Studies on photophosphorylation utilizing methylene diphosphonate analogs of ADP and ATP.
Authors:A Horak  S Zalik
Abstract:Spinach chloroplasts were able to photophosphorylate the ADP analog alpha,beta-methylene adenosine 5'-diphosphate (AOPCP). Phosphorylation of AOPCP was catalyzed by chloroplasts that were washed or dialyzed to remove free endogenous nucleotides. In the presence of glucose, hexokinase, AOPCP and 32Pi, the 32P label was incorporated into alpha,beta-methylene adenosine 5'-triphosphate (AOPCPOP). In contrast to photophosphorylation of AOPCP, the ATP analog AOPCPOP was a poor substrate for the ATP-Pi exchange reaction and its hydrolysis was neither stimulated by light and dithiothreitol nor inhibited by Dio-9. Photophosphorylation of AOPCP was inhibited by the alpha,beta- and beta,gamma-substituted methylene analogs of ATP, while phosphorylation of ADP was unaffected by them. The ATP-Pi exchange was also unaffected by both ATP analogs, while the weak AOPCPOP-Pi exchange was inhibited by the beta,gamma-methylene analog of ATP. Direct interaction of methylene analogs with the chloroplast coupling factor ATPase was indicated by the enzymatic hydrolysis of AOPCPOP on polyacrylamide gels.
