3.1.1.34 after fulll denaturation in 6 M guanidinium choride or after dissociation in monomers in 1 M guanidinium chloride. Presence of Ca2+ is crucial for reactivation, which involves at least two steps. First step is rapid and results in formation of an inactive monomer with a completely folded C-terminal domain, second step is promoted by Ca2+ and converts enzyme monomers to dimerization-competent and more tightly folded monomers that rapidly form active dimers. Proline isomerization is rate-limiting for the second step Bos taurus
