چکیده

The function of 5'-nucleotidase in nucleoside uptake from AMP was investigated in human lymphocytes by comparing the transport in cells containing this enzyme (5'N+) with that in cells deficient in the activity (5'N-). The rate of adenosine and Pi uptake from AMP was 3.9-fold greater in the 5'N+ then in the 5'N- lymphocytes. There was no difference in transport between these cells when incubated with adenosine or Pi. These results indicate that phosphorylytic cleavage of AMP by 5'-nucleotidase is necessary for the uptake of the nucleotide and Pi moieties by the human lymphocyte.

MODULATION OF MITOCHONDRIAL UPTAKE OF A DENOSINE BY NITROBENZYLTHIOINOSINE

In this study the uptake and metabolism of adenosine by mitochondria has been investigated. Incubation of CEM cells mitochondria preparation with [3H] -adenosine showed substantial uptake and metabolism of adenosine. Adenosine was both anabolized to AMP, ADP and ATP, and also catabolized to inosine. The highest concentration of metabolites in extracted mitochondria was due to AMP. The mito...

Role of membrane-bound 5'-nucleotidase in nucleotide uptake by the moderate halophile Vibrio costicola.

Intact cells of Vibrio costicola hydrolyzed ATP, ADP, and AMP. The membrane-bound 5'-nucleotidase (C. Bengis-Garber and D. J. Kushner, J. Bacteriol. 146:24-32, 1981) was solely responsible for these activities, as shown by experiments with anti-5'-nucleotidase serum and with the ATP analog, adenosine 5'-(beta gamma-imido)-diphosphate. Fresh cell suspensions rapidly accumulated 8-14C-labeled ade...

Ecto-5'-nucleotidase does not catalyze vectorial production of adenosine in the perfused rat liver.

From the results obtained in perfused rat hearts, Frick and Lowenstein proposed that ecto-5'-nucleotidase catalyzes a vectorial reaction in which AMP hydrolysis is accompanied by transfer of adenosine across the cell membrane (Frick, G.P., and Lowenstein, J.M. (1978) J. Biol. Chem. 253, 1240-1244). We have examined by the use of perfused rat livers, the uptake mechanism of adenosine generated f...

Consequences of the Lack of CD73 and Prostatic Acid Phosphatase in the Lymphoid Organs

CD73, ecto-5'-nucleotidase, is the key enzyme catalyzing the conversion of extracellular AMP to adenosine that controls vascular permeability and immunosuppression. Also prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) possesses ecto-5'-nucleotidase/AMPase activity and is present in leukocytes. However, its role related to immune system is unknown. Therefore, we analyzed enzymatic activities and leukocyte subt...
