Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
Pyruvamide activates, pyruvate and pyruvamide have different activation pathways with distinct binding sites Saccharomyces cerevisiae
pyruvate allosteric substrate activation, alternating sites mechanism, random binding of pyruvate in the regulatory and active site, regulatory pyruvate is first bound to C-221 on the beta domain, binding generates a signal which is transmitted to the thiamine diphosphate cofactor, signal pathway, study of the pH-dependence of activation, two-step phenomenological model of activation, kinetics, pyruvate and pyruvamide have different activation pathways with distinct binding sites Saccharomyces cerevisiae
