Subunits

Subunits Comment Organism
dimer inactive enzyme form Hordeum vulgare
monomer active enzyme form Hordeum vulgare
More structure modeling, overview. The quaternary structure of the enzyme is affected by addition of either single or both substrates in either direction of the reaction, resulting in a shift from UGPase dimers toward monomers, the active form of the enzyme. The substrate-induced changes in quaternary structure of the enzyme may have a regulatory role to assure maximal activity. The ratio of monomers to dimers is about 5:1 in absence of substrate Hordeum vulgare
