In conditions of glucose starvation, the maximum velocity of the mediated transport of nonmetabolized and metabolized amino acids, uridine, adenosine, and sucrose across the plasma membrane is stimulated by a factor of two by the addition of 1 mM adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate to Schizosaccharomyces pombe 972h- wild strain, to the glucose-super-repressed and derepressed mutants COB5 and COB6, and to Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain IL 216-IA. The mediated uptake of 2-D-deoxyglucose and the apparently nonmediated uptake of guanosine are not stimulated by the cyclic nucleotide. N6,O2'-Dibutyryl adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate is also efficient, whereas theophylline, guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate, 5'-AMP, ATP, and adenosine are ineffective. The cellular ATP content of glycerol-grown S. pombe COB5 is about 10 nmol per mg of protein and is not decreased by further incubation in the starvation medium. The addition of 100 mM glucose markedly enhances transport without any increase of the cellular ATP content. The addition of antimycin A or Dio-9 decreases markedly both cellular ATP content and transport. The addition of 2.5 mM glucose to antimycin A-containing medium restores both transport is not necessarily of mitochondrial origin. The uptake of 2-D-deoxyglucose is unaffected by the respiratory inhibitors. Stimulation of uptake by cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate occurs only in glucose-deprived cells. The addition of 10 mM glucose elicits the disappearance of the stimulation and prevents the 30% decrease of the cellular adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate content produced by glucose starvation. Adenosine 3':5'-'monophosphate does not enhance the steady state ATP level but requires cellular ATP produced either by endogenous respiration or, in the absence of respiration blocked by antimycin A, by further addition of 2.5 mM glucose. Stimulation of active uptake by adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate does not require protein synthesis because the addition of cycloheximide or anisomycin does not prevent the stimulation of L-leucine uptake. In the absence of respiration, Dio-9, and ATPase inhibitor, suppresses instantaneously the cellular ejection of protons as well as the uptake of uridine and amino acids. It abolishes also the adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate-stimulated transport. In the presence of antimycin A, specific mitochondrial ATPase inhibitors such as venruricidin A do not inhibit metabolite uptakes and their stimulation by adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate. These results suggest that in these conditions, the target of Dio-9 is not the mitochondrial ATPase but a plasma membrane proton-translocating function generating an electrochemical gradient required for active transport. That adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate enhances the Dio-9-sensitive proton extrusion supports the view that the cyclic nucleotide might modulate the plasma membrane ATPase.

1. Extracts of several plant species contained nucleoside-AMP phosphotransferase activity. The ratio of activity with thymidine to that with uridine as nucleoside substrate was essentially constant, both between species and throughout plant development. Evidence is presented that the total thymidine-AMP phosphotransferase activity of the leaves of Asplenium nidus (bird's-nest fern) and of Helianthus tuberosus (Jerusalem artichoke) increases during maturation. 2. Thymidine-AMP phosphotransferase was purified 22-fold from a very rich source of this activity, extracts of A. nidus. 3. A broad specificity towards both nucleoside and nucleoside 5'-monophosphate substrates is displayed by this preparation, and the evidence suggests that all could be due to a single enzyme. 4. Nucleosides that act as substrates will also inhibit phosphotransfer to other nucleosides, with Ki values close to the corresponding Km values found when utilized as substrates. 5. Ca2+-activated ATP phosphohydrolase was separated from the phosphotransferase by differential complexing to Blue Dextran in the presence of urea, whereas an AMP phosphohydrolase activity was closely associated with thymidine-AMP phosphotransferase through all separation techniques used. 6. Metal ions did not activate either of the latter two activities, and 1,10-phenanthroline was found to inhibit the phosphotransferase. 7. Km values for AMP for the respective activities were 0.11 mM (thymidine phosphotransferase) and 0.20 mM (AMP phosphohydrolase) and for thymidine (phosphotransferase only) 0.88 mM. 8. 3':5'-Cyclic AMP was found to inhibit both phosphotransferase and AMP phosphohydrolase activities, with Ki values of 0.056 mM and 0.15 mM respectively. It is suggested that this inhibitor would be of value in revealing the existence of thymidine kinase in plant extracts with high thymidine phosphotransferase activity.

The alkaloid camptothecin uncouples the growth and adivision of chick embryo cells. At a moderate dose (0.5 microgram/ml) it inhibits the incorporation of thymidine but not of uridine and leucine and the cell protein content increases and reaches twice that of control after 4 days of treatment. Twelve hours after addition of the drug, the activities per cell of the mitochondrial enzymes poly A hydrolase (EC 3.1. 4.21), cytochrome c oxidase (EC 1.9.3.1), and succinate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.99.1) are greater than that of the control and keep increasing for at least 96 H. The increase in the activities of the mitochondrial enzymes precede that of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase (EC 1.6.2.4) and cytidine triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.15), which are microsomal and plasma membranes enzymes respectively. Actinomycin D (0.01 microgram/ml) also inhibits the multiplication of the chick cells and the synthesis of DNA. The protein content of the actinomycin D treated cells decreases to 70% of the control by day 2. Nevertheless, the activities of the mitochondrial enzymes increase over that of the control but to a smaller extent that with camptothecin. The activities of the enzymes of the other organelles are not stimulated. Camptothecin at a higher dose (5.0 microgram/ml) induces effects similar to those of actinomycin D.

Using tunicamycin, we have investigated the role of glycoproteins in membrane transport. Tunicamycin is a glucosamine-containing antibiotic that specifically inhibits dolichol pyrophosphate-mediated glycosylation of asparaginyl residues of glycoproteins. Inhibition of protein glycosylation in chick embryo fibroblasts by tunicamycin or other inhibitors of glycosylation resulted in defective transport of glucose, uridine, and amino acid analogs (alpha-aminoisobutyrate and cycloleucine). The defect in glucose transport is accompanied by decreased glucose metabolism, as determined by rates of CO2 and lactate production. In contrast, tunicamycin treatment did not affect other membrane-associated processes, such as secretion of fibronectin and procollagen, uptake of glucose by passive diffusion, Na+/K+ ATPase and adenylate cyclase activities, or stimulation of adenylate cyclase by prostaglandin and cholera toxin. Two glucose/glycosylation-regulated membrane proteins with apparent subunit molecular weights of 95,000 and 75,000 were induced by tunicamycin treatment. Our results indicate that glycoprotein glycosylation is required for membrane transport.

The transport processes for uridine, deoxycytidine, uracil, adenine and hypoxanthine require an energy source and are active under anaerobic or aerobic conditions. Inhibitory effects of cyanide, arsenate, carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone, 2,4-dinitrophenol and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide on the transport of uridine and deoxycytidine differ from the corresponding effects on the transport of uracil, adenine and hypoxanthine. The nature of these inhibitory effects supports the conclusion that uridine and deoxycytidine transport is energized either by electron transport or by ATP hydrolysis via (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase. The transport or uracil, adenine and hypoxanthine is dependent upon ATP or some high energy phosphate derivative of ATP, but is independent of (Ca2+ + Mg+)-ATPase and electron transport. Uptake of the ribose moiety of uridine by a mutant of Escherichia coli B, which lacks the transport system for uracil and intact uridine, is neither stimulated by energy sources nor inhibited by various inhibitors of energy metabolism under either aerobic or anaerobic conditions.

After the administration of cycloheximide (2 mg/kg) the utilization of [2(-14C)]orotic acid for the synthesis of pyrimidine nucleotides of acid-soluble extracts of the liver is not affected for about 7 h. The specific activities of uridine and cytidine components are increased later on, and this increase is higher in the case of cytidine components. Analogous changes undergoes the specific activity of RNA pyrimidine nucleotides. The increased utilization of labeled orotic acid for the synthesis of cytidine nucleotides can be observed also in the kidney and in the small intestine. The enhanced degree of labeling of cytidine nucleotides in vivo cannot be correlated with the activity of cytidine triphosphate synthetase (EC 6.3.4.2) of liver cytosol estimated in vitro. The amination of UTP is suppressed at later intervals after the application of cycloheximide. The same holds true for the activity of uridine phosphorylase (EC 2.4.2.3),5'-nucleotidase (EC 3.1.3.5) ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) and of liver cytosol. The activity of uridine kinase (EC 2.7.1.48) is increased when tested both with uridine and cytidine as substrates. Cytidine deaminase activity (EC 3.5.4.5) raises markedly 3--5 h after the administration of drug; later on it decreases again.

In the cells of RH, SPEV and HEp-2 lines irradiated with 6.5 mm radiowaves of 1 mW/cm2 flux density the following phenomena were established: activation of succinate dehydrogenase and ATPase; reduction of cytochrome oxidase, NAD- and NADP-diaphorase, acid and alkaline phosphatase activities; repression of 3H-thymidine incorporation in DNA and of 3H-uridine incorporation in RNA; violation of ultrastructure; suppression of cellular proliferation; decrease of mitotic activity; occurrence of pathological forms of mitosis.

The synthesis is described of a spin-labeled analog of ATP, 2',3'-O-(1-oxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidylidene)adenosine 5'-triphosphate (SL-ATP). The spin-label moiety is attached by two bonds to the ribose ring as a spiroketal and hence has restricted conformational mobility relative to the ribose moiety of ATP. The synthesis proceeds via an acid-catalyzed addition of adenosine 5'-monophosphate to 1-acetoxy-4-methoxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine in acetonitrile. The spiroketal product is pyrophosphorylated, and alkaline hydrolysis with concomitant aerial oxidation gives the required product. The spin-labeled moiety probably takes up two rapidly interconverting conformations with respect to the ribose ring on the basis of the 1H NMR spectra of its precursors and related uridine derivatives [Alessi et al. (1991) J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans.1,2243-2247]. SL-ATP is a substrate for myosin and actomyosin with similar kinetic parameters to ATP during triphosphatase activity. SL-ATP supports muscle contraction and permits relaxation of permeabilized rabbit skeletal muscle fibers. SL-ADP is a substrate for yeast 3-phosphoglycerate kinase, thus permitting regeneration of SL-ATP from SL-ADP within muscle fibers. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies of SL-ADP bound to myosin filaments and to myofibrils show a degree of nanosecond motion independent of that of the protein, which may be due to conformational flexibility of the ribose moiety of ATP bound to myosin's active site. This nanosecond motion is more restricted in myofibrils than in myosin filaments, suggesting that the binding of actin affects the ribose binding site in myosin. EPR studies on SL-ADP bound to rigor cross-bridges in muscle fiber bundles showed the nucleotide to be highly oriented with respect to the fiber axis.

Exposure of Clone 9 cells, a "nontransformed" rat liver cell line, to 10(-8) M dexamethasone resulted at 3 h in 1.8 +/- 0.2- and 40 +/- 5-fold increases in mRNA alpha 1 and mRNA beta 1 content, respectively, an effect that was not mimicked by 10(-8) M aldosterone. The increments in mRNA alpha 1 and mRNA beta 1 abundances in total cell RNA were half-maximal at 5 x 10(-9) M dexamethasone and persisted for more than 24 h. Na,K-ATPase activity, however, increased only slightly (by 9%) at 24 h. The induction of mRNA beta 1 by dexamethasone was not prevented by the presence of cycloheximide. mRNA beta 1 abundance increased earlier in the nuclear RNA pool (becoming apparent within 45 min) than in the cytoplasmic RNA pool, consistent with a precursor-product relationship. Moreover, putative pre-mRNA beta 1 bands of approximately 4,600 and approximately 12,000 nucleotides accumulated in the nRNA pool after 1 h of exposure to dexamethasone. Incubation in the presence of dexamethasone for 3 h enhanced the incorporation of [3H]uridine into total cell mRNA alpha 1 and mRNA beta 1 by 1.3- and 12-fold, respectively. In nuclear run-on assays, however, transcription of mRNA alpha 1 and mRNA beta 1 was not altered after 30 min of exposure to 10(-8) M dexamethasone. The abundance of mRNA beta 1 in rat liver also increased markedly (greater than 30-fold) in rats treated with the hormone for 6 h. We conclude that dexamethasone causes an induction of Na,K-ATPase subunit mRNAs, an effect that is markedly greater for mRNA beta 1 than for mRNA alpha 1. The increases in subunit mRNA content, however, are associated with, at most, a small increase in Na,K-ATPase activity, suggesting that the increments in mRNA abundances, especially that of mRNA beta 1, do not play a determining role in the regulation of Na,K-ATPase activity in these cells.

The functional importance of membrane hyperpolarization through activation of ATP-sensitive K channels, or activation of the Na,K-ATPase, was investigated for acetylcholine (ACh)-induced relaxation of the rabbit isolated middle cerebral artery (MCA) precontracted with uridine triphosphate. Incubation with glibenclamide (1 microM), a known blocker of ATP-sensitive K channels, or precontraction with a high concentration of KCl (50 mM) had no effect on ACh-induced relaxation. Similarly, inhibition of the Na,K-ATPase with ouabain (10 microM) or incubation with a potassium-free solution had either no or only a small effect on ACh-induced relaxation. In contrast, NG-nitro-L-arginine (NOLAG) (1 to 10 microM), a structural analogue of L-arginine and an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthesis, produced concentration-dependent although apparently noncompetitive inhibition of ACh-induced relaxation. This inhibition was partially reversed by application of L-arginine (100 microM), a putative precursor for nitric oxide synthesis. It is concluded that membrane hyperpolarization induced by activation of ATP-sensitive K channels or Na,K-ATPase does not play a major functional role in ACh-induced relaxation of rabbit MCA. The potent inhibitory actions of NOLAG would suggest that the major mechanism of ACh-induced relaxation is by release of nitric oxide as in other cerebral and peripheral arteries.
