Abstract: The bonding properties, enviroment and the dissociation constant of glucoamylase with Tb(Ⅲ) as a fluorescent probe were investigated. The results show that an enzyme molecule could be bonded with 4 Tb(Ⅲ) at 20℃> pH 4.6, and the bonding site is in the free carboxyl groups which belong to Glu/Asp, KD was calculated to be 2. 5×10-4mol/L. The fluorescence intensity of Tb(Ⅲ) is greatly sensitized by the enzyme to 1000 folds at 545 nm. On the contrary, the fluorescence intensity of glucoamylase at 345 nm is quenched and the quenching efficiency is calculated to be 0. 75%.
