Mechanism of Sulfate Activation Catalyzed by ATP Sulfurylase - Magnesium Inhibits the Activity

ATPS Sulfurylase (ATPS) is the first of three enzymes in the sulfate reduction pathway - one of the oldest metabolic pathways on Earth, utilized by Sulfate Reducing Bacteria (SRB). Due to the low redox potential of the sulfate ion, its reduction requires activation via formation of adenosine 5′-phos...
