1. We have studied purine metabolism in renal failure using high-pressure liquid chromatography to determine metabolite concentrations in erythrocytes and plasma, and microradiochemical assays of enzyme activity in erythrocytes. 2. The mean activities of some of the enzymes involved in purine metabolism were raised in renal failure. Significant elevations of adenylate kinase (EC 2.7.4.3), purin...
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives: Non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms are typical genetic variations that may potentially affect the structure or function of expressed proteins, and therefore could be involved in complex disorders. A computational-based analysis has been done to evaluate the phenotypic effect of no...
In this report, we demonstrate the feasibility of transforming mouse cells deficient in adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (aprt; AMP:pyrophosphate phosphoribosyltransferase, EC 2.4.2.7) to the aprt+ phenotype by means of DNA-mediated gene transfer. Transformation was effected by using unfractionated high molecular weight genomic DNA from Chinese hamster, human, and mouse cells and restriction e...
Several DNA sequence elements are thought to stimulate homologous recombination, illegitimate recombination, or both in mammalian cells. Some are implicated by their recurrence around rearrangement breakpoints, others by their effects on recombination of extrachromosomal plasmids. None of these sequences, however, has been tested on the chromosome in a defined context. In this paper we show how...
Heterozygous mutation of IDH1 in cancers modifies IDH1 enzymatic activity, reprogramming metabolite flux and markedly elevating 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG). Here, we found that 2-HG depletion did not inhibit growth of several IDH1 mutant solid cancer types. To identify other metabolic therapeutic targets, we systematically profiled metabolites in endogenous IDH1 mutant cancer cells after mutant I...
The transplantable murine Dunn osteosarcoma has no detectable hypoxanthine:guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.8) activity. This was established from the tumors directly and from tissue culture cell lines derived from the tumor using a variety of assays: e.g., no [3H]hypoxanthine uptake into tumor or tissue culture cells, no conversion of [3H]hypoxanthine to [3H]IMP by cell extracts fro...
Purpose: We sought to identify predictive biomarkers for a novel nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) inhibitor. Experimental Design:We use a NAMPT inhibitor, GNE-617, to evaluate nicotinic acid rescue status in a panel ofmore than 400 cancer cell lines.Using correlative analysis andRNA interference (RNAi), we identify a specific biomarker for nicotinic acid rescue status. We next det...
We have found that the anaerobic protozoan parasite Giardia lamblia is incapable of de novo pyrimidine metabolism, as shown by its inability to incorporate orotate, bicarbonate, and aspartate into the pyrimidine nucleotide pool. Results from high performance liquid chromatography of pyrimidine and pyrimidine nucleoside pulse-labeled nucleotide pools and enzyme assays suggest that the parasite s...
A deficiency of adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (A-PRTase) is described in four members in three generations of one family. A-PRTase is coded by an autosome and the mutants described in this report are heterozygotes for this enzyme defect. The level of enzyme activity in these heterozygotes was inappropriately low, ranging from 21 to 37% of normal rather than the expected 50% of normal. Exami...
The levels of leukocyte adenine phosphoribosyltransferase and of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (H-GPRT) were compared in normal control subjects, patients with acute leukemia in remission, and patients with acute leukemia in exacerbation. Significant (p < 0.025) elevations of both the adenine phosphoribsosyltransferase and H-GPRT activities occurred in individuals with leukemia...
