Abstract excerpt
The pyruvate kinases from Genus Bacillus and a few other bacteria have an extra C-terminal sequence with a phosphoenolpyruvate binding motif composed of about 110 amino acids. To elucidate the possible structure and function of this sequence, the enzyme lacking the sequence was prepared and characterized. The N-terminal sequences of the peptides, which were found only in the lysylendopeptidase digest of the wild...
