We prepared the 5'- and 3'-O-phosphorothioate esters of the antitumor agent O2 : 2'-anhydro-1-beta-D-arabinosylcytosine. We also included in this study esters of 2'-thio-2'-deoxycytidine, namely, 2'-S-dCyd-2' : 3'-P, 2'-S-dCyd-2'-P, and 2'-S-dCyd-3'-P, along with natural nucleotides. These compounds were subjected to the action of Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase, potato acid phosphatase, and bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A. The data were analyzed by Lineweaver-Burk plots to obtain Km and KI values. Only 2'-S-dCyd-2'-P was a substrate for alkaline phosphatase; the anhydro-araCyt phosphorothioates were good competitive inhibitors, while 2'-S-dCyd-3'-P did not associate with the enzyme. Acid phosphatase hydrolyzed all four monoesters investigated, including the S-phosphorothioate. The cyclic phosphorothioate, 2'-S-dCyd-2' : 3'-P was neither hydrolyzed by, nor associated with, ribonuclease A. ORD spectroscopy was also used in an attempt to relate the structural features of analogs to the peculiarity of their hydrolysis.

A dialysable low-molecular-weight factor capable of affecting in vitro properties of macrophages was extracted from four different mouse tumors. This factor not only modulates closely related properties of peritoneal macrophages such as spreading and migration but also inhibits lipopolysaccharde-induced tumoricidal activity of these cells. It can be extracted not only from tumor tissues but also from tumor cells grown in vitro. The appearance of this factor is unique to tumors and it is not present in detectable quantities in normal tissues. The factor from one of the tumors, Lewis lung carcinoma, was purified extensively and the partially purified factor retains all the above effects on macrophages. It is not sensitive to pronase or a mixture of bovine spleen phosphodiesterase II, E. coli alkaline phosphatase and pancreatic ribonuclease. The factor is lipid-like in character and it is soluble in both organic solvents and aqueous media. It has ionizable group(s) and is anionic at neutral pH but non-ionic under acidic conditions.

Two dimensional PEI-cellulose thin layer chromatography can resolve sequentially degraded oligonucleotide fragments of tRNA. This technique entails the sequential degradation of the oligonucleotide with snake venom phosphodiesterase in the presence of bacterial alkaline phosphatase, and periodate oxidation followed by tritiated sodium borohydride reduction of the 3' terminal nucleoside. Subsequently the tritiated oligonucleotide fragments were resolved by two dimensional PEI-cellulose TLC. The results of these experiments indicate that, in some cases, the complete nucleotide sequence of a large oligonucleotide fragment may be determined by interpretation of the observed mobility shifts, thereby eliminiating the need for additional analysis of the oligonucleotide. In addition, the use of two-dimensional rather than one-dimensional resolution of the tritium labeled fragments allows for a complete separation of any interfering background spots from the sequentially degraded oligonucleotides. This procedure was applied to the complete nucleotide sequence analysis of several ribonuclease T1Val and ribonuclease A digestion products from human placenta tRNA.

Optimal conditions for prolonged in vitro synthesis of RNA in isolated chicken liver nuclei have been described. It is shown by incorporation of gamma32P-GTP into RNA, analysis of the product on sucrose density gradient, and digestion with alkaline phosphatase and ribonuclease A that there is reinitiation of RNA synthesis. Polynucleotide kinase activity has been ruled out as explanation for the incorporation of gamma32P-GTP. alpha-Amanitin inhibits RNA synthesis by about 50%. Nuclei prepared from estradiol-treated chicks have twice the RNA synthesis activity as the controls. RNA is synthesized in the presence of Hg-UTP and the mercurated product separated by affinity chromatography on sulfhydryl-Sepharose column under stringent conditions. Vitellogenin mRNA sequences are measured by hybridization with DNA complementary to vitellogenin mRNA. Estradiol treatment leads to a 10-fold increase in vitellogenin mRNA sequences.

Poly(A)-containing messenger RNA isolated from rabbit reticulocytes as estimated by periodate oxidation and condensation with [3H]isoniazid has two oxidizable end groups per molecule of mol. wt. 220000. When the mRNA is subjected to stepwise degradation by beta-elimination, only one oxidizable end-group is found. This indicates that one of the 2',3' hydroxyl end-groups is linked through the normal 3'--5' phosphodiester bond, but that the other is linked in such a way that after stepwise degradation no new 2',3 hydroxyl group is revealed. This structure could be a 5'-linked 5'-phospho di- or tri-ester. On digestion with ribonuclease the isoniazid-labelled RNA produced oligonucleotide hydrazones consistent with a poly(A) sequence at the 3' end plus fragments that are not found after stepwise degradation. These fragments have a charge of --6 and --8 from pancreatic ribonuclease or --7 from ribonuclease T1 digestion. These charges are changed to --3.4 and --4.1 after pancreatic ribonuclease, ribonuclease T2 and alkaline phosphatase digestion. methyl-3H-labelled-poly(A)-containing RNA isolated from late erythroid cells contain a methyl-labelled fragment resistant to endonuclease and phosphodiesterase II digestion. After digestion with phosphodiesterase I this fragment produces methyl-3 H-labelled nucleotides with the electrophoretic mobility of pm7G and pAm. It is concluded that globin mRNA has the 5' sequences m7G(5')ppp'AmpYpGp ... and m7G(5')pppAmpApGpYp.

RNA ligase isolated from Escherichia coli infected with bacteriophage T4 will catalyze the formation of an intermolecular 3' leads to 5' phosphodiester linkage between an oligoribonucleotide with a free 3'-hydroxyl and another oligoribonucleotide with a 5'-phosphate. Upon reaction with (Ap)5C, nearly quantitative conversion of the hexamer [5'-32P]p(Up)5U to the dodecamer (Ap)5C[3' leads to 5'-32P]p(Up)5U was observed. The product was identified by its mobility on RPC-5 column chromatography, its resistance to alkaline phosphatase, and the appearance of the expected radiolabeled products on hydrolysis with alkali, ribonuclease A, snake venom phosphodiesterase, and spleen phosphodiesterase. The coupling of other pairs of single-stranded oligoribonucleotides has also been demonstrated. The intermolecular joining reaction is probably mechanistically similar to the intramolecular cyclization activity previously reported for Tr RNA ligase. It is expected that this enzyme will be useful for the synthesis of RNA fragments of defined sequence.

It was shown previously that the Escherichia coli gene ppfA (dsbA) encodes a periplasmic protein, and its inactivation leads to a deficiency in disulfide bond formation of envelope proteins (Kamitani, S., Akiyama, Y., and Ito, K. (1992) EMBO J. 11, 57-62; Bardwell, J. C. A., McGovern, K., and Beckwith, J. (1991) Cell 67, 581-589). The DsbA/PpfA protein was overproduced, purified, and examined for its activities in vitro. Its abundance in a wild-type cell was estimated to be about 850 molecules which probably exist as homodimers as suggested by size exclusion chromatography. Purified DsbA markedly stimulated disulfide bond formation of E. coli alkaline phosphatase, either in vitro synthesized or purified and denatured, as well as of reduced bovine ribonuclease A. The DsbA-catalyzed rapid disulfide bond formation occurred after a lag period which appeared to be determined by the redox state of the reaction mixture and concentration of DsbA. Inclusion of higher concentrations of oxidized glutathione or DsbA shortened the lag period. We propose that DsbA, which proved to directly catalyze disulfide bond formation, may also have a role in maintaining the bacterial periplasm oxidative.

We measured the excretion rates of six urinary enzymes that either originate from the proximal renal tubule, like alanine aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.11.2), alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1), gamma-glutamyltransferase (EC 2.3.2.2), and N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (EC 3.2.1.30), or that are typical low-molecular-mass proteins, like lysozyme (EC 3.2.1.17) and pancreatic ribonuclease (EC 3.1.27.5). These rates were compared with those of total protein and albumin in urine of 36 insulin-dependent diabetic men and 30 healthy men. Seventeen of the diabetics had "clinical proteinuria," defined as excretion of more than 7.5 g of protein per mole of urinary creatinine (group B). Group A comprised the 19 diabetics without proteinuria. Except for gamma-glutamyltransferase, the excretions of enzymes and proteins were significantly higher in diabetics than in controls and were greater in group B than in group A. N-Acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase was the analyte most often increased in group A (89%), followed by albumin and alkaline phosphatase (each 32%). All patients in group B showed increased excretion of N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase. We conclude from the comparative data that this enzyme may be useful as an early predictor of diabetic nephropathy.

A pancreatic ribonuclease digest of carbon-14-labeled Satellite Tobacco Necrosis Virus RNA was fractionated, according to charge, by column chromatography. Individual fractions were dephosphorylated with alkaline phosphomonoesterase and rechromatogramed. The fraction originally containing oligonucleotides with seven negative charges separated into two components corresponding to five and two negative charges, respectively, and therefore must have contained a terminal trinucleotide 5'-pyrophosphate, in addition to the internal hexanucleotides. Other fractions when similarly treated were found to contain only internal oligonucleotides.

A pancreatic ribonuclease digest of (14)C-labeled tobacco necrosis virus RNA was fractionated according to charge by column chromatography. Individual fractions were dephosphorylated with alkaline phosphatase and rechromatographed. The fraction, originally containing oligonucleotides with seven negative charges, separated into two components corresponding to five (-5) and two negative charges (-2). The -5 fraction was derived from the internal oligonucleotides while the -2 fraction must have originated from a 5'-pyrophosphorylated terminal trinucleotide. The sequence of this terminal trinucleotide was determined by column chromatography on DEAE-cellulose in a triethyl ammonium carbonate gradient, using the appropriate markers. The radioactivity chromatographed with a (ApGp)U marker. The order of the Ap and Gp was determined after ribonuclease T(1) and alkaline phosphatase digestion. The radioactivity in the product chromatographed with an ApG marker. The 5'-terminus of tobacco necrosis virus RNA was therefore determined as ppApGpUp..., which is identical to the terminus of the RNA of its satellite virus as previously determined (J. Mol. Biol., 38, 59 (1968); Science, 160, 1452 (1968)). The 5' pyrophosphate in both viruses was probably formed by an in vivo enzymatic removal of a gamma-phosphate from a triphosphate, and its presence in both viruses suggested a common site of synthesis. The identity of the 5'-terminal sequences is considered not to be fortuitous and is discussed from the standpoint of their role as a recognition site for the virus-specific RNA replicase.
