Abstract excerpt
Regulation of activity of the proteolytic sites of Lon protease was studied. It was found that ATP-Mg has the properties of a noncompetitive activator of peptidase sites. The processive mechanism of the hydrolysis of protein substrates by Lon protease was experimentally confirmed under the conditions of ATP hydrolysis. It was shown that the oligomeric state of the enzyme is the necessary prerequisite for the...
