Kinetic Studies of the Interaction of Pigeon‐Liver NAD Kinase with Adenine Nucleotides and Divalent Cations
1972
1
NAD kinase is inhibited by free Mg2+, free ATP and by a number of other adenine nucleotides.
2
Inhibition by ATP, ADPMg−, ADP-ribose2− and AMP2− is competitive with respect to both ATPMg2− and NAD+.
3
ATP appears to bind equally well to the free enzyme and to binary enzyme · substrate complexes.
4
The other adenine nucleotides studied have markedly less affinity for the free enzyme than for binary complexes.
5
Mg2+ probably inhibits by forming a complex with NAD+, which binds to the enzyme but is inactive in the reaction.
6
Low concentrations of Mg2+ reduce KmNAD+ in an unexplained manner.
7
ATPCa2− is a substrate for NAD kinase, but the rate-limiting step of the reaction may be different when other metals activate the enzyme.
