The effect of several inhibitors of the enzyme cyclic 3′,5′-AMP phosphodiesterase as chemoattractants in Physarum polycephalum was examined. Of the compounds tested, 4-(3-butoxy-4-methoxybenzyl)-2-imidazolidinone (Roche 20-1724/001) and 1-ethyl-4-(isopropylidinehydrazino)-1H-pyrazolo-(3,4-b)-pyridine-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester, hydrochloride (Squibb 20009) were the most potent attractants. 3-Isobutyl-1-methyl xanthine, theophylline, and morin (a flavanoid) were moderate attractants and sometimes gave negative chemotaxis at high concentrations. Cyclic 3′,5′-AMP was an effective, but not potent attractant. A repellent effect following the positive chemotactic action was sometimes observed with cyclic 3′,5′-AMP at concentrations as high as 1 · 10−2 M. Dibutyryl cyclic AMP appeared to be a somewhat more potent attractant than cyclic 3′,5′-AMP. The 8-thiomethyl and 8-bromoderivatives of cyclic AMP, which are poorly hydrolyzed by the phosphodiesterase, were not attractants in Physarum. Possible participation of cyclic 3′,5′-AMP in the directional movement in P. polycephalum is discussed. 相似文献

The effect of adenosine on the mouse thymocyte adenylate cyclase-adenosine 3′:5′-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) system was examined. Adenosine, like prostaglandin E1, can cause 5-fold or greater increases in thymocyte cyclic AMP content in the presence but not in the absence of certain cyclic phosphodiesterase inhibitors. Two non-methylxanthine inhibitors potentiated the prostaglandin E1 and adenosine responses, while methylxanthines selectively inhibited the adenosine response. Adenosine increased cyclic AMP content significantly wihtin 1 min and was maximal by 10 to 20 min with approx. 2 and 10 μM adenosine being minimal and half-maximal effective doses, respectively. Combinations of prostaglandin E1, isoproterenol and adenosine were near additive and not synergistic. Of the adenosine analogues tested, only 2-chloro- and 2-fluoroadenosine significantly increased cyclic AMP. Thymocytes prelabeled with [14C] adenine exhibited dramatic increases in cyclic [14C]AMP 10 min after addition of adenosine or prostaglandin E1 which corresponded to simultaneously determined increases in total cyclic AMP. Using [14C]adenosine, the percent of total cyclic AMP increase due to adenosine was only 16%. Adenosine was also shown to elicit a 40% increase in particulate thymocyte adenylate cyclase activity. Therefore, the increased content of cyclic AMP seen in mouse thymocytes after incubation with adenosine was due primarily to stimulation of adenylate cyclase and only partially to conversion of adenosine to cyclic AMP. The increased cellular content of cyclic AMP may be, in part, responsible for various immunosuppressive effects of adenosine. 相似文献

We have isolated a mutant of the luminous bacterium Beneckea harveyi, which requires exogenous adenosine 3′,5′-monphosphate (cyclic AMP) to snnthesize luciferase and emit light. The mutant was pleiotropic, lacking not only the ability to luminesce, but also the capacities to form flagella and the ability to utilize a variety of carbohydrates for growth. All these deficiencies could be corrected by added cyclic AMP. The cyclic AMP-induced de novo synthesis of luciferase was possible only ffter autoinduction had occurred. The induction time by cyclic AMP ranged between 6 and 10 min at 27°C. 相似文献

Nucleosides in which the adenine ring has been moved from the 1′ position to the 5′ position are resistant to degradation by the enzyme, adenosine deaminase. This study provides further evidence for the importance of the 5′-hydroxyl group as a structural requirement for significant substrate activity. 相似文献

The effects of epinephrine on cyclic AMP content and protein kinase activity were examined in an in situ rat heart preparation. Bolus injection of epinephrine into the superior vena cava caused an increase in the activity ratio (—cyclic AMP/+cyclic AMP) of 12 000 × g supernatant protein kinase. The increase was significant within 5 s and maximal in 10 s. Epinephrine produced a dose-dependent increase in both protein kinase activity ratio and cyclic AMP content. The increases in both parameters exhibited a high degree of correlation. The increase in protein kinase activity ratio observed with low doses of epinephrine (less than or equal to 1 μg/kg) resulted from an increase in independent protein kinase activity (—cyclic 2 AMP) without a change in total protein observ activity (+cyclic AMP). However, the increase in the activity ratio observed with higher doses of epinephrine (greater than 1 μg/kg) was due mainly to a decrease in total protein kinase activity rather than a further increase in independent protein kinase activity. The loss of supernatant total protein kinase activity could be accounted for by an increase in activity associated with particulate fractions obtained from the homogenates. A similar redistribution of protein kinase could be demonstrated by the addition of cyclic AMP to homogenates prepared from hearts not stimulated with epinephrine. These results demonstrate that epinephrine over a wide dose range produces a parallel increase in the content of cyclic AMP and the activation of soluble protein kinase. The findings also suggest that protein kinase translocation to particulate material may depend on the degree of epinephrine-induced enzyme activation. 相似文献

The influence of a phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C treatment on rat heart sarcolemmal 5′-nucleotidase was investigated. Upon complete hydrolysis of all phosphatidylinositol in the sarcolemma, 75% of 5′-nucleotidase activity was found in the solubilized form. The insolubilized enzyme after this treatment has the same Km for AMP as the untreated, sarcolemmal-bound enzyme (0.04 mM), whereas the solubilized enzyme has a 40-fold increase in Km for AMP (0.16 mM). Other sarcolemmal-bound enzymes were not affected by the same treatment. Hence, the specific involvement of phosphatidylinositol in the binding of 5′-nucleotidase to the sarcolemma of the rat heart is clearly demonstrated. 相似文献

To determine if increased 5′-methylthioadenosine phosphorylase activity in activated lymphocytes may be responsible for the decreased inhibitory effect noted when 5′-methylthioadenosine is added after stimulation, the activity of this enzyme was monitored during lymphocyte transformation. A direct correlation existed between the transformation process and 5′-methylthioadenosine phosphorylase activity; the longer the stimulation process progressed, the greater the enzyme activity. The 7-deaza analog of 5′-methylthioadenosine, 5′-methylthiotubercidin, was utilized to explore further the role that the phosphorylase may play in the reversal process. 5′-Methylthioadenosine acted as a potent inhibitor, but not a substrate, of the 5′-methylthioadenosine phosphorylase, and was an even more potent inhibitor of lymphocyte transformation than 5′-methylthioadenosine. However, in direct contrast to the 5′-methylthioadenosine effect, inhibition by 5′-methylthiotubercidin could not be completely reversed. These data suggest the 5′-methylthioadenosine phosphorylase plays an important role in reversing 5′-methylthioadenosine-mediated inhibition and that the potent, nonreversible inhibitory effects of 5′-methylthiotubercidin are due to its resistance to 5′-methylthioadenosine phosphorylase degradation. 相似文献

2′,3′-Dideoxy-3′-aminonucleoside 5′-triphosphates are shown to be strong inhibitors of repair DNA synthesis in γ-irradiated rat liver chromatin. The activity of these compounds is comparable with that of the most effective inhibitor of the DNA polymerase β-catalyzed repair DNA synthesis. 相似文献

Dinucleoside(5′,5′) polyphosphates (ApnA, ApnG, GpnG, n=3–6) are new group of hormones controlling important biological processes. Because some of the dinucleoside(5′,5′) polyphosphates are commercially not available purification of chemical synthesised dinucleoside(5′,5′) polyphosphates became necessary in order to test their physiological and pharmacological properties. It was the aim of this study to find a method which allows purification of 0.1–0.2 g quantities of dinucleoside polyphosphates by analytical HPLC columns yielding products with impurities lower than 1.0%. Adenosine(5′)-polyphospho-(5′)guanosines were synthesised by mixing the corresponding mononucleotides. The reaction results in a complex mixture of ApnA, ApnG and GpnG (with n=3–6 in all cases). The reaction mixture was concentrated on a preparative C18 reversed-phase column. The concentrate was displaced on a reversed-phase stationary. As a result of displacement chromatography, anion-exchange chromatography in gradient modus yielded baseline separated dinucleoside polyphosphates (homogeneity of the fractions>99%). The identity of the substances were determined by matrix assisted laser desorption ionisation mass spectrometry. 相似文献

We previously reported that 3,5,4′-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene (resveratrol), a polyphenolic phytoalexin found in grapes, induces a high frequency of sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) in vitro. In this study, to investigate structure activity relationships, we synthesized six analogues of resveratrol differing in number and position of hydroxy groups, and we investigated their activity in chromosomal aberration (CA), micronucleus (MN) and sister chromatid exchange (SCE) tests in a Chinese hamster cell line (CHL). Two of the six analogues (3,4′-dihydroxy-trans-stilbene and 4-hydroxy-trans-stilbene) showed clear positive responses in a concentration-dependent manner in all three tests. Both were equal to or stronger than resveratrol in genotoxicity. The 4′-hydroxy (OH) analogue had the simplest chemical structure and was the most genotoxic. The other analogues did not have a 4′-hydroxy group. These results suggested that a 4′-hydroxy group is essential to the genotoxicity of stilbenes. 相似文献

Two types of new Sepharose-bound pyridoxal 5′-phosphate, N-immobilized and 3-0-immobilized pyridoxal 5′-phosphate analogues, were prepared by reacting pyridoxal 5′-phosphate with a bromoacetyl derivative of Sepharose 4B in dimethylformamide (50% v/v) and in potassium phosphate buffer (pH 6.0) for approx. 70 h at room temperature in the dark, respectively. The properties of these immobilized pyridoxal 5′-phosphate derivatives including their catalytic activities in the non-enzymatic cleavage reaction of tryptophan were studied in comparison with those of the 6-immobilized pyridoxal 5′-phosphate analogue reported previously by the present authors. The usefulness of these pyridoxal 5′-phosphate analogues in the preparation of immobilized tryptophanase was demonstrated. 相似文献

2′,3′-Dideoxy-3′-aminonucleoside 5′-triphosphates have been shown to be inhibitors of replicative DNA synthesis in isolated nuclei of sea urchin embryo. These compounds inhibit the Okazaki fragment synthesis. The effect of 2′,3′-dideoxy-3′-aminothymidine 5′-triphosphate and arabinothymidine 5′-triphosphate is reversible when adding the corresponding substrate for DNA synthesis, 2′-deoxythymidine 5′-triphosphate. 相似文献

Guanosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cyclic GMP) was found in the accessory gland of reproductively mature male house crickets (Acheta domesticus (L.)) up to the exceptionally high level of 500 pmol/mg protein (190−4) mol/kg wet weight). The identity of cricket cyclic GMP was confirmed by enzymatic and spectral analysis. A survey of 10 closely related species of Orthoptera indicated that high levels of cyclic GMP in the accessory gland occur only in the subfamily Gryllinae, to which A. domesticus belongs. In these crickets GMP in the accessory gland increases together with protein content during two weeks after the final molt. Levels are not augmented by dissection, and are independent of the presence of sperm in the seminal vesicles and of the production of spermatophores by the gland. The function of cyclic GMP in the accessory gland is not yet understood. 相似文献

The effects of dibutyryl cyclic adenosine 3′ : 5′-monophosphate and ATP on isotope incorporation into phospholipids and the release of β-glucuronidase into the extracellular medium were studied in polymorphonuclear leukocytes from guinea pig peritoneal exudates. Exogenous dibutyryl cyclic adenosine 3′ : 5′-monophosphate (0.1–1.0 mM) reduced β-glucoronidase release induced by cytochalasin B in the absence of inert particles. It selectively inhibited 32Pi incorporation into phosphatidic acid and the phosphoinositides and the incorporation of myo-[2-3H]inositol into the phosphoinositides. Added ATP (0.1–1.0 mM), but not other nucleotides, was found to potentiate β-glucuronidase release provoked by cytochasin B, but it impaired the labeling of the phosphoinositides by myo-[2-3H]inositol. The mechanism of the inhibition of the isotope incorporation into these acidic phospholipids by the two nucleotides has not been defined. Dibutyryl cyclic adenosine 3′ : 5′-monophosphate at 2–4 mM concentration was not found to appreciably alter the incorporation of [γ-32P]ATP into phosphatidic acid, phosphatidylinositol, diphosphoinositide, and triphosphoinositide. 相似文献

Elevated levels of 3′5′ adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) stimulate a wide variety of cellular events including aggregation, differentiation, morphological expression, pigment migration, and secretion. The role of cyclic AMP in these events prompted our present study of embryonic chick dorsal root ganglia. Test substances were applied to cultures during the routine feeding procedure. Their development was quantitatively evaluated on the basis of explant size, length of glial-like outgrowth, distribution of growth, neurite number, length, diameter, and degree of arborization. These parameters were all shown to be independent of each other. The high variability of in vitro neurite development necessitated the use of over 100 cultures per treatment group. Cultures treated with 5′ AMP exhibited no significant differences from controls. Those treated with cyclic AMP, dibutyryl cyclic AMP, or Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) exhibited statistically significant increases in area of outgrowth, the number of neurites per culture, and in diameters, lengths, and degree of neurite arborization. The growth promoting activity of dibutyryl cyclic AMP and NGF were greater than those of cyclic AMP. Electron microscopic study shows neurites formed under the influence of cyclic AMP or its dibutyryl derivative to resemble those grown in NGF. These studies suggest the possibility that cyclic AMP stimulates neurite growth by mediating the process of microtubule (MT) assembly. They further prompt us to speculate that one way NGF enhances neurite development is by stimulating MT assembly via a “Second Messenger System”. 相似文献

The content of adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate in human mononuclear leukocytes was enhanced 3–5-times by venoms obtained from African toad (Bufo africanus), American toad (Bufo americanus), Colorado river toad (Bufo arenarum) and Marine toad (Bufo marinus) at 25 μg/ml for 5 min of incubation at 37°C. The maximum stimulation was observed after 1–5 min of incubation. The half-maximal stimulation was observed at 0.1 μg/ml venom obtained from Colorado river toad (Bufo arenarum). The increased content of adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate in the mononuclear leukocytes persisted without significant change for at least 30 min of incubation at 37°C. 相似文献

An analog of adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) was synthesized in which the C4′---C5′---O---Pα system is replaced by a trans C4′---CH=CH---Pα system. In the form of 1:1 complexes with Mg, this analog and its counterpart with a C4′---CH2---CH2---Pα system were linear competitive inhibitors, with respect to MgATP, of the MAT-II (normal tissue) and MAT-T (hepatoma tissue) forms of rat ATP:
-methionine-S-adenosyltransferase (MAT); Km(ATP)/Ki values ranged from 0.4 to 2.4. 2′-Deoxy-ATP was a weak substrate, Km(ATP)/Km = 0.035, of MAT-II and a weak competitive inhibitor, Km(ATP)/Ki = 0.07, of MAT-T. These findings, together with interactions of the MAT forms with other substrates and inhibitors, indicate that binding of ATP to these transferases is accompanied by little rotation about the C5′---O5′ bond, and that C4′ and Pα are in a trans-type relationship in enzyme-bound ATP. 相似文献

In order to prepare 3-aminopropyl glycosides of Neu5Ac-α-(2→6′)-lactosamine trisaccharide 1, and its N-glycolyl containing analogue Neu5Gc-α-(2→6′)-lactosamine 2, a series of lactosamine acceptors with two, three, and four free OH groups in the galactose residue was studied in glycosylations with a conventional sialyl donor phenyl [methyl 5-acetamido-4,7,8,9-tetra-O-acetyl-3,5-dideoxy-2-thio-
-glycero-α- and β-
-galacto-2-nonulopyranosid]onates (3) and a new donor phenyl [methyl 4,7,8,9-tetra-O-acetyl-5-(N-tert-butoxycarbonylacetamido)-3,5-dideoxy-2-thio-
-glycero-α- and β-
-galacto-2-nonulopyranosid]onates (4), respectively. The lactosamine 4′,6′-diol acceptor was found to be the most efficient in glycosylation with both 3 and 4, while imide-type donor 4 gave slightly higher yields with all acceptors, and isolation of the reaction products was more convenient. In the trisaccharides, obtained by glycosylation with donor 4, the 5-(N-tert-butoxycarbonylacetamido) moiety in the neuraminic acid could be efficiently transformed into the desired N-glycolyl fragment, indicating that such protected oligosaccharide derivatives are valuable precursors of sialo-oligosaccharides containing N-modified analogues of Neu5Ac. 相似文献
