Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relative contributions of AMP-specific cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase and ecto-5'-nucleotidase to cardiac adenosine production and its regulation by ADP and Mg2+. 5'-Nucleotidase activity was measured spectrophotometrically in the total homogenate, the 150,000-g supernatant fraction (cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase), and the membrane pellet fraction (ecto-5'-nucleotidase) of dog left ventricles. Increasing [MgCl2] over a range from 0 to 6 mmol/l increased 5'-nucleotidase activity in both the supernatant and pellet; only cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase exhibited an

Abstract:
5′-Nucleotidases play an important role in the metabolism of nucleosides; for example, the hydrolysis of AMP generates adenosine, which can modulate a variety of cellular functions. We have used the membrane-bound AMPase from chicken gizzard and a secreted form of these enzymes to analyse their modification by the substrate analogue 5′-p-fluorosulphonylbenzoyladenosine (5′-FSBA). 5′-FSBA irreversibly inactivates 5′-nucleotidases by means of covalent modification of the proteins. ATP, a competitive inhibitor of chicken gizzard and snake-venom 5′-nucleotidase, abolished the inactivation by 5′-FS

5′-Nucleotidase, an integral glycoprotein enzyme of the lymphocyte plasma membrane, is inhibited cooperatively by the lectin concanavalin A. Because divalent succinyl-concanavalin A is a poor enzyme inhibitor, both binding and lectin-induced cross-linking of 5′-nucleotidase may be necessary for inhibition. Succinyl-concanavalin A does not compete with concanavalin A for binding to the enzyme; however, maleyl-concanavalin A, another poor inhibitor, competes effectively with the parent lectin. Thus, maleyl-concanavalin A binds to the same site as concanavalin A but causes little inhibition, wher

5′-Nucleotidase isolated from the electric organ of the electric ray (Torpedo marmorata) has a molecular mass of 62 kDa and, on two-dimensional electrophoresis, separates into up to 13 isoforms within a pI range of 5.9-6.7. The N-terminal sequence data show a 71% identity over 17 amino acids with that previously published for the rat liver enzyme. All forms of 5′-nucleotidase are recognized by the HNK-1 monoclonal antibody. HNK-1 immunoreactivity is found at the surface of the Schwann-cell processes covering the synaptic terminals and in this respect corresponds to that of 5′-nucleotidase in t

In this work, the inhibition of the ecto-ATPase activities and promastigote growth of Leishmania amazonensis by CrATP was characterized. Furthermore, this compound was used to investigate the role of ecto-nucleotidase in the interaction of L. amazonensis with resident peritoneal macrophages obtained from BALB/c mice.

Seven residues from conserved sequence motifs implicated in the catalytic and metal-ion-binding sites of E. coli 5′-nucleotidase (Asp41, His43, Asp84, His117, Glu118, His217 and His252) were selected for modification using site-directed mutagenesis of the cloned ushA gene.

Both enzymes show only partial overlap in their substrate specificities. So, it was decided to investigate the catalytic behavior of chimeras bearing the UshA catalytic domain and the CpdB specificity domain, or vice versa. UshA_Ndom–CpdB_Cdom and CpdB
