Carbamyl phosphate synthetase of Escherichia coli uses the same diastereomer of adenosine-5'-[2-thiotriphosphate] at both ATP sites.

Carbamyl phosphate synthetase from Escherichia coli has been shown to use only the A isomer of adenosine-5'-[2-thiotriphosphate] in both the ATPase reaction (MgATP HCO3- leads to MgADP + Pi) and the carbamyl phosphate synthesis reaction (2MgATP + HCO3- + L-glutamine leads to 2MgADP + Pi + carbamyl-P + L-glutamate). The B isomer was less than 5% as reactive. In the reverse reaction, only the A isomer of adenosine-5'-[2-thiotriphosphate] is synthesized from adenosine-5'-[2-thiodiphosphate] and carbamyl-P as determined by 31P NMR and a coupled enzymatic assay with Cd2+- hexokinase. It is therefore proposed that carbamyl phosphate synthetase uses the same diastereomer of MgATP at both ATP sites.[1]
