The liganded state of SK includes binary complexes with SO4 or MgADP ([[1l4y]]) and ternary complexes with shikimate as the first ligand and SO4 ([[2g1k]]), ADP ([[1u8a]]), MgADP, or AMPPCP (an ATP analogue) ([[1zyu]]) as the second ligand.<ref name="miscinfo" />

Magnesium ion hold influence over the position of shikimate hydroxy groups. This ion has a role in the transfer of the γ-phosphate of ATP to the 3-hydroxy group on shikimate. Chloride ions increase enzyme affinity for ADP and ATP and help to bind the nucleotide substrate in correct orientation.<ref name="mgcl"> Effects of the magnesium and chloride ions and shikimate on the structure of shikimate kinase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis Structural Biology and Crystallization Communications
