Abstract excerpt
A cluster of conserved histidines and arginines (His-62, His-167, Arg-21, Arg-38, and Arg-168) in 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) has been implicated as possibly involved in the binding of 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PG) and/or stabilization of the negatively charged transition state. The role of these...
