The addition of 5',5',5'-trifluoroleucine (fluoroleucine) to leucine auxotrophs of Salmonella typhimurium permitted protein but not ribonucleic acid (RNA) synthesis to continue after leucine depletion. The uncoupling of the formation of these macromolecules by fluoroleucine was apparent if RNA and protein synthesis was measured either by the uptake of radioactive precursors or by direct chemical determinations. The analogue did not appear to be an inhibitor of RNA formation, since it was as effective as leucine in permitting RNA synthesis in a leucine auxotroph upon the addition of small amounts of chloramphenicol. In contrast to these data, fluoroleucine allowed continued protein and RNA formation in a leucine auxotroph of Escherichia coli strain W. In addition, contrary to the results obtained with S. typhimurium, the analogue replaced leucine for repression of the leucine bio-synthetic enzymes as well as the isoleucine-valine enzymes. We propose that these ambivalent effects of fluoroleucine on repression and RNA and protein synthesis in the two strains are due to differences in the ability of the analogue to attach to the various species of leucine transfer RNA. 相似文献

Oligoribonuclease, a 3′-to-5′ exoribonuclease specific for small oligoribonucleotides, was purified to homogeneity from extracts of Escherichia coli. The purified protein is an α2 dimer of 40 kDa. NH2-terminal sequence analysis of the protein identified the gene encoding oligoribonuclease as yjeR (o204a), a previously reported open reading frame located at 94 min on the E. coli chromosome. However, as a consequence of the sequence information, the translation start site of this open reading frame has been revised. Cloning of yjeR led to overexpression of oligoribonuclease activity, and interruption of the cloned gene with a kanamycin resistance cassette eliminated the overexpression. On the basis of these data, we propose that yjeR be renamed orn. Orthologs of oligoribonuclease are present in a wide range of organisms, extending up to humans. 相似文献

A new procedure has been developed for the synthesis of 3′-amino-3′-deoxyribonucleosides of adenine, cytosine and uracil by condensing the trimethylsilylated bases with peracylated 3-azido-3-deoxyribose derivative. The azido group could subsequently be reduced to amino. The 5′-phosphates of these nucleosides have been prepared and the analogues have been tested for their ability to stimulate the ribosome-catalyzed reaction of 3′(2′)-O-(N-formylmethionyl)adenosine 5′-phosphate with phenylalanyl-tRNA. 相似文献

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

Light-directed synthesis of high-density microarrays is currently performed in the 3′→5′ direction due to constraints in existing synthesis chemistry. This results in the probes being unavailable for many common types of enzymatic modification. Arrays that are synthesized in the 5′→3′ direction could be utilized to perform parallel genotyping and resequencing directly on the array surface, dramatically increasing the throughput and reducing the cost relative to existing techniques. In this report we demonstrate the use of photoprotected phosphoramidite monomers for light-directed array synthesis in the 5′→3′ direction, using maskless array synthesis technology. These arrays have a dynamic range of >2.5 orders of magnitude, sensitivity below 1 pM and a coefficient of variance of <10% across the array surface. Arrays containing >150 000 probe sequences were hybridized to labeled mouse cRNA producing highly concordant data (average R2 = 0.998). We have also shown that the 3′ ends of array probes are available for sequence-specific primer extension and ligation reactions. 相似文献

The concentration of cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (c-AMP) in Escherichia coli growing on different sources of carbon was studied. Cultures utilizing a source of carbon that supported growth relatively poorly had consistently higher concentrations of c-AMP than did cultures utilizing sugars that supported rapid growth. This relationship was also observed in strains defective in c-AMP phosphodiesterase and simultaneously resistant to catabolite repression; in such strains the c-AMP concentration was slightly higher for several sources of carbon tested. Cultures continued to synthesize c-AMP and secreted it into the medium, under conditions that brought about an inhibition of the intracellular accumulation of the cyclic nucleotide. Transient repression of the synthesis of beta-galactosidase was not associated with an abrupt decrease in the cellular concentration of c-AMP. 相似文献

Data are presented demonstrating that the presence in vivo of adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (3',5'-AMP) causes a rapid depletion of glycogen storage material in the cellular slime mold. The effect of adenosine 5'-monophosphate (5'-AMP) is twofold, stimulating both glycogen degradation and synthesis. In pseudoplasmodia, cell-free extracts appear to contain at least two species of glycogen phosphorylase, one of which is severely inhibited by glucose-1-phosphate and another which is only partially inhibited by this hexose-phosphate. In some cases, 5'-AMP partially overcomes the inhibition by glucose-1-phosphate. Data presented here also indicate the existence of two forms of glycogen synthetase, the total activity of which does not change during 10 hr of differentiation from aggregation to culmination. During this period there is a quantitative conversion of glucose-6-phosphate-independent enzyme activity to glucose-6-phosphate-dependent activity. It is suggested that one effect of 3',5'-AMP is closely related to enzymatic processes involved in the rapid conversion of glycogen to cell wall material and other end products accumulating during sorocarp construction. 相似文献

Control of Isoleucine, Valine, and Leucine Biosynthesis VI. Effect of 5′,5′,5′-Trifluoroleucine on Repression in Salmonella typhimurium 总被引:4,自引:3,他引:1

The leucine analogue 5',5',5',-trifluoroleucine (fluoroleucine) replaced leucine for repression of the isoleucine-valine biosynthetic enzymes in Salmonella typhimurium. In contrast, the analogue had no effect on derepression of the leucine biosynthetic enzymes in leucine auxotrophs grown on limiting amounts of leucine. The effect of fluoroleucine on repression appeared to be specific for leucine since derepression of the isoleucine-valine enzymes due to an isoleucine or valine limitation was not affected by the analogue. The prevention of derepression by fluoroleucine was probably due to repression and not to the formation of false proteins, since the analogue had no effect on the derepression of a number of enzymes unrelated to the isoleucine-valine pathway. Fluoroleucine was able to attach to leucine transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) as evidenced by the ability of the analogue to protect about 70% of leucine tRNA from oxidation by periodate. We propose that the differential effects of fluoroleucine on repression are due to differences in the ability of the analogue to bind to the various species of leucine tRNA. 相似文献

Yeastlike cells of Mucor racemosus grown under 100% CO(2) underwent morphogenesis to hyphae after exposure to air. The addition of dibutyryl cyclic adenosine monophosphate (dbcAMP) to yeastlike cultures inhibited this morphogenesis in media containing 2% glucose. The maintenance of uniformly spherical, budding cells required 1 mM dbcAMP in a defined medium containing Casamino Acids, and 3 mM dbcAMP in a medium containing yeast extract and peptone. At these concentrations, dbcAMP also induced yeastlike development in young aerobic hyphae grown in media containing 2% glucose. Removal of dbcAMP resulted in hyphal development. The endogenous cyclic AMP (cAMP) content of yeastlike cultures was measured after a shift from CO(2) to air. A fourfold decrease in intracellular cAMP preceded the appearance of hyphal germ tubes. These results indicate that cAMP plays a role in the control of morphogenesis in Mucor racemosus. 相似文献

Some of the most efficacious antiviral therapeutics are ribonucleos(t)ide analogs. The presence of a 3′-to-5′ proofreading exoribonuclease (ExoN) in coronaviruses diminishes the potency of many ribonucleotide analogs. The ability to interfere with ExoN activity will create new possibilities for control of SARS-CoV-2 infection. ExoN is formed by a 1:1 complex of nsp14 and nsp10 proteins. We have purified and characterized ExoN using a robust, quantitative system that reveals determinants of specificity and efficiency of hydrolysis. Double-stranded RNA is preferred over single-stranded RNA. Nucleotide excision is distributive, with only one or two nucleotides hydrolyzed in a single binding event. The composition of the terminal basepair modulates excision. A stalled SARS-CoV-2 replicase in complex with either correctly or incorrectly terminated products prevents excision, suggesting that a mispaired end is insufficient to displace the replicase. Finally, we have discovered several modifications to the 3′-RNA terminus that interfere with or block ExoN-catalyzed excision. While a 3′-OH facilitates hydrolysis of a nucleotide with a normal ribose configuration, this substituent is not required for a nucleotide with a planar ribose configuration such as that present in the antiviral nucleotide produced by viperin. Design of ExoN-resistant, antiviral ribonucleotides should be feasible. 相似文献

The rep gene of adeno-associated virus type 2 encodes four overlapping proteins from two separate promoters, termed P5 and P19. The P5-promoted Rep proteins, Rep78 and Rep68, are essential for viral DNA replication, and a wealth of data concerning the biochemical activities of these proteins has been reported. In contrast, data concerning the biochemical functions of the P19-promoted Rep proteins, Rep52 and Rep40, are lacking. Here, we describe enzymatic activities associated with a bacterially expressed maltose-binding protein (MBP)-Rep52 fusion protein. Purified MBP-Rep52 possesses 3′-to-5′ DNA helicase activity that is strictly dependent upon the presence of nucleoside triphosphate and divalent cation cofactors. In addition, MBP-Rep52 demonstrates a constitutive ATPase activity that is active in the absence of DNA effector molecules. An MBP-Rep52 chimera bearing a lysine-to-histidine substitution at position 116 (K116H) within a consensus helicase- and ATPase-associated motif (motif I or Walker A site) was deficient for both DNA helicase and ATPase activities. In contrast to a Rep78 A-site mutant protein bearing a corresponding amino acid substitution at position 340 (K340H), the MBP-Rep52 A-site mutant protein failed to exhibit a trans-dominant negative effect when it was mixed with wild-type MBP-Rep52 or MBP-Rep78 in vitro. This lack of trans dominance, coupled with the results of coimmunoprecipitation and gel filtration chromatography experiments reported here, suggests that the ability of Rep52 to engage in multimeric interactions may differ from that of Rep78 or -68. 相似文献

The dimorphic fungus Mucor racemosus was found to contain the cyclic nucleotide guanosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cGMP). Approximately equivalent amounts of the compound were found in ungerminated spores, yeastlike cells, and mycelia. Germinating spores contained severalfold higher amounts of cGMP than the other cell forms. cGMP levels did not change significantly during the morphogenetic conversion of yeast to mycelia. Added exogenous cGMP or the dibutyryl derivative did not influence cell morphology in any way and did not alter the effect that cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate has upon cell morphology. 相似文献

All members of the Enterobacteriaceae possess distinct 5'-nucleotidases and cyclic phosphodiesterases (3'-nucleotidases) that can be differentiated from the acid and alkaline phosphatases and the acid sugar hydrolases. The nucleotidases and cyclic phosphodiesterases of the various Enterobacteriaceae are remarkably similar in properties. All of the 5'-nucleotidases hydrolyze 5'-nucleotides, adenosine triphosphate, and uridine diphosphoglucose. Their pH optimum is from 5.7 to 6.1. The cyclic phosphodiesterases hydrolyze 3'-nucleotides, cyclic phosphonucleotides, bis-(p-nitrophenyl)phosphate, and p-nitrophenylphosphate. Their pH optimum is from 7.2 to 7.8. For both enzymes, cobalt showed optimal metal stimulation. An intracellular protein inhibitor for the 5'-nucleotidase is present in all of the Enterobacteriaceae. No inhibitor of cyclic phosphodiesterase activity exists, although hydrolysis of both cyclic phosphonucleotides and 3'-nucleotides is inhibited by ribonucleic acid. Neither of the enzymes is subject to control by phosphate level or by catabolite repression. Of the other bacteria studied, only Haemophilus and Bacillus subtilis contained significant 3'- or 5'-nucleotidase activity. 相似文献

A dinucleoside monophosphate was isolated from 5-bromouracil-induced filaments of a thymine auxotroph of Escherichia coli K-12. The dinucleoside monophosphate was fractioned from a [(14)C]5-bromouracil-labeled perchloric acid extract using Dowex-1-formate ion-exchange chromatography. Sephadex chromatography revealed its molecular weight to be 710. Snake venom phosphodiesterase digest of the dinucleoside monophosphate yielded [(14)C]5-bromouridine and adenosine 5'-monophosphate. The presence of [(14)C]5-bromouracil in bacterial ribonucleic acid indicates that ribonucleic acid, which had incorporated 5-bromouracil, was the probable source of this dinucleoside monophosphate, 5-bromouridylyl-(3' --> 5')-adenosine. 相似文献

Two adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (AMP)-deficient mutants of Vibrio cholerae (biotype El Tor) were successfully isolated by nitrosoguanidine treatment followed by pencillin screening for pleiotropic sugar-negative clones. Exogenous cyclic AMP is required for the fermentation of sucrose, trehalose, fructose, maltose, and mannose but not of glucose, as well as for the formation of normal flagella and specific somatic antigens. A striking characteristic of the mutants is their growth behavior at higher temperatures. They cannot grow on TCBS selective plates at 37 C or higher unless they are provided with a supply of exogenous cyclic AMP, although they are capable of producing colonies on the same medium, even without cyclic AMP, at temperatures lower than 30 C. Since the mutants are converted to spheroplasts, spindle forms, and spiral filaments in cyclic AMP-free media at 37 C, and this phenomenon is stopped by the addition of cyclic AMP or a combination of 20% sucrose and 0.2% magnesium chloride, it is assumed that cyclic AMP is essential for the synthesis of the cell wall of V. cholerae at higher temperatures. 相似文献

The cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate (c-AMP) phosphodiesterase from Escherichia coli has been partially purified. The enzyme has an apparent molecular weight of 30,000, a Michaelis constant of 0.5 mM c-AMP, and a pH optimum of 7. The partially purified enzyme requires for activity the presence of a reducing compound and of either iron or a protein which seemingly acts as iron carrier. 相似文献

Mutants that require exogenous 3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) for exponential growth were isolated from strains deficient in adenyl cyclase. Studies of one strain showed that cAMP is not incorporated into macromolecules; instead, it seems to have a regulatory function, i.e., in media lacking cAMP, cells form ribonucleic acid (RNA) and protein at linear rather than exponential rates. The exact lesion is not known; ribosomes, messenger RNA, and the beta and beta' subunits of RNA polymerase continue to be made in absence of added cAMP. 相似文献
