Escherichia coli phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase. Studies on the mechanism of synergistic activation by nucleotides.
Kinetic studies were done to obtain a quantitative estimation of the synergistic interactions that occur between phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (orthophosphate:oxaloacetate carboxylase (phosphorylating) E.C. 4.1.1.31) from Escherichia coli K12 and various combinations of its primary substrate, P-enolpyruvate, and the activators acetylcoenzyme A, CDP, GTP, and fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. The ana...
متن کاملAlteration of growth yield by overexpression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in Escherichia coli.
Phosphoenolpyruvate and oxaloacetate are key intermediates at the junction between catabolism and biosynthesis. Alteration of carbon flow at these branch points will affect the growth yield and the formation of products. We attempted to modulate the metabolic flow between phosphoenolpyruvate and oxaloacetate by overexpressing phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase...
متن کاملOn the molecular mechanism of maize phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase activation by thiol compounds.
Incubation of purified phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase from Zea mays L. leaves with dithiothreitol resulted in an almost 2-fold increase in the enzymic activity. The activated enzyme showed the same affinity for its substrates and the same sensitivity with respect to malate and oxalacetate inhibition. The activation induced by dithiothreitol was reversed by diamide, an oxidant of vicinal dithio...
متن کاملSynergistic activation of transcription by Escherichia coli cAMP receptor protein.
Activation of gene expression in eukaryotes generally involves the action of multiple transcription factors that function synergistically when bound near a particular target gene. Such effects have been suggested to occur because multiple activators can interact simultaneously with one or more components of the basal transcription machinery. In prokaryotes, examples of synergistic effects on tr...
متن کاملTranscriptional activation of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase by phosphorus deficiency in tobacco.
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC), which catalyses the carboxylation of phosphoenolpyruvate using HCO(3)(-) to generate oxaloacetic acid, is an important enzyme in the primary metabolism of plants. Although the PEPC genes (ppc) comprise only a small gene family, the function of each gene is not clear, except for roles in C(4) photosynthesis and CAM. Three PEPC genes (Nsppc1-3) from the C(3...
