Biophysical and Mechanistic Characterization of Carbamoyl Phosphate Synthetase from Escherichia coli

Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase (CPS) from E. coli catalyzes the formation of carbamoyl phosphate, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of pyrimidine nucleotides and arginine, from glutamine, bicarbonate and two molecules of MgATP. This reaction is catalyzed by three separate active sites that are sep...
