| Abstract: | Adenosine 3',5'-pyrophosphate, previously isolated from the red alga Porphyra perforata , possesses biological properties similar to those of a cyclic AMP-like compound isolated from higher plants. Both compounds are potent inhibitors of bovine cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and bovine phosphodiesterase. |
