COMMENTARY 
LITERATURE
IMAGE
6-thio-GTP
the GTP analogue is capable of activating Gln-dependent CTP formation
6-thioguanosine 5'-triphosphate
0 mM guanosine, kact: 8.5/sec, KA: 0.035 mM, Ki: 0.27 mM
dithiothreitol
-
required for optimal activity, above 50 mM increase activity to 223% mM
O-methylguanosine 5'-triphosphate
0 mM guanosine, kact: 2.8/sec, KA: 0.13 mM, Ki: 0.29 mM
O6-methyl-GTP
the GTP analogue is capable of activating Gln-dependent CTP formation
2'-deoxy-GTP
the GTP analogue is capable of activating Gln-dependent CTP formation
2-mercaptoethanol
-
required for optimal activity, above 50 mM increase activity to 221%
GTP
-
required as allosteric effector to promote reaction with glutamine as substrate, GTP functions by stabilizing the protein conformation that binds the tetrahedral intermediate(s) formed during glutamine hydrolysis
GTP
allosteric effector, structural requirements for activation are stringent, but requirements for inhibition are lax. GTP promotes Gln hydrolysis but inhibits Gln-dependent CTP formation at concentrations of over 0.15 mM
GTP
-
GTP acts a positive allosteric effector for Gln-dependent CTP formation. However, at concentrations exceeding 0.15 mM, GTP inhibits Gln-dependent CTP formation. Moreover, GTP is an inhibitor of NH3-dependent CTP formation at all concentrations
GTP
-
the binding of GTP to the allosteric site promotes coordination of the phosphorylation of UTP and hydrolysis of glutamine for optimal efficiency in CTP synthesis rather than just acting to increase the rate of glutamine hydrolysis itself
GTP
-
not essential, but acts as activator on the glutamine reaction, optimal activation at 1 mM
GTP
-
activates glutamine-dependent CTP formation at concentrations below 0.2 mM
guanosine 5'-tetraphosphate
0 mM guanosine, kact: 4/sec, KA: 0.19 mM, Ki: 0.5 mM
guanosine 5'-tetraphosphate
the GTP analogue is capable of activating Gln-dependent CTP formation
ITP
the GTP analogue is capable of activating Gln-dependent CTP formation
additional information
activation potency in descending order: GTP = 6-thio-GTP, ITP = guanosine 5'-tetraphosphate, O6-methyl-GTP, 2'-deoxy-GTP, no activation with guanosine, GMP, GDP, 2',3'-dideoxy-GTP, acycloguanosine, and acycloguanosine monophosphate, indicating that the 5'-triphosphate, 2'-OH, and 3'-OH are required for full activation, binding structures and kinetics, overview

additional information
binding of the substrates ATP and UTP, or the product CTP, promotes oligomerization of CTPS from inactive dimers to active tetramers, Gly142 is critical for nucleotide-dependent oligomerization of CTPS to active tetramers

additional information
-
the URA7-encoded enzyme is phosphorylated by protein kinases A and C at Ser424, and these phosphorylations stimulate CTP synthetase activity and increase cellular CTP levels and the utilization of the Kennedy pathway
