Many bivalentmetal ions catalyze the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) at pH 5 and 9. In the presence of Cui+ and Zn,+ ions, the rate of hydrolysis of ATP passes through an optimum at pH 5. These ions increase the rate ofhydrolysis of ATP about 60-fold and 12-fold, respectively, at pH 5, compared to the rate of hydrolysis in the absence of bivalent metal ions. The rate of hydrolysis of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) is scarcely affected by many bivalent metal ions at pH 5 but is accelerated by most bivalent metal ionsat pH 9. Cui+ and Zn1+ ions increase the rate of hydrolysis of ADP about 9-fold and 5-fold, respectively, at pH 9. The effect of Mn2+ ions on both ATP and ADP hydrolysis is markedly different from that of Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions. In the hydrolysis of ATP, the amount of inorganic pyrophosphate formed in the presence of bivalent metal ionsis negligible at pH 5. It is of minor importance at pH 9, except in the presence of Ca2+ ions, in which case about one third of the orthophosphate plus pyrophosphate formed is pyrophosphate. It is proposed that the metal ion speci-ficities of ADP and ATP hydrolysis are the consequence of different types of chelates which are formed with different bivalent metal ions and of different reaction mechanisms which operate with different bivalent metal ions.Bivalent metals catalyze the nonenzymatic transfer of phosphate from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to various acceptors such as orthophosphate, acetate, glycine, and/3-alanine (Lowenstein, 1958a, b; Lowen-stein and Schatz, 1961). When orthophosphate is the phosphate acceptor, the product of the reaction is pyrophosphate and the most effective bivalent metal ions are Ca, Sr, and Ba, followed in decreasing order of effectiveness by Mn, Cd, and Zn. The pH optimum of the reaction is 9.0 (Lowenstein, 1958a, 1960). When acetate is used as acceptor in the presence of hydroxy lamine, the product of the reaction is aceto-hydroxamate and the most effective bivalent metal ions are, in decreasing order of effectiveness, Be, Ni, Co, Zn, and Mn. The pH optimum of the reaction is 5.2 (Lowenstein and Schatz, 1961). Similarly, with gly-cine, theproduct of the reaction is glycinehydroxamate and the most effective bivalent metal ions are, in decreasing order of effectiveness, Be, Zn, Mn, Ca, and Cd. The pH optimum of this reaction is 5.0. Various studies of the effect of Mg, Ca, and Ba ions on the hydrolysis of ATP and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) have been reported (Lohmann, 1932; Spicer, 1952; Hock and Huber, 1956; Nanninga, 1957; Liébecq and Jaequemotte-Louis, 1958a, b; Liébecq, 1959; Blum and Felauer, 1959; Lipkin et al., 1959). The effect of ten different bivalent metal ions at pH 8.5 was com-pared by Liébecq and Jacquemotte-Louis (1958a). Of particular interest was a report which dealt with the
