Aspartate, glutamate or dicarboxylic acids did not inhibit the activity of a highly purified but not homogeneous preparation of pyruvate carboxylase from T. novellus. The only effective inhibitors were end-products of the reaction and, to a lesser degree, hydroxypyruvate. The latter has not been shown previously to regulate the enzyme''s activity. Lineweaver-Burk plots revealed that it was uncompetitive with respect to acetyl CoA and with a Kii of 3.6 mM, and noncompetitive with respect to bicarbonate, Mg ATP and pyruvate with respective Kii values of 7.1, 5.5 and 6.47 nM. The corresponding Kis values were 7.02, 5.4 and 4.25 mM. A mathematical model is presented that supports the findings.
