Abstract: | Several naturally-occurring lipids but not n-propanol, guanidine-HCl or a variety of synthetic detergents stimulate the 3′,5′-cyclic AMP-phosphodiesterase activities of a supernatant fraction of brain at 1.25 × 10?7 M cAMP. The time courses of the reaction are linear in the presence and absence of lipid. On the other hand, lipid has different effects on various phosphodiesterase activities in fractions obtained after gel filtration of the crude extract. It stimulates the phosphodiesterase activities measured at 1.25 × 10?7 M and 10?4 M 3′,5′-cyclic-AMP and 1.25 × 10?7 M 3′,5′-cyclic GMP in two of the fractions partially retained in the gel. However, lipid has little effect on the enzymatic hydrolysis of low concentrations of cAMP or cGMP and markedly inhibits the hydrolysis of high concentrations of cAMP by the fraction excluded from the gel. |
