The physiological content of Drosophila melanogaster tissues in cyclic AMP has been determined and its variations studied during postembryonic development and in the adults. Marked variations were observed, especially during metamorphosis where the ratio between the lowest and highest values (0·35 to 17·25 pmoles/mg protein) was . In larvae the variations of cyclic AMP level were not clearly related to the larval ecdyses, but the steps of metamorphosis, i.e. formation of the puparium, larval-pupal apolysis, and pupal-adult apolysis, were accompanied with rapid and drastic rises of cyclic AMP, up to the highest value mentioned. We therefore deduce that cyclic AMP is involved in the metamorphosis of D. melanogaster as a chemical signal. In adults, the cyclic AMP level was remarkably constant and was around 7 pmoles/mg protein. 相似文献

Requirement of Cyclic Adenosine 3′,5′-Monophosphate for the Thermosensitive Effects of Rts1 in a Cyclic Adenosine 3′,5′-Monophosphate-Less Mutant of Escherichia coli 下载免费PDF全文
Previous publications showed that a covalently closed circular (CCC) Rts1 plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that confers kanamycin resistance upon the host bacteria inhibits host growth at 42 degrees C but not at 32 degrees C. At 42 degrees C, the CCC Rts1 DNA is not formed, and cells without plasmids emerge. To investigate the possible role of cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) in the action of Rts1 on host bacteria, Rts1 was placed in an Escherichia coli mutant (CA7902) that lacks adenylate cyclase or in E. coli PP47 (a mutant lacking cAMP receptor protein). Rts1 did not exert the thermosensitive effect on these cells, and CCC Rts1 DNA was formed even at 42 degrees C. Upon addition of cAMP to E. coli CA7902(Rts1), cell growth and formation of CCC Rts1 DNA were inhibited at 42 degrees C. The addition of cAMP to E. coli PP47(Rts1) did not cause inhibitory effects on either cell growth or CCC Rts1 DNA formation at 42 degrees C. The inhibitory effect of cAMP on E. coli CA7902(Rts1) is specific to this cyclic nucleotide, and other cyclic nucleotides such as cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate did not have the effect. For this inhibitory effect, cells have to be preincubated with cAMP; the presence of cAMP at the time of CCC Rts1 DNA formation is not enough for the inhibitory effect. If the cells are preincubated with cAMP, one can remove cAMP during the [(3)H]thymidine pulse and still observe its inhibitory effect on the formation of CCC Rts1 DNA. The presence of chloramphenicol during this preincubation period abolished the inhibitory effect of cAMP. These observations suggest that cAMP is necessary to induce synthesis of a protein that inhibits CCC Rts1 DNA formation and cell growth at 42 degrees C. 相似文献

The effect of dopamine on the cyclic AMP concentration in the rat spleen lymphocytes has been investigated . It has been shown that dopamine in concentration above 10?6M induces a significant increase of cyclic AMP level. The maximal stimulatory effect was observed after 10 minutes of the lymphocytes incubation with dopamine. These data suggest that the dopamine receptor in lymphocyte belongs to D-1 category. 相似文献

The synthesis of β-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23: β-D-galactoside galactohydrolase) in is repressed as a result of infection with single-stranded DNA phage ØX174. An mutant in ØX174 cistron A, which codes for two proteins, does not inhibit the enzyme synthesis while mutants in all other genes do cause repression. A mutant near the amino-terminal end of cistron A, which produces the small 35,000 molecular weight cistron A polypeptide, also inhibits the synthesis of β-galactosidase. Inhibition is also observed in an mutant which does not support the replication of replicative-form DNA. Exogenous nucleotide bases and cyclic 3′,5′-adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) do not have any effect on the degree of repression. 相似文献

Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase of Neurospora crassa 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
was surveyed for cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase activity. Two peaks (I and II) of protein kinase activity were demonstrated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography of wild type extracts. Peak I was stimulated by cyclic AMP, eluted below 60 mM NaCl and had high activity using histone H2B as substrate. Peak II eluted at 200–250 mM NaCl; its activity was not cyclic AMP stimulated and was highest with dephosphorylated casein as a substrate. Cyclic AMP binding to a protein associated with the protein kinase is specifically inhibited by certain cyclic AMP analogs. 相似文献

A cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was found to appear during the time course of development of . No cyclic AMP dependency was observed at any stage of development in crude 110,000 X G soluble extracts. After partial purification, however, extracts from post-aggregation stages contained enzyme that was activated up to 6-fold by cyclic AMP, whereas protein kinase from earlier stages was not affected by cyclic AMP. Likewise, cyclic AMP binding activity increased from the aggregation to the slug stage of development. Approximately one-half of the total cyclic AMP binding activity co-purified with the cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase. The enzyme from showed similarities to mammalian protein kinases with respect to its kinetic properties but differed in its behavior on ion-exchange chromatography. 相似文献

Glucagon increased the level of 5-phosphoribosyl 1-pyrophosphate (Rib) in isolated rat hepatocytes; a relatively high concentration of cyclic AMP could replace glucagon. In the presence of glucagon, the rate of incorporation of respective radioactive precursors into purine, pyrimidine, and oxidized pyridine nucleotides was accelerated, indicating that glucagon stimulates the synthesis of Rib. Addition of 10?6 M colchicine, vinblastin, or podophyllotoxin abolished the glucagon or cyclic AMP-induced increase in the Rib level. Colchicine did not affect accumulation of cyclic AMP induced by glucagon. These results suggest the involvement of tubulin or microtubules in the signal transfer from cyclic AMP to stimulated synthesis of Rib. 相似文献

Homogenates of adult (blood flukes), isolated from the porto-mesenteric veins of infected mice, contain substantial activities of adenylyl cyclase, cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase, and a cyclic AMP stimulated protein kinase. The adenylyl cyclase, which is largely sedimentable at 10,000xg, is stimulated 20-fold by 10mM sodium fluoride and 1.4 to 2-fold by serotonin, glucagon, prostaglandins E1, E2 or B1. The phosphodiesterase, which is largely sedimentable at 10,000xg, is inhibited by both aminophylline and papaverine but is not influenced by 10mM sodium fluoride. The protein kinase, which is present in the 10,000xg supernatant is stimulated 4 to 8-fold by either cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP. There is a preference for cyclic AMP () over cyclic GMP (). If intact worms are incubated in a glucose free medium there is a mobilization of glycogen stores which is preceded by a rise in cyclic AMP concentration. In a medium with 5mM glucose there is neither a rise in cyclic AMP nor mobilization of glycogen. 相似文献

Some and studies suggest that adesosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP) may be one of the important factors in determining the radiosensitivity of certain mammalian cells; however, the role of guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic GMP) in radiosensitivity of mammalian cells is completely unknown. Recent data also suggest that the mechanism of radiation protection afforded by moderate hypoxia and SH-containing compounds may involve an alteration in the intracellular level of cyclic AMP. At least one study shows that cyclic AMP protects hair follicles and gut epithelial cells against radiation damage; however, it does not protect lymphosarcoma and breast carcinoma in mice. If a similar phenomenon is found in humans, an elevation of the intracellular level of cyclic AMP during radiation exposure may improve the effectiveness of radiation therapy in those cases where the radiation damage of normal tissue becomes the limiting factor for a continuation of the therapy program. More and studies on normal and cancer cells are needed to substantiate the role of cyclic nucleotides in radiosensitivity. 相似文献

Treatment of Chinese hamster ovary cells with dibutyryl cyclic AMP, which results in a net increase of the intracellular cyclic AMP level, converts the epithelial-like cells to a fibroblast-like shape. Protein kinase activity in cells treated with 1 mM dibutyryl cyclic AMP show a 3-fold increase in Vmax but no appreciable changes in the apparent Km for ATP. When cells are treated with dibutyryl cyclic AMP, there is a time-dependent conversion of cyclic AMP-stimulable protein kinase to cyclic AMP-independent catalytic subunits, as demonstrated by Sephadex G-100 gel filtration. These experiments demonstrate the activation of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase . This activation may lead to phosphorylation of certain cellular constituent(s) and thus may be involved in the observed morphological transformation. 相似文献

Cyclic AMP levels in , adults can be altered genetically by changing the number of doses of chromomere 3D4 contained in the genome, a chromomere previously shown to control the activity of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase in a dose-dependent manner. Flies completely deficient for chromomere 3D4 have 2–7 times the cyclic AMP level of flies with one or two doses of chromomere 3D4. Cyclic AMP levels are significantly depressed in flies carrying three doses of 3D4. Cyclic GMP levels are not influenced in a dose-dependent manner by chromomere 3D4. The effect on cyclic AMP levels may provide a useful system for investigating physiological and developmental consequences of aberrant cyclic AMP levels in the intact organism. 相似文献

Cyclic GMP and cyclic AMP have distinct and opposite effects upon the action of ecdysterone in diapausing pupae of the Bertha armyworm, . Cyclic GMP enhanced the effectiveness of suboptimal doses of ecdysterone in breaking diapause; the amount of cyclic GMP required to lower the ED50 of ecdysterone by half was 80 μg/g. Dibutyryl cyclic GMP had no apparent effect on the action of ecdysterone over a wide dose range (0.07 – 70 μg/g). On the other hand, cyclic AMP and dibutyryl cyclic AMP effectively blocked the diapause-breaking action of ecdysterone when administered simultaneously with the steroid hormone. The amount of cyclic AMP required to reduce the incidence of diapause termination from 100% to 50% was 60 μg/g; for dibutyryl cyclic AMP the amount required was only 14 μg/g. No cyclic nucleotide tested in the study could by itself break the pupal diapause of . The concept that cyclic GMP and cyclic AMP provide at least different if not opposing regulatory influences in certain insect systems is discussed briefly in the light of these observations. 相似文献

The biochemical properties of several alkyl phosphotriesters of cyclic AMP were studied with respect to their interactions with beef heart protein kinase and cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase. Ethyl and propyl triesters did not enhance the phosphorylation of histone by protein kinase and methyl, ethyl, propyl and butyl triesters were poor competitors for the cyclic AMP binding site of the enzyme. However, these alkyl phosphotriesters were effective inhibitors of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase with the K's arrayed in the following order: methyl > ethyl > propyl > butyl > cetyl triester. Metabolic studies with mice indicated that intraperitoneal injection of low doses of propyl triester for one week significantly increased cyclic AMP concentration. 相似文献

Abnormally high rate of cyclic AMP excretion from an Escherichia coli mutant deficient in cyclic AMP receptor protein 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16

By labeling adenosine 3′, 5′-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP) with [32P] phosphate and chromatographing it on a thin-layer alumina plate, we have determined the extra- and intracellular amounts of cyclic AMP in an CRP? mutant (deficient in a cyclic AMP receptor protein) and its isogenic CRP+ cell. The CRP? cell was found to excrete cyclic AMP at an abnormally high rate as compared to the CRP+ cell when growing on glucose or glycerol, which can be correlated with the abnormally high intracellular levels of cyclic AMP in the CRP? cell. 相似文献

Isolated adrenal cortex cells: ACTH agonists, partial agonists, antagonists; cyclic AMP and corticosterone production 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Isolated adrenal cortex cells respond to the addition of ACTH1–39 or analogs with increased production of cyclic AMP and corticosterone. It is estimated that cyclic AMP production need proceed at less than 20% of maximum to induce maximum corticosterone production. ACTH1–24, [Lys17, Lys18]ACTH1–8 amide, and ACTH1–16 amide induce a maximum rate of cyclic AMP and of corticosterone production equal to those of ACTH1–39. The relative potencies as determined by cyclic AMP and by corticosterone production are in excellent agreement. The analog, ACTH5–24, induces maximum cyclic AMP production equal to 45% of that of the natural hormone, but as predicted, induces maximum corticosterone production equal to that of ACTH1–39. The derivative, [Trp(Nps)9]ACTH1–39 induces 77% of maximum corticosterone production and less than 1% of maximum cyclic AMP production. The fragment ACTH11–24 is a competitive antagonist of ACTH1–39 for both cyclic AMP and corticosterone production. The observations on agonists, a partial agonist and a competitive antagonist are in harmony with the “second messenger” role assigned to cyclic AMP. A provisional model, based on the fit of the experimental observations to a set of equations, provides expressions of “intrinsic activity,” “receptor reserve”, “sensitivity”, and “amplification” in terms of maximum cyclic AMP production, concentration of ACTH which induces maximum cyclic AMP production and concentration of cyclic AMP which induces maximum corticosterone production. 相似文献

The effect of ethanol on histamine release from lungs of sensitized guinea pigs was studied in conjunction with measurements of tissue concentrations of cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP. Addition of antigen elicited a rapid increase in cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP and stimulated release of histamine. Ethanol (2%) inhibited antigen-induced release of histamine over 95% and completely inhibited the increase in both cyclic nucleotides. The activity of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was only slightly affected by ethanol.Metiamide blocked the ovalbumin stimulated increase in cyclic AMP but not cyclic GMP. Pyrilamine did not prevent the rise in either cyclic nucleotide. This suggests that the antigen-induced rise in cyclic AMP is an indirect result of histamine released from the tissue. The inability of H1 and H2 receptor antagonists to affect antigen-induced elevation of cyclic GMP in sensitized lung fragments suggests that an elevation in cyclic GMP might be either a primary event in the mediator release sequence or secondary to the release of a mediator other than histamine. The ability of ethanol to inhibit mediator release might be due to its capacity to attenuate the antigen-induced elevation of cyclic GMP in sensitized lung. 相似文献

The addition of cyclic AMP to the shaking medium of cells disaggregated from pseudoplasmodia of suppressed the accumulation of cell-bound phosphodiesterase which normally occurs (1) after disaggregation. The suppression was not secondarily brought about by its possible inhibitory effect of cyclic AMP on protein synthesis or by its stimulating effect on the release of the enzyme into the medium. The effect was reversible and specific to cyclic AMP. On the other hand, the inhibitory effect of cyclic AMP on the disaggregation-induced inactivation of UDP-galactose transferase was not apparent in the initial period, but thereafter it slowed down the decrease in the enzyme activity. These results indicate that exogenous cyclic AMP mimics at least in part the regulatory effects of cell-to-cell contact on certain enzymes. 相似文献

Female, ovariectomized rats were treated with estradiol and then, after various time periods, given an intravenous injection of isoproterenol or epinephrine. 30 seconds later uteri were frozen and assayed for cyclic AMP and glycogen phosphorylase. The cyclic AMP response to catecholamines was significantly depressed as early as 30 minutes after estrogen and at 6, 12 and 24 hours was 50% of that in non-estrogen-treated controls. Catecholamine-induced glycogen phosphorylase activation was unchanged until 24 hours after estrogen when it was significantly increased over controls. At 48 hours of estrogen both the cyclic AMP and phosphorylase responses to catecholamines were greater than controls. Estrogen regulates uterine β-adrenergic sensitivity but the time courses of estrogen effects on the cyclic AMP and glycogen phosphorylase response changes are different. Catecholamine-induced uterine cyclic AMP formation is biphasic: suppression during the first 24 hours of estrogen followed by recovery and finally augmentation by 48 hours. Catecholamine-induced glycogen phosphorylase activation shows only augmentation after 24–48 hours of estrogen. It is concluded that estrogen has independent effects on the β-adrenergic-glycogen phosphorylase activation pathway at two different points; one prior to cyclic AMP formation and another after cyclic AMP formation. 相似文献

The stimulation of dopa decarboxylase activity by ecdysone and its enhancement by cyclic AMP in adult mosquitoes 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Adult mosquitoes exhibit a low level of dopa decarboxylase activity. When non-blood fed females are injected with the molting hormone β-ecdysone a considerable increase in the level of enzymatic activity is observable. This β-ecdysone mediated stimulation is significantly enhanced when the hormone and dibutyryl cyclic AMP are injected simultaneously. No significant increase in dopa decarboxylase activity is detectable when dibutyryl cyclic AMP is injected alone. 相似文献
