type 3 inhibition exerted by pyruvate ions was shown earlier for 1-anilino-8-naphthalenesulfonate and salicylate ions , but as these two anions are supposed to bind to the adenine binding pocket of the catalytic centre , the results indicate that pyruvate ions might preferably compete with the nucleotide substrate for the polyphosphate binding site .
