CofactorMech:nickel · CHEBI:49786

nickel(2+) is represented by the precise ChEBI entity CHEBI:49786. Cofactor roles are chemical-context annotations; ingredient links describe chemical supply and do not establish uptake, bioavailability or a requirement for every organism.

Chemical identity evidence

Scoped relationships

Provisional links retain upstream ingredient identifiers. Verified links describe the cited source context, not universal organism requirements. Conjugate forms and precursor supply are distinct relationships.

Supplied by · CHEBI:53542

PROVISIONAL · mediaingredientmech

The source is a chemically specified salt containing this metal in the +2 oxidation state; supply is chemical composition, not proof of uptake, cellular availability or enzyme occupancy.

VERIFIED · proteintraitsmech

Conceptual requirement coverage: this PTM trait defines the requirement for the same ChEBI chemical. It is not an organism-level or enzyme-level measurement.

Linked source record: data/traits/function/cofactor_requirement/chebi/nickel-2-chebi49786.yaml
Source revision: 8d08b33cfbee1e9d1c2fdb2211b82b49dd0c8b1f

  • PTM cofactor-requirement concept — The target is a CLASS trait with an explicit cross-reference to this chemical, rather than a measured protein observation.

PathwayMech edge allantoin-glyoxylate-iii-edge-036 records UniProtKB:P77731 has_cofactor CHEBI:49786. This is a cross-reference to the source-scoped reaction or cofactor annotation, not proof of complete pathway flux. The link concerns nickel-dependent urea release by purified AllA; it does not assign a universal metal stoichiometry.
