摘要
The role of NADH in stimulating ATP-dependent CO2 fixation has been examined in crude extracts of Hydrogenomonas facilis. It has been found that the stimulation cannot be attributed to reduction of the product, 3-phosphoglyceric acid, and consequent regeneration of substrate. Rather, NADH appears to specifically affect phosphoribulokinase, probably by causing an allosteric transition of this regulatory enzyme. The kinetics of the NADH effect on CO2 fixation suggest cooperative binding of the effector. A similar cooperative response of the enzyme to ATP has been noted. It is suggested that the control of CO2 fixation is mediated by allosteric regulation of phosphoribulokinase activity. © 1969.
