Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
EDTA 1 mM Sulfolobus acidocaldarius
KCl 100 mM, 80% inhibition Sulfolobus acidocaldarius
Mg2+ above 2 mM Sulfolobus acidocaldarius
additional information no inhibition by 0.02 mg/ml aphidicolin. The enzyme is inhibited by dideoxy- and arabinosine-analogs and SH-blocking agents Sulfolobus acidocaldarius

Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
Mg2+ the enzyme requires an extremely low concentration of Mg+2 cations for activity. A broad plateau is observed between 0.1 and 2 mM MgCl2. Concentrations above 2 mM are inhibitory. 20% of the activity of the plateau value is still observed even if no MgCl2 is added to the assay Sulfolobus acidocaldarius

deoxynucleoside triphosphate + DNAn the activated herring sperm DNA is an optimal template and gives 3times higher activity than that obtained with poly(dA)/oligo(dT). The DNA polymerase can not use templates without primer (poly(dA) and poly(dT)), even when appropriate priming ribonucleotides (UTP or ATP, respectively) are supplied. It does not accept a polyribonucleotide template (poly(rA):oligo(dT)) Sulfolobus acidocaldarius diphosphate + DNAn+1
