Fluctuations in nucleoside uptake and binding of the inhibitor of nucleoside transport, nitrobenzylthioinosine, during the replication cycle of HeLa cells.
Binding of the potent nucleoside transport inhibitor 6-[(4-nitrobenzyl)thio]-9-beta-D-ribofuranosylpurine (NBMPR) and rates of uptake of several nucleosides were examined at 4-hr intervals during the replication cycle of HeLa S3 cells. Monolayer cultures of synchronous cells, obtained by mitotic detachment, were assayed for high-affinity binding of NBMPR and for rates of uptake of thymidine, ur...
متن کاملExpression of high levels of nitrobenzylthioinosine-sensitive nucleoside transport in cultured human choriocarcinoma (BeWo) cells.
We have examined binding of [3H]nitrobenzylthioinosine (NBMPR) and influx of [3H]thymidine in adherent cultures of human choriocarcinoma (BeWo) cells and, for comparison, cervical-carcinoma (HeLa) cells. Specific association of NBMPR with BeWo cells at 22 degrees C required 1.5 h to reach an equilibrium between free and bound ligand, whereas association with HeLa cells required 20-30 min. Scatc...
متن کاملUridine binding and transportability determinants of human concentrative nucleoside transporters.
Human concentrative nucleoside transporters 1, 2, and 3 (hCNT1, hCNT2, and hCNT3) exhibit different functional characteristics, and a better understanding of their permeant selectivities is critical for development of nucleoside analog drugs with optimal pharmacokinetic properties. In this study, the sensitivity of a high-throughput yeast expression system used previously for hCNT1 and hCNT3 wa...
متن کاملEffects of phorbol ester on tyrosine hydroxylase phosphorylation and activation in cultured bovine adrenal chromaffin cells.
The phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) caused phosphorylation of phosphoproteins of 56-kDa which co-migrated with and had identical pI values to subunits of tyrosine hydroxylase. The phosphorylation was closely correlated with an increase of [3H]3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) production which is a reflection of increased tyrosine hydroxylase activity. Only those phorbol...
متن کاملStructural basis of nucleoside and nucleoside drug selectivity by concentrative nucleoside transporters
Concentrative nucleoside transporters (CNTs) are responsible for cellular entry of nucleosides, which serve as precursors to nucleic acids and act as signaling molecules. CNTs also play a crucial role in the uptake of nucleoside-derived drugs, including anticancer and antiviral agents. Understanding how CNTs recognize and import their substrates could not only lead to a better understanding of ...
