چکیده

The kinetics of the action of fumarase on L-malate and fumarate were investigated at constant ionic strength. This was done to evaluate reports that fumarase follows simple Michaelis-Menten kinetics. However, when pH, buffer concentration and ionic strength are all maintained at constant values, the Lineweaver-Burk plots exhibit pronounced downward curvature, characteristic of negative kinetic co-operativity.

Kinetics of hexokinase D ('glucokinase') with inosine triphosphate as phosphate donor. Loss of kinetic co-operativity with respect to glucose.

When ATP, the normal phosphate donor for hexokinase D ('glucokinase'), is replaced by ITP, the positive co-operativity with respect to glucose disappears. This may be rationalized in relation to kinetic models for hexokinase D co-operativity, which assume that with the normal substrates the chemical reaction and subsequent release of products occur so rapidly that binding of substrates cannot a...
