Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
Ca2+ inhibits the cleavage of diphosphate in the presence of 2.5 mM Mg2+. 0.01 mM CaCl2 inhibits the enzyme by about 50% Thermoplasma acidophilum
Phenylglyoxal the inhibitory effect of phenylglyoxal is higher at 56°C than at room temperature. With 5 mM phenylglyoxal almost complete inhibition can be observed after 15 min incubation at 56°C Thermoplasma acidophilum

Metals/Ions

Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
Co2+ absolute requirement for divalent cations, 2.5 mM Mn2+ activates 37% compared to 2.5 mM Mg2+ Thermoplasma acidophilum
Mg2+ absolute requirement for divalent cations for catalytic action, Mg2 + (2.5 mM) conferring the highest activity. KM for Mg2+ is approximately 1.7 mM Thermoplasma acidophilum
Mn2+ absolute requirement for divalent cations, 2.5 mM Mn2+ activates 17% compared to 2.5 mM Mg2+ Thermoplasma acidophilum
Zn2+ absolute requirement for divalent cations, 2.5 mM Mn2+ activates 21% compared to 2.5 mM Mg2+ Thermoplasma acidophilum
