Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The S. cerevisiae carbamylphosphate synthetase - aspartate transcarbamylase multifunctional protein catalyses the first two reactions of the pyrimidine pathway. In this organism, these two reactions are feedback inhibited by the end product UTP. In the present work, the mechanisms of these integrated inhibitions were studied. RESULTS: The results obtained show that the inhibition is competitive in the...
