Non-Enzymatic Oligomerization of 3’, 5’ Cyclic AMP

Non-Enzymatic Oligomerization of 3’, 5’ Cyclic AMP

Recent studies illustrate that short oligonucleotide sequences can be easily produced from nucleotide precursors in a template-free non-enzymatic way under dehydrating conditions, i.e. using essentially dry materials. Here we report that 3',5' cyclic AMP may also serve as a substrate of the reaction, which proceeds under moderate conditions yet with a lower efficiency than the previously report...

Title 3 ' : 5 ' - Cyclic AMP Binding Proteins

3':5'-cyclic AMP-dependent 3':5'-cyclic GMP accumulation in Dictyostelium discoideum.

Suspensions of 3':5'-cyclic AMP (cAMP)-sensitive cells of Dictyostelium discoideum responded to a cAMP pulse with increased 3':5'-cyclic GMP (cGMP) levels. Under the assay conditions used (2 x 10(8) cells per ml in 10 mM phosphate buffer, pH 6.0) cAMP (5 x 10(-8) M final concentration) increased cGMP levels from 1 pmol per 10(7) cells to 7 pmol per 10(7) cells in 10 sec and basal levels were re...

Enzymatic radioiodination of succinyl cyclic AMP tyrosine methyl ester by lactoperoxidase and radioimmunoassay for cyclic AMP.

A highly specific and simple radioimmunoassay for cyclic AMP with a sensitivity of 0.04 picomoles/tube has been developed according to the method of Steiner et al., using 125I-succinyl cyclic AMP tyrosine methyl ester as a tracer. The tracer with higher immunoactivities could be simply and constantly prepared by an enzymatic iodination procedure utilizing lactoperoxidase, radioactive iodide and...

Immunohistochemical localization of 3': 5'-cyclic AMP and 3': 5'-cyclic GMP in rat liver, intestine, and testis.

Cyclic GMP and cyclic AMP have been localized in rat liver, small intestine, and testis by a fluorescent immunocytochemical procedure. In liver, cyclic AMP is distributed along sinusoids predominantly, and increased fluorescence is seen sinusoidal areas after glucagon administration. Cyclic GMP is located in nuclear elements and on the plasma membranes of hepatocytes. In jejunum, cyclic AMP is ...
