Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
ethyleneglycol 5%, activity is stimulated by 30% Thermoplasma acidophilum
glycerol 5%, activity is stimulated by 30% Thermoplasma acidophilum
additional information no stimulation with poly(ethy1ene glycol) Thermoplasma acidophilum

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
2',3'-dideoxyribosylthymine triphosphate the enzyme is slightly sensitive to. 25% inhibition is observed with a ddTTP/dTTP ratio of 50 Thermoplasma acidophilum
additional information the enzyme is resistant to aphidicolin Thermoplasma acidophilum
N-ethylmaleimide inhibited when preincubation with this reagent is performed at 65°C Thermoplasma acidophilum

Metals/Ions

Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
MgCl2 optimal activity is obtained in the presence of 4 mM MgCl2 Thermoplasma acidophilum
MnCl2 sustitution of MgCl2 by MnCl2 produces a slight decrease of activity. Optimal activity is obtained in the presence of 0.4 mM MgCl2 Thermoplasma acidophilum
