CONT

De nombreuses enzymes exigent, pour être actives, la présence de cations métalliques (généralement divalents). La spécificité de cette activation est variable, mais souvent assez grande. [...] L'activation enzymatique par des ions est bien différente de l'activation des proenzymes ou zymogènes qui implique des modifications de la protéine enzymatique, souvent accompagnées d'une variation du poids moléculaire (comme dans le cas pepsinogène).
