A yeast-mycelium (Y-M) transition in Candida albicans was induced by exogenous yeast extract, adenosine, adenosine 5-monophosphate (AMP), adenosine 5-diphosphate (ADP), adenosine 35 cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) and its analogue N6, O2-dibutyryl adenosine 35-cyclic monophosphate (dbcAMP) in defined liquid medium at 25°C. Adenosine 5-triphosphate (ATP) was found to delay germ tube formation in yeast cells, whereas the cAMP phosphodiesterase inhibitors, theophylline and caffeine, induced a Y-M transition. Intracellular and extracellular cyclic AMP levels increased during the yeast-mycelium transition and maximum levels of intracellular cyclic AMP coincided with maximum germ tube formation. Of the many inducers and inhibitors of germ tube and mycelium formation in C. albicans tested, including incubation at 37°C or in the presence of 1.5mM CaCl2, the calmodulin inhibitor calmidazolium (R24571) added together with CaCl2 induced the highest intra- and extracellular cyclic AMP levels. These results confirm the involvement of cyclic AMP in the yeast-mycelium transition of C. albicans. 相似文献

The properties and the regulation of adenosine 5-phosphosulfate sulfotransferase extracted from cell suspension cultures ofNicotiana sylvestris was investigated. Optimal adenosine 5-phosphosulfate sulfotransferase activity was obtained from the cells by extraction with 0.1 M tris-HCl, pH8.0, containing 2 M MgSO4 and 10 mM dithioerythritol. The K
m
for adenosine 5-phosphosulfate in the sulfotransferase reaction was about 11 M. Adenosine 5-phosphosulfate in concentrations above 50 M were inhibitory. The extratable adenosine 5-phosphosulfate sulfotransferase activity decreased during cultivation with sulfate as the sole sulfur source, but after about 3 days it reached a constant level (50 to 100 nmol activated sulfate transferred h-1 mg-1 protein) which was maintained for at least 24 h. Addition of 0.5 mM cysteine to the culture medium decreased the extractable adenosine 5-phosphosulfate sulfotransferase activity and blocked growth completely. With 0.1 mM cysteine an enzyme level of about 10% of the initial value was reached within 6 to 12 h without significant inhibition of growth. The added cysteine was absorbed rapidly and after 24 h cysteine could no longer be detected in the medium. Before the cysteine was completely depleted, the activity of adenosine 5-phosphosulfate sulfotransferase started to increase, reaching ultimately a level which was comparable to the initial value.Abbreviations APS

Summary Adenosine 5-phosphoramidates form when solutions containing adenosine 5-polyphosphates pnA (n 3) or P1, P2-diadenosine 5-diphosphate and amines are allowed to dry out. Mg ions catalyze these reactions. We have studied systems containing ammonia, imidazole, glycine, ethylenediamine and histamine. The yields of adenosine 5-phosphoramidates range from 10–50 % based on the nucleotide. The prebiotic significance of the reactions is discussed.Abbreviations Im

The six binary montmorillonite clay-catalyzed reactions of the5-phosphorimidazolides of adenosine, cytidine, guanosine anduridine were performed and the eight dimers from each reactionwere separated and analyzed by HPLC. A 16–51-fold higher yieldof the 5-purine-pyrimidine dimers over that of the5-pyrimidine-purines was observed. The total yield of the5-purine-pyrimidine dimers was in the 50–70% range while thatof the 5-pyrimidine-purine dimers was 1.3–7.0%. Less sequenceselectivity was observed in the homodimers formed.Regioselectivity for the formation of 3, 5-phosphodiesterbonds over that found in the absence of clay was observed. The5-purine-pyrimidine, 5-pyrimidine-pyrimidine and5-purine-purine dimers had 3, 5-links in about half of theirphosphodiester bonds. The percent phosphodiester links in the5-pyrimidine-pyrimidine dimers was 18%, a value close to thatobserved in the absence of the montmorillonite catalyst. Themontmorillonite-catalyzed reaction of all four activatednucleotides was performed and the 24 products were separated andanalyzed. The trends observed in the binary reactions wereconfirmed and the results also showed that the relativereactivity of the activated monomers was A>G>C>U in theratio 8.2: 4.8: 1.3: 1 respectively. No 5-pyrimidine-purineswith a 5-U and pG3pU, pC3pAand pC3pG weredetected. These studies suggest that a limited population ofRNAs would have formed in catalyzed prebiotic reactions. 相似文献

Summary Three independent isolates ofChlamydomonas, selected for caffeine resistance, were found to arrest in G1 phase, as determined by quantitative fluorescence measurements of DNA, when grown at a non-permissive temperature. This cell cycle arrest correlated with lowered levels of cAMP and of adenylate cyclase activity. The arrested cells could be rescued by added cAMP but not AMP, hence the defect was not one of general purine metabolism. Back-crosses to wild type revealed that the phenotypes observed result from a combination of three separable mutations. It is clear that the mutations define functions that are more stringently required for cell division than for growth since the mutant strains are able to grow up to fifteen times normal size while blocked at the non-permissive temperature. The possible interaction of cAMP dependent events with division is discussed.Abbreviations AMP

The filamentous cyanophyteNostoc muscorum A grew aseriately in light in a mineral salts (sugar-free) culture medium supplemented with adenosine 3:5-cyclic-monophosphate or N6, O2-dibutyryl adenosine 3:5-cyclic-monophosphate (1 mM). The aseriate morphology thus formed in the light on the 10th day following inoculation was similar to that formed in the dark after 20–30 days growth in cAMP-free medium containing glucose or sucrose. Inoculum previously grown in sucrose- or glucose-containing medium displayed aseriate morphology with lesser proliferation of coccoid cells as compared to inoculum grown in the absence of glucose or sucrose. cGMP, ADP, AMP and inhibitors of phosphodiesterase (theophylline and caffeine) did not have any effect on the persistence of aseriate morphology. However they stimulated cell division at the aseriate stage and delayed the release of hormogonia.Abbreviations cAMP

The occurrence of adenosine 5-triphosphate-3-diphosphate-synthesizing activity was detected in five strains of actinomycetes; Streptomyces morookaensis, Streptomyces aspergilloides, Streptomyces hachijoensis, Actinomyces violascens and Streptoverticillium septatum, out of 825 strains of actinomycetes, bacteria, fungi and imperfecti. Purine nucleotide pyrophosphotransferase were extracellularly excreted associating with the cell growth, and were purified partially or to apparent homogeniety from the culture filtrate. The enzymes are a monomeric protein with a molecular weight of 18000–26000 and synthesize adenosine, guanosine and inosine 5-phosphate (mono, di or tri)-3-diphosphate such as pApp, ppApp, pppApp, pGpp, ppGpp, pppGpp and pppIpp by transferring a pyrophosphoryl group from the 5-position of ATP, dATP and pppApp to the 3-position of purine nucleotides in the presence of a divalent cation and in alkaline state.Abbreviations pppApp

In the course of characterization of glycolipid sulfotransferase from human renal cancer cells, the manner of inhibition of sulfotransferase activity with pyridoxal 5-phosphate was investigated. Incubation of a partially purified sulfotransferase preparation with pyridoxal 5-phosphate followed by reduction with NaBH4 resulted in an irreversible inactivation of the enzyme. When adenosine 3-phosphate 5-phosphosulfate was co-incubated with pyridoxal 5-phosphate, the enzyme was protected against this inactivation. Furthermore, pyridoxal 5-phosphate was found to behave as a competitive inhibitor with respect to adenosine 3-phosphate 5-phosphosulfate with aK
i value of 287 µm. These results suggest that pyridoxal 5-phosphate modified a lysine residue in the adenosine 3-phosphate 5-phosphosulfate-recognizing site of the sulfotransferase. 相似文献

Summary
Physarum polycephalum microplasmodia exposed to 1.6×10–5 M cytochalasin A evidenced intracellular cytoplasmic condensation, slow contraction, and eventual breaks at discrete surface areas, within one hour. Other cytochalasins tested (CB or CD) did not substitute for CA. CA effects on plasmodia were not abolished by immediate washing or media replacement. In nutrient medium, CA plus ATP (375 M) produced within minutes herniation (blebbing) and plasmodial disruption. The order of addition of reagents was important; ATP added simultaneously with or prior to CA stimulated the phenomenon, whereas initial addition of CA resulted in no such dynamic response. Several other nucleotides (e.g., AMP, cAMP) could substitute for ATP; however, such changes were not observed with 5-adenylylimidodiphosphate. Blebbing was not abolished in the presence of 2,4-dinitrophenol. In minimal medium, it was best stimulated by simultaneous addition of Ca++ and Mg++. Preincubation of CA with L-cysteine or with -mercaptoethanol negates its individual or nucleotide-combined effects. Yet, 10–5 M ethacrynic acid, a sulfhydryl-reactive liposoluble drug, in the presence of ATP does not mimic the blebbing response. These observed effects, which take place at or near the plasmodial surface, presumably reflect acceleration of normal contractile processes inPhysarum.

Summary [13C5]-2-Deoxy-d-ribose, synthesized from [13C6]-d-glucose (98% 13C), was coupled with thymine to give [1,2,3,4,5-13C5]-thymidine (T) in an 18% overall yield. The thymidine was converted to the 3-phosphoramidite derivative and was then incorporated into a dodecamer 5-d(CGCGAATTCGCG)-3 by solid-phase DNA synthesis. Preparation of 0.24 mole of the labeled dodecamer, which is sufficient for a single NMR sample, consumed only 25 mg of glucose. By virtue of the 13C labels, all of the 1H-1H vicinal coupling constants in the sugar moieties were accurately determined by HCCH-E.COSY. 相似文献

Summary Olfactory receptor neurons enzymatically dissociated from channel catfish olfactory epithelium were depolarized transiently following dialysis of IP3 or cAMP (added to the patch pipette) into the cytoplasm. Voltage and current responses to IP3 were blocked by ruthenium red, a blocker of an IP3-gated Ca2+-release channel in sarcoplasmic reticulum. In contrast, the responses to cAMP were not blocked by extracellularly applied ruthenium red, nor by l-cis-diltiazem or amiloride and two of its derivatives. The current elicited by cytoplasmic IP3 in neurons under voltage clamp displayed a voltage dependence different from that of the cAMP response which showed marked outward rectification. A sustained depolarization was caused by increased cytoplasmic IP3 or cAMP when the buffering capacity for Ca2+ of the pipette solution was increased, when extracellular Ca2+ was removed or after addition of 20–200 nm charibdotoxin to the bathing solution, indicating that the repolarization was caused by an increase in [Ca

] that opened Ca2+-activated K+ channels. The results suggest that different conductances modulated by either IP3 or cAMP are involved in mediating olfactory transduction in catfish olfactory receptor neurons and that Ca2+-activated K+ channels contribute to the termination of the IP3 and cAMP responses.Abbreviations ATP

Summary To get more insight in the function of 5-nucleotidase catabolic and anabholic processes were investigated in which 5-nucleotides are involved. The catabolism of adenosine-5-monophosphate was studied by investigating the reaction products obtained after incubation of homogenates of several organs of rat and mouse with adenosine-5-monophosphate and with adenosine. Two experimental tumours of the mouse were investigated in the same way. It was found that in tissues containing a high activity of 5-nucleotidase other enzymes involved in the catabolism of 5-nucleotides, such as nucleosidase, adenosine deaminase and adenosine-5-monophosphate deaminase could also be demonstrated.The anabolic processes in which 5-nucleotides are involved had been studied by investigating the incorporation of tritium-labeled thymidine in several tissues of the mouse. It appeared that in cells showing a high 5-nucleotidase activity no incorporation of radioactive thymidine could be found, while in cells showing incorporation of thymidine enzyme activity could not be demonstrated.A discussion is given about the possible role of 5-nucleotidase in the control of nucleic acid biosynthesis and in the catabolism of nucleic acids.Abbreviations used DNA

The cleavage of adenosine-5-monophosphate (5-AMP) and guanosine-5-monophosphate (5-GMP) by Ce4+ and lanthanide complex of 2-carboxyethylgermanium sesquioxide (Ge-132) in acidic and near neutral conditions was investigated by NMR , HPLC and measuring the liberated inorganic phosphate at 37°C and 50°C. The results showed that 5-GMP and 5-AMP was converted to guanine (G), 5-monophosphate (depurination of 5-GMP), ribose (depurination and dephosphorylation of 5-GMP), phosphate and adenine (A), 5-monophosphate (depurination of 5-AMP), ribose (depurination and dephosphorylation of 5-AMP), phosphate respectively by Ce4+. In presence of lanthanide complexes, 5-GMP and 5-AMP were converted to guanosine (Guo) and phosphate and adenosine (Ado) and phosphate respectively. The mechanism of cleaving 5-GMP and 5-AMP is hydrolytic scission 相似文献

Tracheary-element (TE) differentiation in suspension-cultured mesophyll cells of Zinnia elegans L. was completely inhibited by caffeine and theophylline only when these methylxanthines were applied at least 8 h prior to the appearance of secondary cell-wall thickenings. In contrast, the calcium-channel blocker nifedipine completely inhibited TE differentiation when applied only 2–3 h prior to the onset of secondary cell-wall deposition. This indicates the involvement of a methylxanthine-inhibitable event in TE differentiation that is distinguishable from an event dependent on influx of extracellular calcium. The correlation between the time of appearance of chlorotetracycline fluorescence (an indicator of sequestered Ca2+) and loss of methylxanthine effectiveness indicates that inhibition by methylxanthines may result from release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. Methylxanthines with high potencies against adenosine 3 5-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) phosphodiesterase and adenosine receptors were less effective inhibitors of TE differentiation, indicating that inhibition of differentiation by methylxanthines is independent of cAMP metabolism. The role of cAMP in transduction of the cytokinin signal, which was proposed previously on the basis of stimulation of TE differentiation by theophylline, was investigated using the non-hydrolyzable analog 8-bromo-cAMP. Although 8-bromo-cAMP stimulated differentiation in the absence of inductive concentrations of cytokinin, the non-cyclic analog 8-bromo-AMP was even more effective, indicating that 8-bromo-cAMP behaves as a cytokinin analog, rather than a second messenger, in stimulating TE differentiation.Abbreviations 8-bromo-AMP

In crown-gall tumor tissue obtained from leaves of Bryophyllum daigremontianum an adenosine 3:5-cyclic phosphate (3:5-cyclic-AMP) degrading activity increases up to 2.5 fold until the fifth day after inoculation with Agrobacterium tumefaciens, declining to the value of the control in the solid tumor. Theophylline up to 1 mmol l–1 given to wounded leaves of Bryophyllum daigremontianum has no effect on the number of tumors. The effect of higher concentrations given over extended periods can be explained otherwise. Therefore it seems likely that the 3:5-cyclic-AMP phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.17) has no effect on transformation and growth of crown-gall tumors in Bryophyllum daigremontianum. 相似文献

Summary The FhuA protein in the outer membrane of Escherichia coli serves as a multifunctional receptor for the phages T5, T1, 80, for colicin M, for ferrichrome (Fe3+-siderophore) and for the structurally related antibiotic, albomycin. To determine structural domains required for these receptor functions and for export, a fusion protein between FhuA and Iut (receptor for Fe3+-aerobactin and cloacin DF13) was constructed. In the FhuA-Iut hybrid protein, 24 amino acids of FhuA were replaced by 19 amino acids, 18 of which were from Iut. The number of plaque forming units of phage T5 and T1 on cells expressing FhuA-Iut was nearly as high as on cells expressing plasmid-encoded wild-type FhuA. However, 107-fold higher concentrations of phage 80 and 103 times more colicin M were required to obtain a zone of growth inhibition. Truncated FhuA proteins in which the last 24 amino acids at the carboxy-terminus were replaced by 16 (FhuA2) or 3 (FhuAT) amino acids could hardly be detected on polyacrylamide electrophoretograms of outer membrane proteins, due to proteolytic degradation. Sensitivity of cells expressing FhuA2 to phage T5 and T1 was reduced by several orders of magnitude and sensitivity to phage 80 and colicin M was totally abolished. In contrast, cells expressing FhuAT were nearly as sensitive to phage T5, T1, and 80 and to colicin M as cells containing FhuA-Iut. None of the constructs could grow on ferrichrome as sole iron source and none was sensitive to albomycin. Ferrichrome did not inhibit binding of T5 to TonB– cells expressing FhuA-Iut (as it did in FhuA+ cells) due to the lack of ferrichrome binding. It is concluded that very small deletions (relative to the size of FhuA with 714 amino acids) at the C-terminal end render FhuA susceptible to proteolytic cleavage. The C-terminal alterations affect sensitivity to FhuA-specific agents very differently. Apparently, the C-terminus is a very important part of FhuA regarding stability and activity. Expression of active FhuA and partially inactive FhuA derivatives in the same cell revealed no negative complementation, suggesting a FhuA monomer as functional unit. 相似文献

Structural analogues of the NADP+ were studied as potential coenzymes and inhibitors for NADP+ dependent malic enzyme from Zea mays L. leaves. Results showed that 1, N6-etheno-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate ( NADP+), 3-acetylpyridine-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (APADP+), nicotinamide-hypoxanthine dinucleotide phosphate (NHDP+) and -nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 2: 3-cyclic monophosphate (23NADPc+) act as alternate coenzymes for the enzyme and that there is little variation in the values of the Michaelis constants and only a threefold variation in Vmax for the five nucleotides. On the other hand, thionicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (SNADP+), 3-aminopyridine-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (AADP+), adenosine 2-monophosphate (2AMP) and adenosine 2: 3-cyclic monophosphate (23AMPc) were competitive inhibitors with respect to NADP+, while -nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 3-phosphate (3NADP+), NAD+, adenosine 3-monophosphate (3AMP), adenosine 2: 5-cyclic monophosphate (25AMPc), 5AMP, 5ADP, 5ATP and adenosine act as non-competitive inhibitors. These results, together with results of semiempirical self-consistent field-molecular orbitals calculations, suggest that the 2-phosphate group is crucial for the nucleotide binding to the enzyme, whereas the charge density on the C4 atom of the pyridine ring is the major factor that governs the coenzyme activity.Abbreviations NADP+

Specific DNA-labelling by exogenous thymidine-5''-monophosphate in Saccharomyces cerevisiae 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Summary Strain 211-1aM of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was found to specifically incorporate into its nuclear and mitochondrial DNA exogenous 5-dTMP when it is incubated in a synthetic medium N rich in inorganic phosphate. 3-digestions of DNA from cells labelled with 32P-5-dTMP revealed that the 5-dTMP molecules pass through cell walls and membranes to the sites of DNA synthesis without being broken down. It is possible in medium N to generate DNA which almost totally derives its thymine-contents from external sources when rather high concentrations of 5-dTMP (approx. 100 g/ml) are offered. 相似文献

Summary Mutants were isolated from Microbacterium sp. no. 205 (ATCC 21376) producing 13–30mm cyclic adenosine 3,5-monophosphate (cAMP) by salvage biosynthesis, through sequential improvements of the bacterium for the purpose of improving cAMP production. The mutants produced 50–75 mm cAMP on 100 mm inosine 5-monophosphate as a precursor. Mutants resistant to the inhibition of growth by cAMP at high concentrations were isolated; the resistance was one of four characteristics effective for improved production of cAMP. 相似文献
