Cyclic-nucleotide Phosphodiesterase
Cyclic nucleotides have been implicated in the differentiation and function of the vertebrate retina. In the normal retina of DBA mice, the specific activity of cyclic-nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE), with cyclic-AMP as the substrate (cAMP-PDE), increases eightfold between the 6th and 20th postnatal day. Kinetic analysis of retinae from newborn mice reveals a PDE with a single Michaelis cons...
متن کاملRole of 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase in the renal 2',3'-cAMP-adenosine pathway.
Energy depletion increases the renal production of 2',3'-cAMP (a positional isomer of 3',5'-cAMP that opens mitochondrial permeability transition pores) and 2',3'-cAMP is converted to 2'-AMP and 3'-AMP, which in turn are metabolized to adenosine. Because the enzymes involved in this "2',3'-cAMP-adenosine pathway" are unknown, we examined whether 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase (CNP...
متن کامل3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase
1. A spectrophotometric assay of 2':3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.37) based on the use of an acid-base indicator and a buffer having identical PKa values is described. The assay is sinmple and rapid; it was particularly convenient for monitoring the enzyme activity at vat :ous stages of purification. 2. Several proteinases were examined for their ability to solubilize 2':3...
متن کاملRegulation of cyclic nucleotide concentrations in photoreceptors: an ATP-dependent stimulation of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase by light.
Regulation of cyclic nucleotide concentrations in rod outer segments (Rana pipiens) has been further examined. The present studies show that illumination markedly diminishes the concentration of cyclic nucleotides in suspensions of photoreceptor membranes, but the locus of regulation is cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.c) (light-stimulated) and not adenylate cyclase. There is a mar...
متن کاملAnalysis of the kinetics of cyclic AMP hydrolysis by the cyclic GMP-stimulated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase.
The kinetics of cAMP hydrolysis by the purified calf liver cGMP-stimulated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase were analyzed in the absence or presence of a number of competitive inhibitors of the methylxanthine type according to a two-site competitive model for allosteric enzymes. Methylxanthines were also classified by graphical analysis of classical competition kinetics at saturating cAMP. T...
