The inosinate dehydrogenase (IMPD) inhibitors ribavirin, tiazofurin and mycophenolic acid were found to stimulate by as much as 20-fold the anabolism of the anti-HIV agent 2' ,3'dideoxyguanosine to its 5'-diphosphate (ddGDP) in a human T-cell culture system (Molt-4 cells). Stimulation of the further conversion to ddGTP (the active form of the drug) was lesser in magnitude but still highly significant (up to 4-fold at appropriate concentrations of ribavirin or tiazofurin). In parallel with these increases, the inhibitors also produced increases of up to 35-fold in IMP levels. These results support the proposal that the initial phosphorylation of ddGuo is catalyzed by a phosphotransferase (5'-nucleotidase) which utilizes IMP as its phosphate donor (Johnson and Fridland, [1989] Molec. Pharmacol. 36, 291-295). Concomitant with this increase in 5'-phosphorylation of ddGuo, an increase in its anti-HIV activity of up to 6.5-fold was observed when this agent was combined with ribavirin (5 microM) in the H9 [corrected] cell assay system.

5'-Nucleotidase I (N-I) from rabbit heart was purified to homogeneity. After ammonium sulfate precipitation, the purification involved chromatography on phosphocellulose, DEAE-Sepharose, AMP-agarose, and ADP-agarose. The pure enzyme has a specific activity of 318 mumol (mg of protein)-1 min-1. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate yields a subunit molecular weight of 40,000. N-I is activated by ADP but not by ATP, in contrast to the 5'-nucleotidase (N-II) purified by Itoh et al. (1986), which is activated by ATP and, less well, by ADP. N-I displays sigmoidal saturation kinetics in the absence of ADP and hyperbolic kinetics in the presence of ADP. Partially purified N-I was previously shown to prefer AMP over IMP as substrate (Truong et al., 1988); this has been confirmed for pure N-I. Comparison of AMP and ADP concentrations reported to occur in heart with the kinetic behavior of N-I implicates N-I as the enzyme responsible for producing adenosine under conditions leading to a rise in ADP and AMP, such as hypoxia or increased workload. N-I is not activated by the ADP analogue adenosine 5'-methylenediphosphonate (AOPCP) and is only weakly inhibited by relatively high concentrations of AOPCP, in contrast to 5'-nucleotidase from plasma membrane, which is powerfully inhibited by this analogue. N-I shows an absolute dependence on Mg2+ ions. Mn2+ and Co2+ ions can replace Mg2+ ions as activator; Ni2+ and Fe2+ are much less effective, while Ca2+, Ba2+, Zn2+, and Cu2+ fail to activate the enzyme.

A soluble 5'-nucleotidase was identified in rat kidney and partially purified. Compared with 5'-IMP, 5'-AMP was a poor substrate. The affinity for 5'-IMP was very low (S0.5 greater than 1 mM) in the absence of an activator, and it was much increased (S0.5 = 0.1 mM) by 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG). ATP and bisadenosyl tetraphosphate were further activators. The pH optimum was 6.3. Those properties suggest that the renal soluble 5'-nucleotidase is identical with the 'high-Km' 5'-nucleotidase purified previously from liver, heart and erythrocytes. Decavanadate (100 nM) increased the rate of hydrolysis of 1 mM-5'-IMP 16-fold. The effect was specific for the decameric form of vanadate, since it was not reproduced by either decavanadate-free orthovanadate or pervanadate. Half-maximal activation was obtained at 1.4 nM-decavanadate. Decavanadate increased the affinity of the soluble 5'-nucleotidase for 5'-IMP. The effects of 2,3-DPG and of vanadate were not additive. Thus decavanadate probably influences the soluble 5'-nucleotidase in the same way as 2,3-DPG, but with a much higher potency.

The growth inhibitory activity of tiazofurin toward adenosine kinase deficient Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells was partially reversed by the presence of nicotinamide riboside. Similarly, the formation of tiazofurin 5'-monophosphate and the active metabolite, tiazofurin 5'-adenine dinucleotide could be partially inhibited by 100 microM nicotinamide riboside in CHO cells and substantially inhibited (80-90%) in adenosine kinase deficient cells. Tiazofurin phosphorylating activity from CHO cell extracts was resolved into two peaks by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. The first peak of activity was identified as adenosine kinase (ATP:adenosine 5'-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.20). The second peak of activity correlated with a previously described 3-deazaguanosine phosphorylating activity that was identified as a nicotinamide ribonucleoside kinase. Contaminating purine nucleoside phosphorylase was removed by sedimentation through a sucrose density gradient which also resolved the tiazofurin phosphorylating activity into two peaks, one requiring just ATP and the other requiring both ATP and IMP. Of the substrates tested with the lower density peak, nicotinamide riboside was most efficient and was the only natural substance that competed well with tiazofurin for phosphorylation, substantiating its suggested identity as a nicotinamide ribonucleoside kinase. The apparent Km value for nicotinamide riboside (2 microM) was significantly less than that for tiazofurin (13.6 microM). ATP was the best phosphate donor; CTP and UTP were utilized less efficiently and IMP did not support the reaction. The best substrate for the higher density peak of tiazofurin phosphorylation was inosine and both ATP and IMP were required for the reaction, suggesting its identity as a 5'-nucleotidase. In summary, it appears that adenosine kinase, nicotinamide ribonucleoside kinase, and 5'-nucleotidase may all contribute to the phosphorylation of tiazofurin in CHO cells.

The granular ATP released from chromaffin cells during the secretory response can be hydrolyzed by ectonucleotidases that are present in the plasma membrane of these cells. The ecto-ATPase activity showed a Km for ATP of 250 +/- 18 microM and a VMAX value of 167 +/- 25 nmol/10(6) cells x min (1.67 mumol/mg protein x min) for cultured chromaffin cells, while the ecto-ADPase activity showed a Km value for ADP of 375 +/- 40 microM and a VMAX of 125 +/- 20 nmol/10(6) cells x min (1.25 mumol/mg protein x min). The ecto 5'-nucleotidase activity of cultured chromaffin cells was more specific for the purine nucleotides, AMP and IMP, than for the pirimidine nucleotides, CMP and TMP. The Km for AMP was 55 +/- 5 microM and the VMAX value was 4.3 +/- 0.8 nmol/10(6) cells x min (43 nmol/mg protein x min). The nonhydrolyzable analogs of ADP and ATP, alpha, beta-methylene-adenosine 5'-diphosphate and adenylyl-(beta, gamma-methylene)-diphosphonate were good inhibitors of ecto 5'-nucleotidase activity, the KI values being 73.3 +/- 3.5 nM and 193 +/- 29 nM, respectively. The phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C released the ecto-5'-nucleotidase from the chromaffin cells in culture, thus suggesting an anchorage through phosphatidylinositol to plasma membranes. The presence of ectonucleotidases in chromaffin cells may permit the recycling of the extracellular ATP exocytotically released from these neural cells.

Three forms of 5'-nucleotidase purified from human placenta (two membrane-bound forms, one sensitive and one resistant to cleavage by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C, as well as a soluble form) had the same molecular weight before (73,000 Da) and after (56,000 Da) digestion with N-glycosidase F and showed similar amino acid compositions, N-terminal amino acid sequences, and KMs for IMP (9.6 to 11.9 microM). Thus, these three forms of 5'-nucleotidase appear to have very similar structures. The form sensitive to phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C contained nearly 1 mol myo-inositol/mol of protein as determined by mass spectrometry, indicating a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol membrane anchor. Soluble 5'-nucleotidase contained a similar quantity of myo-inositol, suggesting that it was previously membrane-anchored via glycosyl phosphatidylinositol. The form resistant to phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C contained less myo-inositol, leaving open the possibility of a third form of 5'-nucleotidase with a conventional transmembrane anchor.

1. Activity of "high Km" 5'-nucleotidase was investigated in the soluble fractions from cultured human T- and B-lymphoblasts. 2. Using gel filtration chromatography and 5'-AMP-Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography, it separated high Km 5'-nucleotidases from other two different soluble nucleoside 5'-phosphomonoesterase activities. 3. The molecular mass of the high Km enzymes from T- and B-lymphoblasts were 210 and 200 kDa, respectively. The optimum pH was at 6.5, and the Km values for IMP and AMP were 0.4 and 0.9 mM, respectively. 4. These properties of high Km 5'-nucleotidases were similar to those previously described from different tissues. These data indicate that soluble high Km 5'-nucleotidase coexists with "low Km" enzyme.

A soluble 5'-nucleotidase was purified 200-fold from pigeon heart. The enzyme (1) had an apparent molecular mass close to 150 kDa, (2) had a neutral pH optimum and hydrolysed a wide range of nucleoside 5'-monophosphates with a 15-fold preference for AMP over IMP, (3) at near-physiological concentrations of AMP was activated by ADP but not by ATP, (4) was inhibited by high Mg2+ concentration and high ionic strength, (5) was weakly inhibited by p-nitrophenol phosphate and Pi, and (6) was non-competitively inhibited more potently by 5'-deoxy-5'-isobutylthioinosine than by 5'-deoxy-5'-isobutylthioadenosine, but not by [alpha,beta-methylene]ADP. The data show that the enzyme is distinct from the ecto-5'-nucleotidase and from the previously purified IMP-specific 5'-nucleotidase. They also predict that the enzyme is activated during ATP catabolism and hence will generate a more-than-linear increase in the adenosine-formation rate in response to an increase in cytosolic AMP concentration.

Intracellular adenosine formation and release to extracellular space was studied in WI-L2-B and SupT1-T lymphoblasts under conditions which induce or do not induce ATP catabolism. Under induced conditions, B lymphoblasts but not T lymphoblasts, release significant amounts of adenosine, which are markedly elevated by adenosine deaminase inhibitors. In T lymphoblasts, under induced conditions, only simultaneous inhibition of both adenosine deaminase activity and adenosine kinase activities resulted in small amounts of adenosine release. Under noninduced conditions, neither B nor T lymphoblasts release adenosine, even in the presence of both adenosine deaminase or adenosine kinase inhibitors. Comparison of B and T cell's enzyme activities involved in adenosine metabolism showed similar activity of AMP deaminase, but the activities of AMP-5'-nucleotidase, adenosine kinase and adenosine deaminase differ significantly. B lymphoblasts release adenosine because of their combination of enzyme activities which produce or utilize adenosine (high AMP-5'-nucleotidase and relatively low adenosine kinase and adenosine deaminase activities). Accelerated ATP degradation in B lymphoblasts proceeds not only via AMP deamination, but also via AMP dephosphorylation into adenosine but its less efficient intracellular utilization results in the release of adenosine from these cells. In contrast, T lymphoblasts release far less adenosine, because they contain relatively low AMP-5'-nucleotidase and high adenosine kinase and adenosine deaminase activities. In T lymphoblasts, AMP formed during ATP degradation is not readily dephosphorylated to adenosine but mainly deaminated to IMP by AMP deaminase. Any adenosine formed intracellularly in T lymphoblasts is likely to be efficiently salvaged back to AMP by an active adenosine kinase. In general, these results may suggest that adenosine can be produced only by selective cells (adenosine producers) whereas other cells with enzyme combination similar to SupT1-T lymphoblasts can not produce significant amounts of adenosine even in stress conditions.
