title: The binding of N-(phosphonacetyl)-L-aspartate to aspartate carbamoyltransferase of Escherichia coli.
abstract: A more precise description of the binding of N-(phosphonacetyl)-L- aspartate to the catalytic chains of aspartate carbamoyltransferase clarifies aspects of the specificity of this enzyme toward its substrates, carbamoylphosphate and L-aspartate, and suggests a catalytic role for His-134.
