Moreover, many textbooks also list the standard free energy for the hydrolysis of PP¡ as AG'=—7.9 to 8.0 kcal mol-1. However, thetrue value for pyrophosphate hydrolysis is significantly less negative (Flodgaard & Fleron, 1974). Therefore, the standard free energy change for the hydrolysis of ATP to AMP and PP¡ must be more negative than 8 kcal mol-1, as is explained in this paper. Upon consulting the literature, we have found that the standard free energy change for the hydrolysis of ATP to AMP and PP¡ is much more negative than the conventional value and much more negative than that for the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP and P¡. This fact has significant implications in metabolism and for the mechanisms of action of enzymes such as aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, NAD+ pyrophosphorylase, nucleotide sugar pyrophosphorylases, PRPP synthetase, DNA ligases, and RNA ligases, as well as DNA and f Supported by Grant No. GM30840 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences.
