Anion effects on pyruvate kinase (Short Communication)

Peggy Jo Taylor 1, James L Robinson 1
PMCID: PMC1168375  PMID: 4464855

Abstract

Rabbit muscle pyruvate kinase is shown not to be activated by several anions (acetate, chloride, lactate, nitrate and sulphate) when tested as their tetramethylammonium salts. This contradicts the conclusions of Focant & Watts (1973).
