Abstract
Uncomplexed ATP, ADP, α,β-methylene ATP and adenosinetetraphosphate were shown to activate long chain fatty acyl-coenzyme A synthetase. The presence of uncomplexed nucleotides was shown: (1) to induce the palmitoyl-AMP-dependent palmitoyl-coenzyme A formation, (2) to activate the MgATP-dependent overall reaction and (3) to stabilize the synthetase against ageing denaturation. In all three cases the observed nucleotide activation was shown to be eliminated upon metal chelation.
