Abstract:A splitting activity on diadenosine triphosphate has been found in rat liver. One of the products of the cleavage is ADP. A Km of 10 μM has been found. This activity on diadenosine triphosphate seems to be specific as diadenosine tetraphosphate, a nucleotide previously described by others to occur in rat liver at very low concentration, is not a substrate of the reaction. The occurrence of diadenosine triphosphate in rat liver has not been so far reported, but a dinucleoside triphosphate structure has been described at the 5′ end of certain mRNAs. The possibility that this enzymatic activity may be involved in the hydrolysis of diadenosine triphosphate or in the processing of mRNAs is suggested.
