Changes in ornithine decarboxylase activity and cyclic adenosine-3'-5'-monophosphate concentrations during the cell cycle of synchronized BHK cells. 1977

H Hibasami, and M Tanaka, and J Nagai, and T Ikeda

BHK cells were synchronized by excess thymidine treatment, which resulted in approximately 90% synchrony. The activity of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), the rate-limiting enzyme in polyamine biosynthesis, elevated in early S phase, decreased in G2 + M and G1 phase and then increased during late G1 approximately second round of early S phase. The concentration of cyclic adenosine-3'-5'-monophosphate (cAMP) gradually decreased during S approximately G2 + M phase and then increased during late G1 approximately second round of early S phase, preceding that of ODC activity. The data suggest that ODC activity might be regulated by cellular cAMP level.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009955 Ornithine Decarboxylase A pyridoxal-phosphate protein, believed to be the rate-limiting compound in the biosynthesis of polyamines. It catalyzes the decarboxylation of ornithine to form putrescine, which is then linked to a propylamine moiety of decarboxylated S-adenosylmethionine to form spermidine. Ornithine Carboxy-lyase,Carboxy-lyase, Ornithine,Decarboxylase, Ornithine,Ornithine Carboxy lyase
D002262 Carboxy-Lyases Enzymes that catalyze the addition of a carboxyl group to a compound (carboxylases) or the removal of a carboxyl group from a compound (decarboxylases). EC 4.1.1. Carboxy-Lyase,Decarboxylase,Decarboxylases,Carboxy Lyase,Carboxy Lyases
D002453 Cell Cycle The complex series of phenomena, occurring between the end of one CELL DIVISION and the end of the next, by which cellular material is duplicated and then divided between two daughter cells. The cell cycle includes INTERPHASE, which includes G0 PHASE; G1 PHASE; S PHASE; and G2 PHASE, and CELL DIVISION PHASE.

D000242 Cyclic AMP An adenine nucleotide containing one phosphate group which is esterified to both the 3'- and 5'-positions of the sugar moiety. It is a second messenger and a key intracellular regulator, functioning as a mediator of activity for a number of hormones, including epinephrine, glucagon, and ACTH.
