... hydrolysis of [32P]ATP[cP] in the presence of 0–400 ng of IRE(Fig. 8). Compared to the amount of ATP hydrolyzed with 400 ng of IRP alone, addition of IRE increased the release of inorganic ... complex formation. Further-more, ATP-cS, but not AMP-PNP, inhibited IRP–IREbinding in extracts from fibroblasts treated with the analogs in culture [41]. Therefore, the 30% inhibition of binding ... com-plex. Enhancement of ATP hydrolysis by IRE in the presence of IRP-1, but absence of hydrolysis in the presence of IRE alone, suggests that ATP may interact with the complex. However, the enhancement...
