Title: Regulation of aspartate carbamoyltransferase of Escherichia coli by the interrelationship of magnesium and nucleotides. Author: Christopherson RI, Finch LR. Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1977 Mar 15; 481(1):80-5. PubMed ID: 321032. Abstract: Purified aspartate carbamoyltransferase from Escherichia coli K12 (carbamoylphosphate: L-aspartate carbamyltransferase, EC 2.1.3.2) shows greater activity with nucleotide effectors as the magnesium nucleotide complex than with similar amounts of the sodium nucleotide. Regulation of aspartate carbamoyltransferase activity in vivo may occur by changes in the total concentration of regulatory nucleotides or, under conditions of magnesium-limited growth, by variation of the saturation of the nucleotides with magnesium.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
