6.3.2.2 As3+ As3+ coordinately upregulates GCL catalytic subunit and GCL modifier subunit mRNA levels resulting in increased GCL subunit protein expression, holoenzyme formation, and activity. As3+ increases the rate of transcription of both the GCL catalytic subunit and GCL modifier subunit genes and induces the posttranscriptional stabilization of GCL modifier subunit mRNA. The antioxidant N-acetylcysteine abolishes As3+-induced GCL catalytic subunit expression and attenuates induction of GCL modifier subunit. As3+ induction of GCL catalytic subunit and GCL modifier subunit is also differentially regulated by the MAPK signaling pathways and occurrs independent of the Nrf1/2 transcription factors 703807 6.3.2.2 Cu2+ 2 divalent metal ions per enzyme molecule are bound, can be replaced by Mn2+ and Mg2+, binding mechanism and kinetics, overview 652341 6.3.2.2 Cu2+ induces expression of heavy subunit 651393 6.3.2.2 K+ absolute requirement for Mg2+, Mn2+, and K+ ions 706061 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ - 1126, 650713, 651896, 690385, 690440, 690630, 691909, 691912, 692055, 692058, 692442, 692444, 694060, 694485, 694609, 694674 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ 2 divalent metal ions per enzyme molecule are bound, Mg2+ sharpens the substrate specificity, increases the resistance to L-buthionine-S,R-sulfoximine, can be replaced by Mn2+ and Cu2+, binding mechanism and kinetics, overview 652341 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ absolute requirement for Mg2+, Mn2+, and K+ ions 706061 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ absolute requirement, maximal activity at 30-50 mM 1149 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ divalent metal ion required, especially Mg2+, optimal concentration depending on ATP concentration 1120 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ inactive in absence of Mg2+, maximal activity at 10 mM 1126 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ Mg2+ or Mn2+ are required 650135 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ required 672367, 694060, 726910, 726912, 744070, 744122, 744469, 744853, 745490, 745492, 745734, 745745, 745805, 745888, 745900 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ required as MgATP2- 650634 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ required, best at 20 mM 744438 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ required, bound as MgATP2-, the metal ion specificity is determined by the second binding site n2 which also is involved in ATP binding, located in the active site and formed by 3 conserved residues Glu53, Gln321, and Glu489, Mg2+ can partly be substituted by Mn2+ 652192 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ required, bound to the erythrocyte enzyme 649263 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ required, bound to the kidney enzyme, involved in enzyme phosphorylation, can be substituted by Mn2+ by 25% 649263 6.3.2.2 Mg2+ required, bound to the kidney enzyme, involved in enzyme phosphorylation, can be substituted by Mn2+ by only 25% 649263 6.3.2.2 Mn2+ 2 divalent metal ions per enzyme molecule are bound, Mg2+ broadens the substrate specificity, decreases the resistance to L-buthionine-S,R-sulfoximine, can be replaced by Mg2+ and Cu2+, binding mechanism and kinetics, overview 652341 6.3.2.2 Mn2+ absolute requirement for Mg2+, Mn2+, and K+ ions 706061 6.3.2.2 Mn2+ bound to the erythrocyte enzyme 649263 6.3.2.2 Mn2+ bound to the kidney enzyme, can substitute for Mg2+ by 25% 649263 6.3.2.2 Mn2+ bound to the kidney enzyme, can substitute for Mg2+ by only 25% 649263 6.3.2.2 Mn2+ can partly substitute for Mg2+ 652192 6.3.2.2 Mn2+ can replace Mg2+ with 18% of the efficiency 1126 6.3.2.2 Mn2+ Mg2+ or Mn2+ are required 650135 6.3.2.2 additional information the first metal binding site n1 binds free metal ions and is composed of 3 conserved residues Glu55, Glu93, and Glu100, n1 also is involved in positioning of L-glutamate for the reaction, located in the active site 652192 6.3.2.2 sodium arsenite induces expression of heavy subunit 651393 6.3.2.2 Zn2+ induces expression of heavy subunit 651393
