COMMENTARY hide
LITERATURE
copper
-
contains a labile copper centre
CuCl2
-
stimulates enzyme activity in vitro
MgCl2
-
stimulates in vitro. Loss of enzyme activity upon lysis of Nitrosomonas europaea results from the loss of copper from the enzyme, generating a catalytically inactive, yet stable and activable, form of the enzyme
Zinc
-
the enzyme contains Cu (9.4 mol per mol enzyme), Fe (3.9 mol per mol enzyme), and Zn (0.5 to 2.6 mol per mol enzyme)
additional information
-
Zn2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Mn2+, Cr3+, and Ag+, are ineffective at stimulating AMO activity
