Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
Co2+ above 2 mM Escherichia coli
Cu2+ inhibition is not reversed by EDTA, in presence of dithiothreitol inhibition at concentrations below 0.2 mM Escherichia coli
Mn2+ above 2 mM Escherichia coli
Ni2+ in presence of dithiothreitol inhibition at concentrations below 0.2 mM Escherichia coli
Zn2+ inhibition is reversed by EDTA, in presence of dithiothreitol inhibition at concentrations below 0.2 mM Escherichia coli

Metals/Ions

Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
Co2+ stimulates at a lower level than Mg2+ Escherichia coli
Mg2+ the enzyme requires more Mg2+ for full catalytic activity than required simply to complex the nucleotide substrate. Half-saturation value for Mg2+ is 2.6 mM for the reaction with NH4+ and 2.4 mM for the glutamine-dependent reaction Escherichia coli
Mn2+ stimulates at a lower level than Mg2+ Escherichia coli
