title: [Reaction mechanism of succinyl CoA synthetase from pigeon thoracic muscle].
abstract: The ability of succinyl-CoA-synthetase from pigeon thoracic muscle to interact with ATP is investigated. gamma-32P-ATP and 8-14C-ATP were used in experiments. It is found that the enzyme, when reacting with ATP in the presence of Mg2+, forms a complex containing 2 moles of ATP residue and 2 moles of phosphoric acid residue (splitted from ATP) per 1 mole of protein. After 2 hours of incubation at 0-4 degrees C, the complex is converted into another one, containing 4 residues of phosphoric acid per 1 mole of @protein. Both complexes are active, and their incubation with succinate and CoA results in the formation of succinyl-CoA. The reaction capacity of these enzyme complexes with some reaction substrates is investigated. The enzyme complex containing 2 phosphoric acid residues and 2 nucleotide residues is found to interact neither with CoA, nor with succinate. The enzyme complex containing 4 phosphoric acid residues does not react with CoA, but it interacts with 14C-succinate, releasing inorganic phosphate in the amount equivalent to the equimolar amount of protein-binding succinic acid.
