Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Acetate kinase is used to phosphorylate acetate to acetyl phosphate. Acetate Kinase from Bacillus stearothermophilus has been used to study allosteric activation. [32P]-acetyl phosphate was generated by incubating potassium acetate in the reaction mixture with acetate kinase from Sigma. This [32P]-acetyl phosphate was used to label BldM, BldM D-54N or BldM D-54A loci during the study of the effect of bldM gene on Streptomyces coelicolor development. | [Uses]
Acetate kinase is used to phosphorylate acetate to acetyl phosphate. Acetate Kinase from Escherichia coli has been used as part of an ATP-regenerating system to study the kinetics of agonist-stimulated transphosphatidylation . | [General Description]
Acetate kinase belongs to acetate and sugar kinase/Hsc70/actin (ASKHA) structural superfamily. It exists as a dimer and has nucleotide binding site in the cleft between N and C-terminal domain. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Acetate kinase plays an important role in glycolysis. Acetate kinase phosphorylates acetate in the presence of ATP and a divalent cation, which ultimately results in the production of acetyl-CoA. Acetate kinase is also involved in the metabolism of propanoate, pyruvate and taurine. Acetate Kinase from Bacillus stearothermophilus is a thermostable tetramer of identical subunits with molecular weight of 40,000 Da each. The enzyme does not have a -SH group and is composed of 36% β-structure, 21 % α-helix and 43 % unordered structure. |
