  1. WT and H208F mutant were added to 10 different solutions containing 7.8–4000 µg/mL substrate in 20 mM sodium phosphate buffer at pH 8.5 for alginate-based polysaccharides, and pH 8 for poly-GlcA. Enzymatic activity was monitored by absorbance at 235 nm, and all reactions were performed in triplicate. Turnover rate (k CAT) was calculated using an extinction coefficient of 6150 M−1 cm−1 for the unsaturated product [11, 12]. K M values are based upon an effective molecular weight of 176 for the monosaccharide unit, the smallest product formed by Smlt2602 during catalysis [12, 52]
