Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
arsenate activates gamma-glutamyl transferase reaction Bos taurus
L-glutamate causes conformational changes similar to those produced by Cl-binding Bos taurus

Metals/Ions

Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
Cl- increases the affinity of the enzyme 2fold to 4fold for Mg2+ or Mn2+ Bos taurus
Mg2+ the enzyme has one structural site per subunit for Mn2+ or Mg2+ and a second site per subunit for metal ion-nucleotide complex, both of which must be filled for activity expression Bos taurus
Mn2+ the enzyme has one structural site per subunit for Mn2+ or Mg2+ and a second site per subunit for metal ion-nucleotide complex, both of which must be filled for activity expression Bos taurus
