PRPP synthase activity was determined as described in Methods. Values are the averages of five determinations.
+, Activity assayed in the presence of 50 mm Pi; −, no Pi present.
−ADP, Activity determined by the standard assay in the presence of 1.0 mm ATP; +ADP, activity assayed in the presence of 1.0 mm ADP and 1.0 mm ATP.
ND, Not determined.
