mechanism for domain closure. It appears that there is a common barrier between the open- and closed-domain conformations that cannot be overcome in either exploring or targeting simulations. For citrate synthase in the open conformation there are 258 atoms from both domains that are in the domain-contact sets. This increases to only 284 for the closed structure. These atoms come from 61 residues in the open which increases to 66 in the closed. Of these, 57 are common to both open and closed conformations

metabolism

recombinant wild-type CS has no detectable acetylation. Acetylation of lysine residues does not result in significantly different activities with that of the wild-type, except for residues K283 and K295. Acetylation at K283 increases the activity by nearly twofold, while acetylation at K295 decreased the activity by about 10fold. CS can be acetylated by acetyl-phosphate chemically, and be deacetylated by the CobB deacetylase
