- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences…
- 25 April 2000
Polyphosphate kinase (PPK), encoded by the ppk gene, is the principal enzyme in many bacteria for the synthesis of inorganic polyphosphate (poly P) from ATP. A knockout mutant in the ppk gene of… Expand

Inorganic polyphosphate (Poly P) is a polymer of tens to hundreds of phosphate residues linked by "high-energy" phosphoanhydride bonds as in ATP. Found in abundance in all cells in nature, it is… Expand
Inorganic polyphosphate: a molecule of many functions.

- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of bacteriology
- 1 April 1998
A major impediment to understanding the biological roles of inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) has been the lack of sensitive definitive methods to extract and quantitate cellular polyP. We show that… Expand
The enzymatic mechanism of oxidation-reductions between malate or isocitrate and pyruvate.
- A. Mehler, A. Kornberg
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of biological chemistry
- 1 July 1948
The discovery of carbon dioxide assimilation by heterotrophic bacteria (1) and animal tissues (2) aroused considerable interest in the mechanisms involved. Evidence from various sources suggested the… Expand
ATP activates dnaA protein in initiating replication of plasmids bearing the origin of the E. coli chromosome
- K. Sekimizu, D. Bramhill, A. Kornberg
- Biology, Medicine
- Cell
- 17 July 1987
ATP is bound to dnaA protein with high affinity (KD = 0.03 microM) and hydrolyzed slowly to ADP in the presence of DNA. ADP is also bound tightly to dnaA protein and exchanges with ATP very slowly.… Expand
A polyphosphate kinase (PPK2) widely conserved in bacteria
- H. Zhang, K. Ishige, A. Kornberg
- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences…
- 16 December 2002
Synthesis of inorganic polyphosphate (poly P) from the terminal phosphate of ATP is catalyzed reversibly by poly P kinase (PPK, now designated PPK1) initially isolated from Escherichia coli. PPK1 is… Expand
The dnaA protein complex with the E. coli chromosomal replication origin (oriC) and other DNA sites
- R. Fuller, B. Funnell, A. Kornberg
- Biology, Medicine
- Cell
- 1 October 1984
Specific binding of dnaA protein to the E. coli origin of replication (oriC) is essential for initiation of chromosomal replication. Based on binding of plasmid DNA fragments, dnaA protein recognizes… Expand
