1. 3'-Guanylyl-ethanol, 3'-guanylyl-propanol, and 3'-guanylyl-alpha-glycerol were synthesized by ribonuclease N1 [EC 3.1.4.8] using guanosine 2',3'-cyclic phosphate as a phosphate donor and various alcohols as phosphate acceptors. The yields of these phosphodiesters were 15%, 13.5%, 38.2%, respectively, with respect to phosphate donor under the optimum conditions. No phosphodiester was synthesized when 2-propanol was used as a phosphate acceptor. Thus, primary alcoholic hydroxyl groups may be regarded as the preferred phosphate acceptor. 2. 3'-Guanylyl-glucose and 3'-guanylyl-ribose were synthesized using glucose and ribose as phosphate acceptors. Under the optimum conditions, the yields of guanylyl-glucose amounted to 52.0%, while that of guanylyl-ribose was much lower. The guanylyl-glucose can be regarded as 3'-guanylyl-6-glucopyranose, based on the results of periodate oxidation. 3. Neither hydroxyamino acids (serine and threonine) nor N-acetylserinamide could be phosphorylated under the conditions used for the above phosphorylations. 4. 3'-Guanylyl-glycerol obtained as above was hydrolyzed by snake venon phosphodiesterase to produce glycerol 3-phosphate. The latter consisted of L-glycerol 3-phosphate (ca 17%) and the D-isomer (ca. 83%). Ribonuclease N1 thus catalyzes an asymmetric synthesis.

Two regulatory mutants in orthophosphate-regulated cyclic phosphodiesterase (cPDase), cpd-3 and cpd-4, were isolated and mapped proximal to arg-1 on L.G. IC and distal to arg-12 on L.G. IIR, respectively. cpd-3 showed short aerial hyphae with dense formation of conidia. The morphology was very similar to that of cr-1, cpd-3 and cr-1 had reduced levels of cyclic 3',5'-AMP, adenylate cyclase and cPDases (CPDase I, II and III in low phosphate condition) but had elevated levels of cyclic 3',5'-GMP. Although cr-1 showed an enhanced level and enhanced activation of heat activated cyclic phosphodiesterase (ha-PDE), this enzyme was not activated in cpd-3. cpd-4, nuc-1 and nuc-2 produced neither cPDase I, II, III, alkaline phosphatase nor ribonuclease N1 in low phosphate media. These mutants did not produce aerial hyphae or conidia when grown in low phosphate liquid medium. Activation of ha-PDE occurred in cpd-4, but not in nuc-1 and nuc-2.
