Feedback Inhibition of Thymidine Kinase by Thymidine Triphosphate.
That the regulation of cell division and deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis is subject to some kind of chemical control in higher organisms is widely accepted (2-5). Davidson (2) has suggested that deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis takes place at critical concentrations of the deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates and that these compounds are components of a homeostatic mechanism. There are now at least...

متن کاملThymidine Triphosphate Synthesis in Tetrahymena
The amount of thymidine-H(3) converted to thymidine-H(3) monophosphate in 30 min formed the basis for assays of thymidine kinase in cell extracts from Tetrahymena pyriformis. The optimal concentration of adenosine triphosphate is lower than that required by other cell types. Thymidine triphosphate does not exercise any feedback control of the enzyme. Other deoxyprimidine nucleotides were tested...
متن کاملHuman Thymidine Kinase
Cytosolic thymidine kinase (EC 2.7.1.21) has been purified 5200-fold to apparent homogeneity from normal human placenta. The purification includes sequential affinity chromatography on blue-Sepharose and a thymidine column. The molecular weight of the enzyme determined by gel filtration and sucrose density ultracentrifugation is 92,000. The subunit molecular weight is 44,000, suggesting that t...
متن کاملA single amino acid substitution abolishes feedback inhibition of vaccinia virus thymidine kinase.
Exploitation of differences in the substrate specificity of the type I and type II thymidine kinases (EC 2.7.1.21, TK) expressed by the Herpesviridae and Poxviridae (and human cells), respectively, has lead to the development of effective antiherpetic drugs such as acyclovir and gancyclovir. Analysis of type I TK protein sequences reveals a consensus sequence which corresponds to domain IV of t...
