Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
hemin heme can interact strongly with Zn2+-depleted full-length TrpRS, but not the Zn2+-bound enzyme, with a stoichiometric heme:protein ratio of 1:1 to enhance the aminoacylation activity significantly, involvement of heme in regulation of TrpRS aminoacylation activity, overview Homo sapiens
additional information TrpRS is highly upregulated by interferon-gamma, IFN-gamma Homo sapiens
