A deoxyadenylate kinase activity associated with polynucleotide phosphorylase from Micrococcus luteus.
We report here the presence of two enzymatic activities associated with highly purified preparations of polynucleotide phosphorylase from Micrococcus luteus. The first, a nuclease activity, which is not separated from the phosphorylase on hydroxylapatite, may be due to substitution of H2O for phosphate in the phosphorolysis reaction. The second activity, a deoxyadenylate kinase, the bulk of whi...
متن کاملPolynucleotide phosphorylase of Micrococcus lysodeiktpcus. III. The apparent arsenolysis of nucleoside diphosphates by polynucleotide phosphorylase.
The enzyme, polynucleotide phosphorylase, catalyzes the polymerization of nucleoside diphosphates to polyribonucleotides with the formation of inorganic orthophosphate (1, 2). The reaction is readily reversible, and the phosphorolysis of polyribonucleotides has been studied extensively (3-6). Several recent reviews (7-9) afford extensive summaries of the literature. In the accompanying paper (l...
متن کاملBinding of Dissolved Strontium by Micrococcus luteus.
Resting cells of Micrococcus luteus have been shown to remove strontium (Sr) from dilute aqueous solutions of SrCl(2) at pH 7. Loadings of 25 mg of Sr per g of cell dry weight were achieved by cells exposed to a solution containing 50 ppm (mg/liter) of Sr. Sr binding occurred in the absence of nutrients and did not require metabolic activity. Initial binding was quite rapid (<0.5 h), although a...
متن کاملDNA-relaxing enzyme from Micrococcus luteus.
A DNA-relaxing enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of superhelical DNA to a non-superhelical covalently closed form has been purified from Micrococcus luteus to near homogeneity by two chromatographic steps. The enzyme is a single polypeptide chain. As determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gel filtration on Sephadex G 150, the molecular weight is 115,00...
متن کاملFrom polynucleotide phosphorylase to neurobiology.
In the fall of 1944, I enrolled at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The student body numbered about 700 and the choice of faculties was somewhat limited.My hopewas to study medicine, but the plans to open a medical school were still at the drawing board stage. I therefore chose to study chemistry with biochemistry and bacteriology as minor subjects, which I thought I would need later if I we...
