the temperature sensitivity of growth efficiency could be driven by differences in the rate-limiting step of central metabolic pathways (Dijkstra et al, 2011a), or in how well the proteins responsible for the extracellular processing and uptake of environmental nutrients are able to maintain activity as temperature increases (Allison et al, 2018;Alster et al, 2018). For instance, there is some evidence that bacteria benefit more than fungi from an increase in temperature, as their growth rate was observed to decrease less rapidly with temperature above its optimum than the fungal community's did .…”
