title: Carbamate kinase of Lactobacillus buchneri NCDO110. II. Kinetic studies and reaction mechanism.
abstract: The participation of Mg2+ or Mn2+ nucleoside diphosphates in the reverse reaction catalyzed by purified carbamate kinase (ATP:carbamate phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.2.2) of Lactobacillus buchneri NCDO110 was studied. The results of initial velocity studies have indicated that Mn2+ ADP is as effective as a substrate as Mg2+ ADP is. Product inhibition studies have revealed that the enzyme has two distinct sites, one for nucleoside diphosphate and the other for carbamyl phosphate. The reaction of the enzyme with the substrates is of the random type.
