Abstract: | Uridine is rapidly incorporated into the free pyrimidine nucleotides of the isolated perfused rabbit heart. The initial uptake depends on the concentration of precursor, following a Menten-Michaelis like pattern (apparent Km 5 μM).In a dose of 20 μmole.l?1, amounts of labelled uridine corresponding to about a third of the pool of uracil nucleotides are incorporated during the first half hour of administration. Then the rate or uridine uptake decreases with time while the uracil nucleotide pool size increases. |
