Inhibitors

EC Number Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
4.2.3.48 EDTA 1 mM, activity is fully restored by the addition of Mg2+ to a saturating concentration of 1 mM. Mn2+ is about half as effective as Mg2+ at 1 mM Zea mays
4.2.3.48 Mn2+ activates at 1 mM, inhibits at higher concentrations Zea mays

Metals/Ions

EC Number Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
4.2.3.48 Co2+ nerolidol synthase is completely inactive in the absence of added divalent metal ion. Mg2+ is most effective. Co2+ shows 11% of the activity compared to Mg2+ Zea mays
4.2.3.48 Cu2+ nerolidol synthase is completely inactive in the absence of added divalent metal ion. Mg2+ is most effective. Cu2+ shows 12% of the activity compared to Mg2+ Zea mays
4.2.3.48 Mg2+ nerolidol synthase is completely inactive in the absence of added divalent metal ion. Mg2+ is most effective. Other divalent cations are less effective in supporting catalysis. Metal ions in order of edcreasing efficiency: Mg2+, Mn2+, Co2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Zn2+. KM-value for Mg2+ is 0.125 mM Zea mays
4.2.3.48 Mn2+ nerolidol synthase is completely inactive in the absence of added divalent metal ion. Mn2+ is half as effective as Mg2+ at 1 mM, inhibits at higher concentrations Zea mays
4.2.3.48 Ni2+ nerolidol synthase is completely inactive in the absence of added divalent metal ion. Mg2+ is most effective. Ni2+ shows 17% of the activity compared to Mg2+ Zea mays
