Affinity labelling of 5'-nucleotidases with 5'-p-fluorosulphonylbenzoyladenosine.
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 irreve...
متن کاملAdenosine as a metabolic regulator of tissue function: production of adenosine by cytoplasmic 5'-nucleotidases.
Adenosine is a product of complete dephosphorylation of adenine nucleotides which takes place in various compartments of the cell. This nucleoside is a significant signal molecule engaged in regulation of physiology and modulation of the function of numerous cell types (i.e. neurons, platelets, neutrophils, mast cells and smooth muscle cells in bronchi and vasculature, myocytes etc.). As part a...
متن کامل5'-nucleotidases of Naja Naja Karachiensis Snake Venom: Their Determination, Toxicities and Remedial Approach by Natural Inhibitors (medicinal Plants).
Present study was carried out regarding enzymatic assay for 5'-nucleotidase enzymes present in snake venom Naja naja karachiensis and to evaluate twenty eight medicinal plants as their antidotes. Elevated enzymatic activities i.e., 119, 183, 262 and 335 U/mL were observed in 10, 20, 30 and 40 µg of crude venom, respectively, in dose dependent manner. Among various plant extracts only two (Bauhi...
متن کاملEctophosphodiesterase/nucleotide phosphohydrolase (Enpp) nucleotidases: cloning, conservation and developmental restriction.
Ectonucleotidase proteins occupy a central role in purine signalling regulation by sequentially hydrolysing ATP to ADP and to adenosine. The ENPP ( or PDNP) gene family, which encodes ectophosphodiesterase/nucleotide phosphohydrolases, is a subfamily of these enzymes, which consists of 7 members in mammals. These proteins catalyse the generation of bioactive lipids, placing the ENPP enzymes as ...
متن کاملMethanol alters ecto-nucleotidases and acetylcholinesterase in zebrafish brain.
Methanol is a neurotoxic compound that is responsible for serious damage on CNS. Besides being found as an environmental contaminant, this alcohol is also employed as a component of cryoprotector solutions for zebrafish embryos. Here we tested the acute effect of methanol on ecto-nucleotidase (NTPDase, ecto-5'-nucleotidase) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activities in zebrafish brain. After ac...
