Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
2-oxoglutarate in cell extracts, alanine activity is inhibited by 50% by about 2.5 mM 2-oxoglutarate, while the aspartate activity is unaffected at this concentration. The highly purified enzyme is also inhibited by 2-oxoglutarate, but the extent of inhibition is slightly more than that in extracts. Thus, alanine activity is completely inhibited by 10 mM 2-oxoglutarate, and 36% of the aspartate activity is inhibited Methanococcus aeolicus
L-aspartate inhibits tyrosine transamination Methanococcus aeolicus
L-cysteine 10 mM, 30% inactivation Methanococcus aeolicus
L-histidine inhibition is relieved by high concentrations of substrates Methanococcus aeolicus
additional information the activities with 2 mM aspartate or alanine are not inhibited by 10 mM isoleucine, phenylalanine, arginine, asparagine, glutamine, glycine, lysine, methionine, proline, serine, and threonine Methanococcus aeolicus
