Changes in histone phosphorylation and associated early metabolic events in pig lymphocyte cultures transformed by phytohaemagglutinin or 6-N,2'-O-dibutyryladenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate. 1971

M E Cross, and M G Ord

1. Pig lymphocytes were transformed by dibutyryl cyclic AMP (6-N,2'-O-dibutyryladenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate) at concentrations of 0.01-0.1mum. The pattern of incorporation of label from [5-(3)H]uridine and [6-(3)H]thymidine into RNA and DNA respectively was identical with that obtained with unpurified phytohaemagglutinin. 2. Chlorpromazine (0.1mum) prevented the stimulation of [5-(3)H]uridine incorporation into RNA by phytohaemagglutinin, but only slightly lowered the lymphocyte response to dibutyryl cyclic AMP. 3. An increase in the size and specific radioactivity of the intracellular P(i) pool was found immediately after stimulation by both phytohaemagglutinin and dibutyryl cyclic AMP. This was followed after some 30min by a rise in the specific radioactivity and concentration of ATP. 4. There was an immediate increase in the specific radioactivity of phosphate groups of histones; by about 45min after stimulation only the histones remaining after extraction of histone fraction F1 continued to incorporate (32)P from [(32)P]P(i). 5. Histone kinase activity increased in the first 30min after stimulation; subsequently histone F1 kinase activity decreased, but activity with the other histones as substrate continued to increase for a further 30min. Kinase activation was effected by cyclic AMP (adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate). 6. Histone phosphatase activity behaved similarly to that of the kinase.

D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.

D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS. Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell

D010759 Phosphorus Isotopes Stable phosphorus atoms that have the same atomic number as the element phosphorus, but differ in atomic weight. P-31 is a stable phosphorus isotope. Isotopes, Phosphorus
D010770 Phosphotransferases A rather large group of enzymes comprising not only those transferring phosphate but also diphosphate, nucleotidyl residues, and others. These have also been subdivided according to the acceptor group. (From Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992) EC 2.7.

D002746 Chlorpromazine The prototypical phenothiazine antipsychotic drug. Like the other drugs in this class chlorpromazine's antipsychotic actions are thought to be due to long-term adaptation by the brain to blocking DOPAMINE RECEPTORS. Chlorpromazine has several other actions and therapeutic uses, including as an antiemetic and in the treatment of intractable hiccup.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D005782 Gels Colloids with a solid continuous phase and liquid as the dispersed phase; gels may be unstable when, due to temperature or other cause, the solid phase liquefies; the resulting colloid is called a sol.
D006657 Histones Small chromosomal proteins (approx 12-20 kD) possessing an open, unfolded structure and attached to the DNA in cell nuclei by ionic linkages. Classification into the various types (designated histone I, histone II, etc.) is based on the relative amounts of arginine and lysine in each.
