Abstract: | Initial velocity steady-state substrate kinetics for ATP phosphoribosyltransferase were determined in the direction reverse to the biosynthetic reaction and are consistent with a sequential kinetic mechanism. Histidine inhibited the reverse reaction cooperatively and completely. Product and alternate product inhibition studies were conducted to elucidate binding order. The alternate product β,γ-methylene ATP was competitive with respect to N1-phosphoribosyl-ATP and noncompetitive with respect to pyrophosphate. Phosphoribosylpyrophosphate was noncompetitive with respect to both substrates. These data and those of the biosynthetic direction reaction are in satisfactory quantitative agreement with the ordered Bi-Bi kinetic mechanism with ATP or phosphoribosyl-ATP binding to free enzyme. |
