General Stability

General Stability Organism
the enzyme is most stable in the absence of salt Haloferax denitrificans

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
azide competitive inhibitor with respect to nitrate Haloferax denitrificans
Chlorate competitive inhibitor with respect to nitrate Haloferax denitrificans
cyanide preincubating the enzyme with cyanide increases the extent of inhibition which in turn is intensified when dithionite is present. Although cyanide is a noncompetitive inhibitor with respect to nitrate, nitrate protects against inhibition Haloferax denitrificans
thiocyanate 10 mM, 53% inhibition. Preincubating for 1 h does not increase the inhibition Haloferax denitrificans

Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
KCl maximum activity occurrs in the absence of NaCl and decreases with increasing concentrations of NaCl so that the activity is 46% of maximum when the enzyme is assayed in the presence of 4 M NaCl. Replacing NaCl with KCl does not significantly change the response Haloferax denitrificans
