Intact cells of Vibrio costicola hydrolyzed ATP, ADP, and AMP. The membrane-bound 5'-nucleotidase (C. Bengis-Garber and D. J. Kushner, J. Bacteriol. 146:24-32, 1981) was solely responsible for these activities, as shown by experiments with anti-5'-nucleotidase serum and with the ATP analog, adenosine 5'-(beta gamma-imido)-diphosphate. Fresh cell suspensions rapidly accumulated 8-14C-labeled adenine 5'-nucleotides and adenosine. The uptake of ATP, ADP, and AMP (but not the adenosine uptake) was inhibited by adenosine 5'-(beta gamma-imido)-diphosphate similarly to the inhibition of the 5'-nucleotidase. Furthermore, the uptake of nucleotides had Mg2+ requirements similar to those of the 5'-nucleotidase. The uptake of ATP was competitively inhibited by unlabeled adenosine and vice versa; inhibition of the adenosine uptake by ATP occurred only in the presence of Mg2+. These experiments indicated that nucleotides were dephosphorylated to adenosine before uptake. The hydrolysis of [alpha-32P]ATP as well as the uptake of free adenosine followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The kinetics of uptake of ATP, ADP, and AMP also each appeared to be a saturable carrier-mediated transport. The kinetic properties of the uptake of ATP were compared with those of the ATP hydrolysis and the uptake of adenosine. It was concluded that the adenosine moiety of ATP was taken up via a specific adenosine transport system after dephosphorylation by the 5'-nucleotidase.

The adenosine kinase activity present in a soluble preparation from rat liver was investigated using formycin A (FoA), a fluorescent analog of adenosine as the phosphoryl acceptor and ATP as the donor. Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (h.p.l.c.) was used to separate substrate from product, and the progress of the phosphorylation reaction was followed by monitoring fluorometrically the amount of formycin 5'-monophosphate (FoMP), and the AMP analog, that was formed. The results showed that while FoMP was formed during the reaction indicating that an adenosine kinase activity was present, both formycin 5'-di- and triphosphate (FoDP and FoTP respectively), the corresponding analogs of ADP and ATP, were also formed, suggesting than an adenylate kinase activity was present. This result was confirmed with FoMP as the substrate and showing the formation of FoDP and FoTP. Other experiments carried out with FoMP as the substrate revealed the formation of FoA. Taken together, these results indicated that a 5'-nucleotidase activity as well as an adenylate kinase was present. Using this analog and h.p.l.c., it has been possible to demonstrate for the first time in an in vitro system the complete salvage of a nucleoside to the triphosphate level.

The contribution of plasma membrane 5'-nucleotidase (E.C. 3.1.3.5) to intracellular purine degradation and release was evaluated in cultured human lymphoblasts. B-lymphoblasts and T-lymphoblasts are characterized by high and low levels of plasma membrane 5'-nucleotidase activity, respectively. After radiolabeling of the cellular adenine nucleotide pools with [8-14C]adenine, deoxyglucose-induced purine nucleotide degradation resulted in a 2-2.5 times greater release of cellular radioactivity from the B-lymphoblasts than from the T-lymphoblasts. Specific inhibition of plasma membrane 5'-nucleotidase with 50 microM alpha, beta-methylene adenosine diphosphate (AMPCP) did not decrease purine release during deoxyglucose-induced nucleotide degradation. Similarly, the inhibition of B-lymphoblast membrane 5-nucleotidase did not alter the incorporation of [8-14C]adenine into the nucleotide pool. Therefore, to explain the relatively high release of purine nucleotide degradation products in B-lymphoblasts when compared with T-lymphoblasts, cytoplasmic 5'-nucleotidase activity was investigated in these cell lines. B-lymphoblasts have seven times more cytoplasmic 5'-nucleotidase activity for dAMP and two to three times more activity for other purine nucleoside 5'-monophosphates than do T-lymphoblasts at pH 7.4. Membrane and cytoplasmic nucleotidase activities are produced by different enzymes that can be distinguished by differences in pH optima, Michaelis constants for purine substrates, divalent cation requirements, and susceptibilities to AMPCP inhibition. The data suggest that plasma membrane 5'-nucleotidase hydrolyzes extracellular nucleoside 5'-monophosphates only. Cytoplasmic 5'-nucleotidase most likely regulates the degradation of intracellular nucleoside 5'-monophosphates and may be responsible for the increased purine release observed in B-lymphoblasts.

Bovine intestinal 5'-nucleotidase has been partially purified and characterized for comparison with two other phosphohydrolases from the same tissue, alkaline phosphatase and 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase, which are closely related structurally and mechanistically. Kinetic studies with a variety of nucleotides and phosphonate analogs show that, although 5'-nucleotidase is a monoesterase like alkaline phosphatase, it more closely resembles 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase in its high affinity and specificity for nucleotide binding. 5'-Nucleotidase is bound very strongly by an affinity column containing a bound phosphonate analog of ADP but is not bound by an affinity column containing a non nucleotide phosphonate which selectively binds alkaline phosphatase. 5'-Nucleotidase is strongly bound by immobilized antibodies prepared against 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase, and is less strongly bound by immobilized antibodies prepared against alkaline phosphatase. We conclude that 5'-nucleotidase is structurally more similar to 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase than to another monoesterase, alkaline phosphatase.

The properties and subcellular localization of adenosine diphosphatase (ADPase) activity in smooth muscle cells cultured from pig aortas have been investigated. The pH optimum of ADPase activity was 7.3 and the apparent Km for ADP was 10.3 microM. ADPase activity was inhibited completely by EDTA and was restored by the addition of divalent cations. The enzyme activity was not inhibited by 2-glycerophosphate, a substrate for non-specific phosphatases, nor by levamisole, a specific inhibitor of alkaline phosphatase. Smooth muscle cells were homogenized and a post-nuclear supernatant was applied to a sucrose density gradient in a Beaufay automatic zonal rotor. The distribution of ADPase activity in the density gradient was similar to that of 5'-nucleotidase activity, a marker enzyme for the plasma membrane, and distinct from the distributions of the marker enzymes for the other organelles. When the cells were homogenized in the presence of digitonin, an agent which binds to cholesterol and increases the equilibrium density of the plasma membrane, the modal equilibrium densities of ADPase activity and of 5'-nucleotidase activity were increased to similar extents, thus confirming the plasma membrane localization of ADPase activity.

Adenosine production in intact rat polymorphonuclear leucocytes was studied during 2-deoxyglucose-induced ATP catabolism. A cell-free system containing the cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase (EC 3.1.3.5) as the only phosphohydrolase was also studied. The rate of adenosine formation in both intact cells and the cell-free system showed a similar dependence on energy charge (([ATP] + 1/2 [ADP]/([ATP] + [ADP] + [AMP])), being maximal only at values close to 0.8. Sufficient cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase was present in intact cells to explain the observed rate of adenosine formation. We conclude that the cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase is responsible for adenosine production in rat polymorphonuclear leucocytes. This mechanism provides a direct biochemical link between the energy status of a cell and the rate of adenosine formation.

By means of DEAE-Sephadex A-50 column chromatography and gel filtrations on Sephadex G-75, Sephacryl S-300 and Sephadex G-100, successively, a potent 5'-nucleotidase was purified from Trimeresurus gramineus venom. The venom 5'-nucleotidase is a single polypeptide chain and homogeneous as judged by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It is a thermostable glycoprotein consisting of 589 amino acid residues. Its molecular weight was estimated to be 74,000 by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. It possessed nucleotidase activities toward adenosine monophosphate and adenosine diphosphate. The specific activities toward AMP and ADP were 504 +/- 28 and 101 +/- 8 micrograms Pi/min per mg, respectively. Pre-incubation of this venom's 5'-nucleotidase with ADP resulted in the cleavage of ADP and formation of adenosine. The 5'-nucleotidase activity was inhibited by EDTA. Both Zn2+ and Co2+/- reversed the inhibitory effect of EDTA. In rabbit platelet-rich plasma, it inhibited completely the ADP (2 x 10(-5) g/ml)-induced platelet aggregation. It also inhibited the platelet aggregations induced by sodium arachidonate (100 microM), collagen (20 micrograms/ml) and ionophore A-23187 (5 microM)-induced platelet aggregations were not affected significantly by this venom 5'-nucleotidase. In ADP-refractory platelet-rich plasma, the venom 5'-nucleotidase inhibited the platelet aggregations induced by collagen (20 micrograms/ml) or sodium arachidonate (100 microM). The venom 5'-nucleotidase showed a more pronounced inhibitory effect on sodium arachidonate-induced platelet aggregation than creatine phosphate/creatine phosphokinase and apyrase did. No lactate dehydrogenase was released by this venom 5'-nucleotidase, indicating that no platelet lysis occurred. It is concluded that removal of ADP, which is released by these platelet aggregation inducers, and the subsequent accumulation of adenosine are responsible for the inhibitory effect of the venom 5'-nucleotidase on platelet aggregations.

We have investigated the stereoselectivity of ectonucleotidases (nucleoside triphosphatase, EC 3.6.1.15; nucleoside diphosphatase, EC 3.6.1.6; 5'-nucleotidase, EC 3.1.3.5) on pig aortic endothelial cells using two classes of nucleotide analogue. In experiments with nucleotide enantiomers in which the natural D-ribofuranosyl moiety is replaced by an L-ribofuranosyl moiety, the rate of catabolism of 100 microM-L-ATP was one-fifth that of D-ATP, the rate of catabolism of 100 microM-L-ADP was one-fifteenth that of D-ADP and there was no detectable catabolism of 100 microM-L-AMP. Each of the L-enantiomers inhibited, apparently competitively, the catabolism of the corresponding D-enantiomer; Ki values were approx. 0.6 mM, 1.0 mM and 3.9 mM for L-ATP, L-ADP and L-AMP respectively. Experiments with adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-imido]triphosphate and with D- and L-enantiomers of adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-methylene]triphosphate revealed modest ectopyrophosphatase activity, undetectable in experiments with natural nucleotides, which was also stereoselective. Use of phosphorothioate nucleotide analogues demonstrated that ATP catabolism was virtually stereospecific with respect to the geometry of the thiol group substituted on the beta-phosphate: the Rp isomer was degraded, whereas there was little or no breakdown of the Sp isomer. ADP catabolism was also stereospecific with respect to the geometry of the thiol group substituted on the alpha-phosphate: the Sp isomer but not the Rp isomer was degraded. The geometry of thiol-group substitution on the alpha-phosphate had no effect on ATP catabolism to ADP. There was no detectable catabolism of analogues with thiol-group substitution on the terminal phosphate. Each of the phosphorothioate analogues that was catabolized broke down at a rate similar to that of the natural nucleotide from which it was derived. These results demonstrate that the ectonucleotidases on pig aortic endothelial cells exhibit a high degree of stereoselectivity, characteristic for each enzyme, both with respect to the ribofuranosyl moiety and to the phosphate side chain.

5'-Nucleotidase (5'-ribonucleotide phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.5) occurs in bull seminal plasma in multiple forms. The heterogeneity does not reflect the existence of true isoenzymes, but is due to the association of the enzyme with particulate material and to molecular aggregation phenomena. Addition of detergents to native bull seminal plasma prevents molecular aggregation, solubilizes the particulate form of the enzyme, and results in the appearance of a single molecular form of the enzyme. Enzyme purification can be achieved after three chromatographic steps which involve negative adsorption of 5'-nucleotidase activity on DEAE-Sephadex A-50 followed by two affinity chromatographies on concanavalin A-Sepharose 4B and ADP-agarose. The enzyme appears to be a dimeric glycoprotein. Some properties of the enzyme, including substrate specificity and the effects of hydrogen ion concentration and of various divalent cations, are reported.

The effects of degradative enzymes and enzyme inhibitors were examined on the inhibitory actions of adenosine, AMP and ATP on atrial muscle and on the cholinergic responses of the ileum to transmural stimulation of the guinea-pig, in order to determine whether ATP responses are mediated by its breakdown products, AMP and adenosine. In both the atria and the ileum, adenosine deaminase reduced responses to ATP, although when combined with 5'-nucleotidase it had no further effect. In the atrium, the 5'-nucleotidase inhibitor, alpha,beta-methylene ADP (APCP), had no effect on its own, but prevented the potentiating effect of the adenosine deaminase inhibitor erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl) adenine (EHNA) on responses to ATP. In the ileum, EHNA had no effect, but APCP potentiated responses to ATP. The enzyme 5'-AMP deaminase was shown to have a non-specific inhibitory effect on purine responses in both preparations. It is concluded for both preparations, that (1) the inhibitory responses to ATP are partly mediated by AMP and adenosine following the ectoenzymatic breakdown of ATP, and partly mediated by ATP itself, and (2) that AMP as well as adenosine can act directly on P1-purinoceptors. It is suggested that of the two breakdown products of ATP, AMP and adenosine, a larger proportion of the response is mediated by AMP in the ileum, whereas adenosine is the major mediator in the atrium.
