Studies on the regulation of the biosynthesis of myocardial adenine nucleotides. 1977

H G Zimmer, and E Gerlach

1) Changes in the rates of biosynthesis of adenine nucleotides in rat hearts under various experimental conditions are paralleled by corresponding alterations in the concentration of cyclic AMP. 2) Pentoses and pentitols cause an acceleration of the de novo synthesis of adenine nucleotides in the normal heart and a further amplification of the increase of adenine nucleotide synthesis in isoproterenol-stimulated hearts. 3) The enhancement of de novo synthesis of adenine and nucleotides induced by isoproterenol as well as by pentoses and pentitols appears to be causally related to a greater availability of 5-phos-phoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate.
