The pattern of cytidylate and uridylate phosphatase, uridine phosphorylase, cytidine and cytosine deaminase activities has been studied in M. complexus during chick development. The comparison of these enzyme activities with thigh muscles ones has shown that quantitative and temporal changes occur, in parallel with the unusual pre-natal and early post-natal development of M. complexus. The results suggest that during the first period of incubation, UMP might follow the anabolic pathway UMP-UTP, which leads to cytidine nucleotides, while approaching the hatching, the catabolic pathway should prevail. In addition, immediately after hatching, pyrimidine metabolism is especially supported by cytidine nucleotides.

Pyrimidine synthesis in the food spoilage agent Burkholderia cepacia ATCC 25416 was investigated. The five de novo pathway enzymes of pyrimidine biosynthesis were found to be active in B. cepacia ATCC 25416 and growth of this strain on uracil had an effect on the de novo enzyme activities. The in vitro regulation of aspartate transcarbamoylase activity in B. cepacia ATCC 25416 was studies and its activity was inhibited by PP(i), ATP, GTP, CTP and UTP. The enzymes cytidine deaminase, uridine phosphorylase and cytosine deaminase were found to be active in the salvage of pyrimidines in ATCC 25416. Overall, de novo pyrimidine synthesis in B. cepacia ATCC 25416 was regulated at the level of enzyme activity and its pyrimidine salvage enzymes differed from those found in B. cepacia ATCC 17759.
