Using a highly purified enzyme preparation of uridine phosphorylase from Escherichia coli B, we have performed detailed kinetic studies which include initial-velocity and product-inhibition experiments in the forward and reverse directions of the reaction. These studies indicate a rapid-equilibrium random mechanism for this enzyme with the formation of an enzyme . uracil phosphate abortive complex. Lack of formation of the enzyme . uridine . ribose-1-phosphate abortive complex suggests that the ribosyl moiety of the two ligands compete for the same binding site. The random mechanism is different from the ordered addition of substrates found for uridine phosphorylase from other sources. All the kinetic constants in the forward and reverse directions and the Keq of reaction for E. coli uridine phosphorylase are reported herein.
