Abstract: | Purified glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase from Zymomonas mobilis was examined with respect to inhibition by phosphoenolpyruvate, ADP and ATP. Its molecular weight was 260,000 and the kinetics of substrate conversion indicated a random bi bi mechanism. This enzyme and the dehydrogenases from Z. anaerobia, Azotobacter chroococcum, A. vinelandii, and “Corynebacterium” autotrophicum strain 19/-/x were found to be allosterically inhibited by phosphoenolpyruvate, while those from several coryneform bacteria and from Escherichia coli or Pseudomonas fluorescens were not. |
