Abstract

Synthetic polyammonium/polyamine receptors are known to enhance ATP dephosphorylation in solution. ATP interaction with a G-3 poly(ethylene imine) dendrimer shows an unprecedented behaviour, the dendrimer catalyst being able to enhance or inhibit dephosphorylation of the nucleotide depending on the solution pH.
