Diisopropyl phosphorofluoridate (DFP) produces organophosphorus ester-induced delayed neurotoxicity (OPIDN) in humans and sensitive animal species, e.g., adult chicken. The chickens were sacrificed 18 days after a single dose of DFP (1.7 mg/kg, sc.), which produced severe ataxia or paralysis in 10–14 days. We studied Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent in vitro neurofilament phosphorylation by the brain subcellular fractions of control and DFP-treated hens. There was enhanced phosphorylation of all three NF subunits by the brain supernatant of treated hens. This was accompanied by enhanced autophosphorylation of both Ca2+/CaM-dependent protein kinase II (CaM-kinase II) subunits and increased calmodulin binding using either125I-CaM or biotinylated calmodulin to only subunit without concomitant increase in the amount of this enzyme. This enhanced phosphorylation of neurofilament subunits was completely and partially inhibited by mastoparan and KN-62, respectively. There was no alteration in the distribution of CaM-kinase II activity in treated hens and the activity was not related to its concentration in different subcellular fractions. The difference in125I-CaM binding to CaM-kinase II subunit in the brain supernatants of control and DFP-treated hens was not altered by its phosphorylation or dephosphorylation. The increased CaM-kinase II activity in the soluble fraction of DFP-treated hen brain may be involved in the aberrant phosphorylation of axonal neurofilaments, and thus play a role in OPIDN.Abbreviations CaM

Diisopropyl phosphorofluoridate (DFP) produces type I organophosphorus ester-induced delayed neurotoxicity in humans and sensitive animal species. This is accompanied by enhanced Ca2+/CaM-dependent protein kinase II (CaM-kinase II) activity, and [125I]calmodulin binding to CaM-kinase II in DFP-treated hen brain supernatant without increase in the enzyme quantity. We have purified CaM-kinase II from control and DFP-treated hen whole brains and compared various physical and biochemical properties. The two enzymes exhibited similar properties in many respects. However, there was a decrease in calcium-independent protein kinase II activity after autophosphorylation, and an increase in K0.5 for free calcium and calmodulin of enzyme purified from DFP-treated hen brains. This change in kinetic parameters may result in greater percentage of total CaM-kinase II present in unphosphorylated form, which is consistent with the increased autophosphorylation of CaM-kinase II and [125I]calmodulin binding in the brain supernatant of DFP-treated hens.Abbreviations used CaM

Diisopropyl phosphorofluoridate (DFP) produces delayed neurotoxicity, known as organophosphorus ester-induced delayed neurotoxicity (OPIDN), in hen, human, and other sensitive species. A single dose of DFP (1.7 mg/kg, se.) produces first mild ataxia followed by paralysis in 7-14 days in hens. DFP treatment also increases in vitro autophosphorylation of Ca2+ calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM kinase II) and the phosphorylation of several cytoslceletal proteins in the hen brain. To investigate whether increase in CaM kinase II activity is associated with increased expression of its mRNA, we cloned and sequenced CaM kinase II a subunit cDNA, and used it to study CaM kinase II expression in brain regions and spinal cord. Hen CaM kinase II subunit differs in 7 amino acids from that of rat CaM kinase II. Its mRNA occurs predominantly as a 6.7 kb message, which is very close to that of human CaM kinase II a subunit. Northern blot analysis showed a transient increase in CaM kinase II subunit mRNA in the cerebellum and spinal cord of DFP-treated chickens. The increase in CaM kinase II mRNA expression is consistent with the previously reported increase in its activity in brain and spinal cord, and its increased expression only in cerebellum and spinal cord, which are sensitive to the Wallerian-type degeneration characteristic of OPIDN, suggests the probable role of this enzyme in delayed neurotoxicity. 相似文献

Summary Soluble lead salts and a number of lead-containing minerals catalyze the formation of oligonucleotides from nucleoside 5-phosphorimidazolides. The effectiveness of lead compounds correlates strongly with their solubility. Under optimal conditions we were able to obtain 18% of pentamer and higher oligomers from ImpA.

Crude extracts of Rhodospirillum rubrum catalyzed the formation of acid-volatile radioactivity from (35S) sulfate, (35S) adenosine-5-phosphosulfate, and (35S) 3-phosphoadenosine-5-phosphosulfate. An enzyme fraction similar to APS-sulfotransferases from plant sources was purified 228-fold from Rhodospirillum rubrum. It is suggested here that this enzyme is specific for adenosine-5-phosphosulfate, because the purified enzyme fraction metabolized adenosine-5-phosphosulfate, however, only at a rate of 1/10 of that with adenosine-5-phosphosulfate. Further, the reaction with 3-phosphoadenosine-5-phosphosulfate was inhibited with 3-phosphoadenosine-5-phosphate whereas this nucleotide had no effect on the reaction with adenosine-5-phosphosulfate. For this activity with adenosine-5-phosphosulfate the name APS-sulfotransferase is suggested. This APS-sulfotransferase needs thiols for activity; good rates were obtained with either dithioerythritol or reduced glutathione; other thiols like cysteine, 2-3-dimercaptopropanol or mercaptoethanol are less effective. The electron donor methylviologen did not catalyze this reaction. The pH-optimum was about 9.0; the apparent K
m for adenosine-5-phosphosulfate was determined to be 0.05 mM with this so far purified enzyme fraction. Enzyme activity was increased with K2SO4 and Na2SO4 and was inhibited by 5-AMP. These properties are similar to assimilatory APS-sulfotransferases from spinach and Chlorella.Abbreviations APS

Summary We have studied the reactions between adenosine 5-phosphorimidazolide and 9-(2-amino-2-deoxyxylofuranosyl) adenine (I) or 3-methylamino-3-deoxyadenosine (II), both with and without a poly (U) template. We find that both amino compounds react much more rapidly than does adenosine, in the absence of a template. The rate of reaction is greatly enhanced by a poly (U) template in the case of I, but the enhancement is slight in the case of II.Abbreviations A

Summary Evaporation of a solution of thymidine plus either theexo or theendo diastereomer of uridine cyclic 2,3-O, O-phosphorothioate (U > p(S) in 1,2-diaminoethane hydrochloride buffer gave the 2,5 and 3,5 isomers of (P-thio) uridylylthymidine (Up(S)dT) in a ratio of 1:2 with a combined yield of about 20%. These isomers were re-converted to U > p(S) and dT by a reaction that is known to proceed by an in-line mechanism. Both the 2,5 and 3,5 isomers gave as product the same diastereomer of U > p(S) that had been used originally in their formation. These dry-state prebiotic reactions (Verlander, Lohrmann, and Orgel 1973) are thus shown to be stereospecific, and both the 2,5 and 3,5 internucleotide bonds are formed by an in-line mechanism.Abbreviations DAE

Purified ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.39) was strongly and equally inhibited either by ADP or GDP and to a lesser extent by IDP. AMP or ATP exerted little effect on activity. Inhibition by the nucleotide diphosphates was competitive with respect to RuBP and non-competitive with respect to CO2 and Mg2+, respectively. Treatment of the enzyme with urea or guanidine-HCl resulted in rapid loss of activity that was not restored by dialysis even in the presence of Mg2+ and cysteine. Sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis of 8.0 M urea treated enzyme revealed the presence of a fast-moving (small) sub-unit with molecular weight 14150 and a slower moving (large) sub-unit with molecular weight 68000. Examination of native enzyme by sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis gave sub-units of 13700 and 55500 respectively. The amino acid content standardized to phenylalanine was essentially similar to that from other sources. Arrhenius plots showed a break at 29°C with an E
a of 12.34 kcal per mole for the steeper part of the curve and a H of 11.43 kcal per mole while for the less steep region, the E
a was 1.04 kcal per mole and the H 1.92 kcal per mole.Abbreviations ADP

Crude extracts or supernatants of broken cells of Clostridium formicoaceticum reduce unbranched, branched, saturated and unsaturated carboxylates at the expense of carbon monoxide to the corresponding alcohols. The presence of viologens with redox potentials varying from E
0=-295 to-650 mV decreased the rate of propionate reduction. The more the propionate reduction was diminished the more formate was formed from carbon monoxide. The lowest propionate reduction and highest formate formation was observed with methylviologen. The carbon-carbon double bond of E-2-methyl-butenoate was only hydrogenated when a viologen was present. Formate as electron donor led only in the presence of viologens to the formation of propanol from propionate. The reduction of propionate at the expense of a reduced viologen can be followed in cuvettes. With respect to propionate Michaelis Menten behavior was observed. Experiments are described which lead to the assumption that the carboxylates are reduced in a non-activated form. That would be new type of biological reduction.Non-standard abbreviations glc

Summary 2-Amino-2-deoxyuridine reacts efficiently with nucleoside 5-phosphorimidazolides in aqueous solution. The dinucleoside monophosphate analogues were obtained in yields exceeding 80% under conditions in which little reaction occurs with the natural nucleosides.In a similar way, the 5-phosphorimidazolide of 2-amino-2-deoxyuridine undergoes self-condensation in aqueous solution to give a complex mixture of oligomers.The phosphoramidate bond in the dinucleoside monophosphate analogues is stable for several days at room temperature and pH 7. The mechanisms of their hydrolysis under acidic and alkaline conditions are described.Abbreviations A

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

Summary The self-condensation of 2(3)-O-glycyl esters of adenosine, adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate) and P1, P2-diadenosine-5-pyrophosphate in 6.2 mM solutions at pH 8.0 and -5°C in the presence of 12.5 mM poly(U) yields approximately 3 times as much diketopiperazine as reactions without poly(U). As the concentration of 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-P1, P2-diadenosine-5-pyrophosphate is decreased from 6.2 mM to 1.5 mM the yield of diketopiperazine in the presence of poly(U) decreases slightly from 6.6% to 5.2%, whereas, in the absence of poly(U) the yield of diketopiperazine decreases substantially from 2.4% to 0.75%. The enhanced yield of diketopiperazine that is attributed to the template action of poly(U) is temperature dependent and is observed only at temperatures below 10°C (5°C to -5°C) for 6.2 mM 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate) and below 23°C (15°C to -5°C) for 6.2 mM 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-P1, P2-diadenosine-5-pyrophosphate. The absence of a template effect at high temperatures is attributed to the melting of the organized helices. The hydrolysis half-lives at pH 8.0 and -5°C of 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine, 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate), 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-P1, P2-diadenosine-5-pyrophosphate, and 5-O-(glycyl)-adenosine in the presence of poly(U) are substantially larger than their half-lives in the absence of poly(U). The condensation of 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine yields 5% of 5-O-(glycyl)-adenosine in the presence of poly(U) compared to 0.7% in the absence of poly(U).Abbreviations DKP

2D NMR spectroscopy and J coupling constant analysis are applied to resolve the structure of two photoproducts of thymidylyl-(35)-thymidine. These products are cyclobutane type thymine dimers possessing the cis-syn (the predominant one) and trans-syn geometry. The cis-syn is formed in an ANTI-ANTI conformation about the N-glycosyl linkages and resembles the normal base-stacked configuration. The glycosidic conformation in solution of the 5 terminal fragment differs from the crystal in which the less common SYN conformation is observed. In this isomer only the sugar pucker of the 3 terminal fragment is changed substantially with respect to the dinucleotide. The trans-syn isomer is formed in a SYN-ANTI glycosidic conformation. In this isomer the sugar puckers of both deoxyribose rings are affected and a preference for a pure 2-endo conformation is observed.Abbreviations dTpdT

4-Methylumbelliferyl 6-O-benzyl--d-lactoside (6Bn-MU-Lac) and some related compounds were synthesizedvia different selective reactions including phase-transfer glycosylation. Their suitability as substrates for a fluorometric assay of ceramide glycanase (CGase) was evaluated. Among others, the 6Bn-MU-Lac, which is resistant to exogalactosidase, was found to be a suitable substrate for routine assay of the CGase activity. For American leech CGase, theK

Summary The yields of dipeptide obtained from the reaction of 0.2M 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate) and 0.2M amino acid at pH 8.2 ranged from 0.1% to 35.5% for a group of 15 amino acids. The yields of glyser (35.3%), gly-cys (11.8%) and gly-thr (5.4%) were considerably greater than dipeptide yields obtained from any of the other 12 amino acids ( 1.7%). Aminolysis of 0.05M 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate) by 0.4M serine ethyl ester yielded 53% glycylserine diketopiperazine, via N-(glycyl)-serine ethyl ester as a transient intermediate. The prebiotic significance of these reactions is discussed.Abbreviations

The white rot basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium metabolized 1-(3,4-diethoxyphenyl)-1,3(dihydroxy)-2-(4'-methoxyphenyl)-propane (XII) in low nitrogen stationary cultures, conditions under which the ligninolytic enzyme system is expressed. 3,4-Diethoxybenzyl alcohol (IV), 1,2(dihydroxy)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethane (XX) and anisyl alcohol were isolated as metabolic products indicating an initial , bond cleavage of this dimer. Exogenously added XX was rapidly converted to anisyl alcohol, indicating that XX is an intermediate in the metabolism of XII. Fungal cleavage of the , bond of 1-(3-4-diethoxyphenyl)-1-(hydroxy)-2-(4'-methoxyphenyl)ethane (XI) also occurred, indicating that a hydroxymethyl group is not a prerequisite for this reaction. P. chrysosporium also metabolized 1-(4-ethoxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2,2(dihydroxy)-2-(4'-methoxyphenyl)propane-1-ol (XIII). The major products of the degradation of this triol included 4-ethoxy-3-methoxybenzyl alcohol (III) and 2-hydroxy-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-oxoethane (XXI). The nature of the products formed indicates that this triol is also cleaved directly at the , bond. The significant difference in the nature of the products formed from the diaryl propane (XII) and the triol (XIII), however, suggests that XIII is not an intermediate in the major pathway for the degradation of XII. Metabolites were identified after comparison with chemically synthesized standards by GLC-mass spectrometry.Abbreviations GLC

Summary Short oligocytidylates can act as templates for the self-condensation of guanosine 5-phosphorimidazolide. In the absence of a catalytic metal ion or in the presence of Pb2+ a noticeable template effect is already observed with the dimer and the yield of long oligomers reaches a plateau with a hexamer template. Short templates give oligomers longers than the template length. The products are predominantly 2-5 linked for the Pb2+-catalyzed reaction while mixed linkages are observed in the uncatalyzed reaction.In the presence of Zn2+, a template effect is first observed with the pentamer and is maximal by the heptamer. The products are predominantly 3-5 linked. Oligomers shorter than or as long as the template are obtained in substantial yield, and longer products in much lower yields.Abbreviations G

Summary We have synthesized 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine-5-(O-methylphos-phate), an analogue of the 3-terminus of aminoacylated tRNA. A 0.4M solution of this compound maintained at pH 8.2, yields 5.5% of diglycine and 11.5% of diketopiperazine, in addition to the hydrolysis products glycine and adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate). Under the same conditions, glycine ethyl ester reacts much more slowly, but ultimately gives similar yields of diglycine and diketopiperazine.The aminolysis of 2(3)-O-(glycyl)-adenosine-5-(O-methylphosphate) by free glycine is relatively inefficient, but serine reacts 20 times more rapidly and yields up to 50% of N-glycylserine. The prebiotic significance of these reactions is discussed.Abbreviations MepA
