This further activation took place without a significant increase in the amount of bound activating CO2 and the effect was relatively greater with smaller amounts of bound CO2. With less than 2·0 mol of CO2 bound per mol holoenzyme, phosphate increased activity about five-fold whilst with 7·0 mol of bound activating CO2 per mol holoenzyme, phosphate increased activity by a factor of only 1 ·8. This decrease in the effect of orthophosphate with increase in bound activating CO2 suggests negative co-operativity between activated sites.
