Mechanism of energization of transhydrogenase in Escherichia coli membranes

Low concentrations of the group IIA metals Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, and Ba²⁺ stimulated energy-independent transhydrogenase activity. High concentrations of Mg²⁺ inhibited this activity. Transhydrogenase requires Mg²⁺-complexed NADP(H) rather than free NADP(H) as its substrate. High concentrations of Mg2+, howev...
