expression in Escherichia coli Synechocystis sp.

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
N-ethylmaleimide binds to ChlI subunit and inhibits its ATPase activity. The ChlI-ChlD-ATP complex forms but cannot catalyse magnesium chelation. Prior incubation with MgATP2- affords protection. Full protection can also be obtained with 5 mM ATP or 5 mM ADP alone Synechocystis sp.
