Angiotensin II has been found to stimulate 5'-adenylic acid deaminase from rabbit skeletal muscle. Stimulation was discernible around 10(-9) M and peak stimulation of about threefold was seen at 10(-7) M, concentrations approximating those required for stimulation of vascular smooth muscle or adrenal glomerulosa cells. Higher concentrations produced less stimulation. Adenosine triphosphate stimulated to the same degree, but a concentration of 10(-5) M was required for maximum stimulation, while maximum stimulation with sodium or potassium required 0.5 M and 0.75 M, respectively. Although the physiologic significance of these observations has not been established, these data suggest an intracellular role for angiotensin II.

The kinetic properties of acyl-coenzyme A (CoA): l-alpha-glycerol-phosphate trans-acylase (EC 2.3.1.15) from Escherichia coli were studied. At 10 C, a temperature at which the reaction was proportional to time and enzyme concentration, the enzyme had an apparent K(m) of 60 mum for l-alpha-glycerol-phosphate. The curve describing the velocity of the reaction as a function of palmitoyl-CoA concentration was sigmoid but the plot of v(-1) versus [S](-3) gave a straight line. A K(m) of about 11 mum was calculated for palmitoyl-CoA. Adenosine triphosphate specifically inhibited the reaction, being a noncompetitive inhibitor in respect to l-alpha-glycerol phosphate. Inhibition only occurred with high concentrations of palmitoyl-CoA, and maximal inhibition was 60%.

Homogeneous adenylate deaminase from snail foot muscle deaminated 5'-AMP, 5'-ADP, 5'-ATP and NADH with similar velocity and affinity to all substrates. At millimolar concentration NAD+ was also deaminated to a comparable extent, but NADP+, NADPH and FAD were not substrates for the snail enzyme. The amount of deaminase activity per g of fresh tissue is 5-10 times greater than in the muscle of any other species studied. The activity of the snail deaminase is regulated by pH, KCl and buffer concentrations, and Pi; however, regulation seems to be very poor in comparison with that of muscle deaminases from other species, specific to 5'-AMP. Snail enzyme appears as the first animal deaminase so far described that has such characteristics. It offers also some opportunities as an analytical tool as a consequence of its very high affinity toward adenylates.
