The tritium kinetic isotope effect on position 2 has been determined in the reaction of decomposition
of L-tryptophan, L-Trp, catalyzed by enzyme TPase, (EC 4.1.99.1). The numerical values of isotope effects in the course of reaction were obtained by the competitive method using
[1-14C]-L-tryptophan as internal radiometric standard.
