Abstract
Inorganic polyphosphate (poly-P) consists of just a chain of phosphate groups linked by high energy bonds. It is found in every organism and is implicated in a wide variety of cellular processes (e.g. phosphate storage, blood coagulation, and pathogenicity). Its metabolism has been studied mainly in bacteria while remaining largely uncharacterized in eukaryotes. It has recently been suggested that poly-P metabolism is connected to that of highly phosphorylated inositol species (inositol pyrophosphates). Inositol pyrophosphates are molecules in which phosphate groups outnumber carbon atoms. Like poly-P they contain high energy bonds and play important roles in cell signaling. Here, we show that budding yeast mutants unable to produce inositol pyrophosphates have undetectable levels of poly-P. Our results suggest a prominent metabolic parallel between these two highly phosphorylated molecules. More importantly, we demonstrate that DDP1, encoding diadenosine and diphosphoinositol phosphohydrolase, possesses a robust poly-P endopolyphosphohydrolase activity. In addition, we prove that this is an evolutionarily conserved feature because mammalian Nudix hydrolase family members, the three Ddp1 homologues in human cells (DIPP1, DIPP2, and DIPP3), are also capable of degrading poly-P.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to see whether the compound adenosine 5'-tetraphosphate (Ap(4)) is active in the central nervous system by examining its effect on isolated rat brain synaptic terminals. Ap(4) proved to be more resistant to ecto-enzymatic hydrolysis than adenosine triphosphate (ATP), showing only 2% hydrolysis after a 2-min incubation, compared to 75% for ATP. In addition, Ap(4) was able to produce concentration-dependent increases in intracellular Ca(2+) when applied extracellularly. This action was dependent upon the presence of extracellular calcium. Ap(4) acts through ionotropic ATP receptors (P2X receptors) and not through diadenosine polyphosphate receptors, since ATP abolished the response elicited by Ap(4) whereas Ap(5)A did not. Ap(4), ATP and ATP-gamma-S were of similar potency (EC(50) approximately 20 microM) while 2MeSATP, alpha,beta-meATP and ADP-beta-S possessed slightly lower potency (EC(50) approximately 50 microM). The P2-purinoceptor antagonists suramin and PPADS blocked the Ap(4) effect. The IC(50) values for these compounds were 35.5 and 7.8 microM respectively. Diinosine polyphosphates and inosine tetraphosphate inhibited the response elicited by Ap(4) with IC(50) values that varied between approximately 40 and 50 microM. These results show that Ap(4) is as good an agonist as ATP on synaptosomal P2X receptors, being more resistant to extracellular hydrolysis by ecto-nucleotidases.

Abstract
This review concerns enzymes that can degrade nucleoside 5'-tetra- and pentaphosphates (p(4)N and p(5)N) and those that can degrade various dinucleoside polyphosphates (Np(3-6)N'). Most of these enzymes are hydrolases, and they occur in all types of organisms. Certain fungi and protozoa also possess specific Np(n)N' phosphorylases. Specific p(4)N hydrolases have been demonstrated in mammals and in plants. In yeast, p(4)N and p(5)N are hydrolyzed by exopolyphosphatases. Among other hydrolases that can degrade these minor mononucleotides are phosphatases, apyrase, and (asymmetrical) Np(4)N' hydrolase, as well as the nonspecific adenylate deaminase. Np(n)N's are good substrates for Type I phosphodiesterases and nucleotide pyrophosphatases, and diadenosine polyphosphates are easily deaminated to diinosine polyphosphates by nonspecific adenylate deaminases. Specific Np(3)N' hydrolases occur in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Interestingly, the human fragile histidine triad (Fhit) tumor suppressor protein appears to be a typical Np(3)N' hydrolase. Among the specific Np(4)N' hydrolases are asymmetrically cleaving ones, which are typical of higher eukaryotes, and symmetrically cleaving enzymes found in Physarum polycephalum and in many bacteria. An enzyme that hydrolyzes both diadenosine tetraphosphate and diadenosine triphosphate has been found in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Its amino acid sequence is similar to that of the human Fhit/Np(3)N' hydrolase. Very recently, a typical (asymmetrical) Np(4)N' hydrolase has been demonstrated for the first time in a bacterium-the pathogenic Bartonella bacilliformis. Another novelty is the discovery of diadenosine 5', 5"'-P(1),P 6-hexaphosphate hydrolases in budding and fission yeasts and in mammalian cells. These enzymes and the (asymmetrical) Np(4)N' hydrolases have the amino acid motif typical of the MutT (or Nudix hydrolase) family. In contrast, the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Ap(4)A/Ap(3)A hydrolase, the human Fhit protein, and the yeast Np(n)N' phosphorylases belong to a superfamily GAFH, which includes the histidine triad proteins.

Abstract
2',3'-Dideoxynucleosides (ddN) and their derivatives are currently used as antiretroviral compounds. Their active agents are the corresponding 2',3'-dideoxynucleoside triphosphates (ddNTPs) generated inside the cell by host kinases. Dinucleoside tetraphosphates (Np4Ns) are molecules of interest in metabolic regulation; their synthesis in vitro can be catalyzed by firefly luciferase. The relative synthesis of diadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P4-tetraphosphate or adenosine(5')tetraphospho(5')adenosine (Ap4A) from ATP is about 100-fold faster than that of di-2',3'-dideoxyadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P4-tetraphosphate or 2',3'-dideoxyadenosine (5')tetraphospho (5')-2',3'-dideoxyadenosine (ddAp4ddA) from ddATP. In the presence of ATPgammaS and ddATP the yield of adenosine(5')tetraphospo(5')-2',3'-dideoxyadenosine (Ap4ddA) was similar to that attained for Ap4A in the presence of ATP. The findings of this work indicate that the presence of a 3'-hydroxyl group is essential for the formation of the luciferase-luciferin-AMP complex, and explains the very low yield of ddAp4ddA in the presence of luciferase, luciferin and ddATP. The absence of 3'-hydroxyl groups in ddAp4ddA greatly hindered their hydrolysis by snake venom phosphodiesterase, asymmetrical dinucleoside tetraphosphatase and by a purified membrane preparation from rat liver. The possibility of using di-2',3'-dideoxynucleoside tetraphosphate (ddNp4ddN) or nucleoside(5')tetraphospho(5')-2',3'-dideoxynucleoside (Np4ddN) as a source of the active retroviral agent ddNTP, for example in HIV infection, is outlined.

Abstract
Diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P4-tetraphosphate (Ap4A) pyrophosphohydrolase is the enzyme responsible for reducing intracellular levels of the stress-responsive nucleotide diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P4-tetraphosphate. In order to gain more information on the relationships between the enzymes hydrolysing diadenosine polyphosphates in different eukaryotes, the Ap4A hydrolase and a corresponding cDNA have been isolated from pig small intestinal mucosa by standard procedures. The enzyme is a typical mammalian Ap4A hydrolase (Km = 0.8 microM) being sensitive to inhibition by fluoride (Ki = 24 microM) and adenosine 5'-tetraphosphate (Ki = 10 nM) and yielding ATP and AMP as products. A low Km Ap4A hydrolase (Km = 0.3 microM) was also isolated from rabbit small intestinal mucosa. These enzymes differ from the rat intestinal mucosal hydrolase, which has much higher values of Km for Ap4A and Ki for adenosine 5'-tetraphosphate. A cDNA encoding the pig enzyme was isolated from a pig ileum cDNA library. The derived amino acid sequence of the 16.8 kDa gene product shows 88% identity and 96% similarity to that of the human enzyme. The sequence has the same modification of the MutT motif found in the human enzyme in which a threonine residue replaces a hydrophobic amino acid. Sequences comparisons among eukaryotic diadenosine polyphosphate hydrolases and phosphorylases reveal two blocks of amino acid similarity, including a motif, Z[AD]Gx[ED]AGQ, which may be involved in polyphosphate binding by the hydrolases, and an invariant histidine residue that may be involved in catalysis. These sequence similarities may have arisen by convergent evolution.

Abstract
The enzyme diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P4-tetraphosphate (Ap4A) pyrophosphohydrolase has been purified to homogeneity from firefly lanterns. It is a single polypeptide of M(r) 16,000 with a Km for Ap4A of 1.9 microM and kcat = 3.6 s-1. It is inhibited competitively by adenosine 5'-tetraphosphate (Ki = 7.5 nM) and non-competitively by fluoride ions (Ki = 50 microM). The specific activity of the enzyme in crude extracts of at least 20 milliunits/mg protein is 10-100 times higher than in any other eukaryote so far examined. Interestingly, firefly luciferase is known to synthesize Ap4A and related adenine-containing dinucleoside tetraphosphates in vitro. The high activity of Ap4A hydrolase in lanterns may be related to this ability and could be relevant to the use of the luciferase gene as a reporter gene.

Abstract
An asymmetrically-cleaving diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P4-tetraphosphate hydrolase (Ap4A-->ATP+AMP) is present in all higher eukaryotes and contributes to the regulation of the intracellular level of the alarmone nucleotide diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P4-tetraphosphate (Ap4A). This enzyme has previously been isolated from unfractionated human blood cells. The aim of this report is to determine the contribution made by different blood cell types as part of our study of the roles of Ap4A as an intra- and extracellular signalling molecule. Ap4A hydrolase was partially purified from isolated human erythrocytes, leukocytes and platelets by high performance gel permeation chromatography and characterized by kinetic analysis and by probing immunoblots with an antibody raised against the human placental enzyme. Ap4A hydrolase was clearly present in all three cell types. Each enzyme comprised a single polypeptide of M(r) 19,200. The erythrocyte and platelet enzymes had a Km for Ap4A of 0.70 +/- 0.05 microM (n = 3) while the Km for the leukocyte enzyme was 1.50 +/- 0.20 microM (n = 3). All three enzymes showed substrate inhibition above 10 microM Ap4A. The specific activity of the enzyme in erythrocytes was 0.067 U/10(6) cells, 15-fold lower than that in leukocytes and platelets. However, the erythrocyte hydrolase accounted for 97% of the total activity of unfractionated blood cells (336 U out of 346 U/ml blood). The study shows that leukocytes, platelets and erythrocytes all contain Ap4A hydrolase activity. The last observation is of particular interest given the reported absence of Ap4A from enucleated erythrocytes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Diadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P4-tetraphosphate (Ap4A) phosphorylase and Ap4A pyrophosphohydrolase activities have been purified from extracts of the green alga Scenedesmus obliquus. Both activities were also detected in Scenedesmus brasiliensis, Scenedesmus quadricauda and in Chlorella vulgaris. This is the first time that both types of enzyme have been detected in the same species. The Ap4A phosphorylase has a molecular mass of 46-48 kDa, a broad pH optimum between 7.5 and 9.5, and requires a divalent ion for activity (Mg2+ > Co2+ > Ca2+ = Mn2+ = Cd2+ > Zn2+). It degrades substrates with at least four phosphate groups and always produces a nucleoside 5'-diphosphate product. The Km values for Ap4A and Pi are 5.3 microM and 160 microM, respectively, and kcat. = 1.8 s-1. Arsenate, vanadate, molybdate, chromate and tungstate can substitute for phosphate. The enzyme also catalyses Ap4A synthesis (Keq. = [Ap4A] [Pi]/[ATP][ADP] = 9 x 10(-4)) and ADP arsenolysis. The Ap4A hydrolase has a molecular mass of 26-28 kDa, an alkaline pH optimum of 8.8-9.8, and prefers Zn2+ as the stimulatory ion (Zn2+ > Mg2+ > Mn2+ > Co2+ > Cd2+). It degrades substrates with at least four phosphate groups, having a slight preference for Ap5A, and always produces a nucleoside 5'-triphosphate product. The Km value for Ap4A is 6.6 microM and kcat. = 1.3 s-1. It is inhibited competitively by adenosine 5'-tetraphosphate (Ki = 0.67 microM) and non-competitively by fluoride (Ki = 150 microM). A 50-54 kDa dinucleoside 5',5'''-P1,P3-triphosphate (Ap3A) pyrophosphohydrolase was also detected in S. obliquus, S. quadricauda and C. vulgaris. The corresponding enzyme in S. brasiliensis (> 100 kDa) may be a dimer

Abstract
The biochemical properties of Artemia ras proteins (p21) have been studied after immunoprecipitation with the monoclonal antibody Y13-259. The ras products bind GTP and GDP, and have GTPase activity. Artemia p21 was unable to hydrolyze Gp4G, although this dinucleotide exhibits high affinity for the protein. Our results demonstrate that the protein(s) recognized by the Y13-259 antibody in this crustacean behave as typical mammalian ras p21s.

Abstract
Rat liver and brain differ in the distribution pattern of the total hydrolytic activity on diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P3-triphosphate (Ap3A) between the soluble and particulate fractions. The Ap3A-hydrolase activity in both the soluble and particulate liver fractions and in the brain soluble fraction had been previously studied in detail. We report now on the brain particulate fraction which, unlike liver, showed a low unspecific phosphodiesterase I-like (PDEaseI, EC 3.1.4.1) activity relative to the specific dinucleoside triphosphatase (Ap3Aase, EC 3.6.1.29). Two PDEaseI-like forms (PDEaseI-A and PDEaseI-B), with different apparent Mrs and kinetic properties, and two Ap3Aases (Ap3Aase-alpha and Ap3Aase-beta) were solubilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 from the particulate fraction. Ap3Aase-alpha resembled the cytosolic Ap3Aase (Ap3Aase-c), a known situation in liver. Comparative to Ap3Aase-alpha, Ap3Aase-beta showed a slightly higher Km (35 vs. 15 micron) and lower isoelectric point (5.25 vs. 5.45); Ap3Aase-beta was absent from the soluble fraction, and its recovery was unaffected by proteinase inhibitors, strongly arguing for distinct soluble and particulate turnover pathways for dinucleoside polyphosphates.

Abstract
Starting from a partially purified dinucleoside tetraphosphatase (Np4Nase; EC 3.6.1.17), we developed an affinity elution purification protocol involving the strong competitive inhibitor adenosine 5'-tetraphosphate. Np4Nase bound to Cibacron Blue F3G-A-Sepharose 4B or to Reactive Blue 2-Sepharose CL-6B was specifically eluted with 10 microM adenosine 5'-tetraphosphate and 5 mM MgCl2, but not by either of them separately. The final Np4Nase preparation was homogeneous by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by Coomassie blue or silver staining. The protein band showed an apparent 18 kDa molecular mass. The specific activity of the homogeneous Np4Nase was about 150 units/mg, meaning a 45,000-fold increase and a 10% recovery with respect to the crude extract. After preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, protein visualization with KCl, fragmentation of the gel lane, and extraction, all the renatured Np4Nase activity was found associated to the 18 kDa band. The renatured enzyme showed the same Km value for diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P4-tetraphosphate as the partially purified or the native homogeneous Np4Nase.

Abstract
Fluoride acts as a noncompetitive, strong inhibitor of (asymmetrical) Ap4A hydrolases (EC 3.6.1.17). The Ki values estimated for the enzymes isolated from seeds of some higher plants (yellow lupin, sunflower and marrow) are in the range of 2-3 microM and I50 for the hydrolase from a mammalian tissue (beef liver) is 20 microM. The anion, up to 25 mM, does not affect the following other enzymes which are able to degrade the bis(5'-nucleosidyl)-oligophosphates: Escherichia coli (symmetrical) Ap4A hydrolase (EC 3.6.1.41), yeast Ap4A phosphorylase (EC 2.7.7.53), yellow lupin Ap3A hydrolase (EC 3.6.1.29) and phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.1). None of halogenic anions but fluoride affects the activity of (asymmetrical) Ap4A hydrolases. Usefulness of the fluoride effect for the in vivo studies on the Ap4A metabolism is shortly discussed.

Abstract
The P1P4-bis(5'-nucleosidyl) tetraphosphate asymmetrical-pyrophosphohydrolase from encysted embryos of the brine shrimp Artemia has been purified over 11,000-fold to homogeneity. Anion-exchange chromatography resolves two major species with very similar properties. The enzyme is a single polypeptide of Mr 17,600 and is maximally active at pH 8.4 and 2 mM-Mg2+. It is inhibited by Ca2+ (IC50 = 0.9 mM with 2 mM-Mg2+) but not by Zn2+ ions. It preferentially hydrolyses P1P4-bis(5'-nucleosidyl) tetraphosphates, e.g. P1P4-bis(5'-adenosyl) tetraphosphate (Ap4A) (kcat. = 12.7 s-1; Km = 33 microM) and P1P4-bis(5'-guanosyl) tetraphosphate (Gp4G) (kcat. = 6.2 s-1; Km = 5 microM). With adenosine 5'-P1-tetraphospho-P4-5"'-guanosine (Ap4G) as substrate, there is a 4.5-fold preference for AMP and GTP as products and biphasic reaction kinetics are observed giving Km values of 4.7 microM and 34 microM, and corresponding rate constants of 6.5 s-1 and 11.9 s-1. The net rate constant for Ap4G hydrolysis is 7.6 s-1. The enzyme will also hydrolyse nucleotides with more than four phosphate groups, e.g. Ap5G, Ap6A and Gp5G are hydrolysed at 25%, 18% and 10% of the rate of Ap4A respectively. An NTP is always one of the products. Ap2A and Gp2G are not hydrolysed, while Ap3A and Gp3G are very poor substrates. When the enzyme is partially purified from embryos and larvae at different stages of development by sedimentation through a sucrose density gradient, its activity increases 3-fold during the first 12 h of pre-emergence development. This is followed by a slow decline during subsequent larval development. The similarity of this enzyme to other asymmetrical-pyrophosphohydrolases suggests that it did not evolve specifically to degrade the large yolk platelet store of Gp4G which is found in Artemia embryos, but that it probably serves the same general function in bis(5'-nucleosidyl) oligophosphate metabolism as in other cells.

Abstract
1. An enzyme has been isolated from Drosophila embryos which specifically hydrolyzes dinucleoside tetraphosphates to the corresponding nucleoside tri- and tetraphosphates, with Km values around 4 microM. 2. Nucleoside mono-, di- and triphosphates are competitive inhibitors with K1 values i the 0.01 mM range. 3. The inhibition is particularly strong by adenosine tetraphosphate (Ki = 10 nM). 4. The enzyme is maximally active at pH 7.5 and is quite stable at acid pH. 5. The enzyme requires divalent cations for activity: Co(2+) much greater than [corrected] Mn(2+) Mg(2+) x Co(2+) stimulated about 90-fold at 6 mM. 6. The specific stimulation by Co(2+) has been described before, but at lower concentrations, for the enzyme of procaryotes which splits diadenosine tetraphosphate symmetrically. Zn(2+) and Ca(2+) are inhibitors of the Drosophila enzyme. Co(2+) is also inhibitor in the presence of Mg(2+). 7. The Drosophila enzyme has essential sulphydryl group(s) and a molecular weight of 26,000. 8. Diadenosine tetraphosphatase is present in mature oocytes and increases after fertilization to reach a peak 1.5 hr later. 9. From this time to 3.5 hr the activity decreased to remain at a plateau until the end of embryogenesis. 10. The profile of activity is compatible with its involvement in the regulation of nuclear division.

Abstract
Diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap4A) and diadenosine pentaphosphate (Ap5A) have been identified in bovine adrenal medullary tissue using an HPLC method. The values obtained were 0.1 +/- 0.05 mumol/g of tissue for both compounds. The subcellular fraction where Ap4A and Ap5A were present in the highest concentration was chromaffin granules: 32 nmol/mg of protein for both compounds (approximately 6 mM intragranularly). This value was 30 times higher than in the cytosolic fraction. Enzymatic degradation of Ap4A and Ap5A, isolated from chromaffin granules, with phosphodiesterase produces AMP as the final product. The Ap4A and Ap5A obtained from this tissue were potent inhibitors of adenosine kinase. Their Ki values relative to adenosine were 0.3 and 2 microM for Ap4A and Ap5A, respectively. The cytosolic fraction also contains enzymatic activities that degrade Ap4A as well as Ap5A. These activities were measured by an HPLC method; the observed Km values were 10.5 +/- 0.5 and 13 +/- 1 microM for Ap4A and Ap5A, respectively.

Abstract
The formation of a complex between Zn(II) and beta-D-fructose 2,6-bisphosphate was shown because the latter compound: activated bis(5'-guanosyl)tetraphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.17) and dinucleoside triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.29) only to the extent that they could be inhibited by Zn(II); increased the consumption of Zn(II) necessary to titrate to an end point a solution of the metallochromic indicator eriochrome black T; coeluted with Zn(II) in a gel filtration column capable of resolving them if unbound. Neither of those effects was shown by D-fructose 1,6-bisphosphate under the same conditions.

Abstract
Two new enzymes that hydrolyze diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap4A) have been isolated from the acellular slime mold Physarum polycephalum. Both enzymes are different from the Physarum Ap4A symmetrical pyrophosphohydrolase previously described on the basis of their substrate specificities, reaction products, molecular weights, and divalent cation requirements. One enzyme is a nucleotide pyrophosphatase that asymmetrically hydrolyzes Ap4A to AMP and ATP. This enzyme hydrolyzes several mono- and dinucleotides with the corresponding nucleotide monophosphate as one of the products. The percentage hydrolysis of NAD+, Ap4A, and Ap4G, each at 10 microM, was 100, 56, and 51, respectively. A divalent cation is required for activity, with Ca2+ yielding 20-30 times greater activity than Mg2+ or Mn2+. Values of Km for Ap4A and Vmax are similar to the corresponding values for Ap4A symmetrical pyrophosphohydrolase. The second enzyme is a phosphodiesterase I with broad substrate reactivity. This enzyme also asymmetrically hydrolyzes Ap4A, but it does not hydrolyze NAD+. Activity of the phosphodiesterase I is stimulated by divalent cations, with Ca2+ being 50-60 times more stimulatory than Mg2+ or Mn2+. The apparent molecular weights of the nucleotide pyrophosphatase and phosphodiesterase are 184,000 and 45,000, respectively. In contrast, the Ap4A pyrophosphohydrolase hydrolyzes Ap4A to ADP, is inhibited by Ca2+ and other divalent cations, and has an apparent molecular weight of 26,000 as previously reported.

Abstract
Diadenosine-5',5'''-P1,P4-tetraphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase (diadenosinetetraphosphatase) from Escherichia coli strain EM20031 has been purified 5000-fold from 4 kg of wet cells. It produces 2.4 mg of homogeneous enzyme with a yield of 3.1%. The enzyme activity in the reaction of ADP production from Ap4A is 250 s-1 [37 degrees C, 50 mM tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane, pH 7.8, 50 microM Ap4A, 0.5 microM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), and 50 microM CoCl2]. The enzyme is a single polypeptide chain of Mr 33K, as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis and high-performance gel permeation chromatography. Dinucleoside polyphosphates are substrates provided they contain more than two phosphates (Ap4A, Ap4G, Ap4C, Gp4G, Ap3A, Ap3G, Ap3C, Gp3G, Gp3C, Ap5A, Ap6A, and dAp4dA are substrates; Ap2A, NAD, and NADP are not). Among the products, a nucleoside diphosphate is always formed. ATP, GTP, CTP, UTP, dATP, dGTP, dCTP, and dTTP are not substrates; Ap4 is. Addition of Co2+ (50 microM) to the reaction buffer containing 0.5 microM EDTA strongly stimulates Ap4A hydrolysis (stimulation 2500-fold). With 50 microM MnCl2, the stimulation is 900-fold. Ca2+, Fe2+, and Mg2+ have no effect. The Km for Ap4A is 22 microM with Co2+ and 12 microM with Mn2+. The added metals have similar effects on the hydrolysis of Ap3A into ADP + AMP. However, in the latter case, the stimulation by Co2+ is small, and the maximum stimulation brought by Mn2+ is 9 times that brought by Co2+. Exposure of the enzyme to Zn2+ (5 microM), prior to the assay or within the reaction mixture containing Co2+, causes a marked inhibition of Ap4A hydrolysis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
A new procedure was described for assay of diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap4A) hydrolases based on boronate chromatography. Potential reaction products, AMP, ADP, and ATP, of the hydrolysis of Ap4A were separated from residual substrate by chromatography on a boronate-derivatized cation-exchange resin, Bio-Rex 70. Separation was achieved by changing the concentrations of ethanol and ammonium acetate in the elution buffers. Picomole masses of products were detectable, blank dpm values were less than 0.5% of the total dpm, and auxiliary enzymes were not required. The procedure was specifically described for Ap4A pyrophosphohydrolase from Physarum polycephalum. The assay is generally applicable for dinucleoside polyphosphate hydrolases which hydrolyze other substrates such as Ap3A, Ap5A, Ap6A, and Gp4G. Dinucleotide polyphosphates are readily purified by chromatography on this boronate resin in a volatile buffer. Tes, Tricine, and Tris buffers significantly interfered with the chromatography of ATP.

Abstract
Dinucleosidetriphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.29) is present in both the 37,000 g rat liver supernatant and precipitate (50 mU/g each fraction). These two activities show matching molecular weights, isoelectric points, substrate specificities, Km values, bivalent cation requirements and inhibition by zinc (II). The particulate triphosphatase and a residual dinucleosidetetraphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.17) are solubilized by freeze-thawing or by Triton X-100. Detergent treatment also extracts an unspecific phosphodiesterase I activity (EC 3.1.4.1) which also splits dinucleoside polyphosphates. The above findings suggest the occurrence of cytosolic and particulate degradative pathways for dinucleoside polyphosphates.

Abstract
A simple method for measuring the cellular content of diadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P4-tetraphosphate (Ap4A) in cultured mammalian cells is described. Ap4A was rapidly extracted by dissolving cell monolayers using 0.1 N NaOH. It was separated from the bulk of cellular components in a single step by selective adsorption to a highly specific boronate affinity resin. Subpicomole amounts were quantified by a luciferin-luciferase bioluminescence assay performed in the presence of alkaline phosphatase and venom phosphodiesterase. The selectivity of this assay for Ap4A in cultured mouse cells was established by high-performance liquid chromatography. This method allows the routine measurement of subpicomole amounts of Ap4A derived from a single dish of cells.

Abstract
Diadenosine 5',5'"-P1,P4-tetraphosphate (Ap4A) has been detected in cysts and developing embryos of the brine shrimp Artemia in amounts 10(4)-10(6) times lower than that of the guanine analogue, Gp4G. The unexpectedly high level of Ap4A in dormant cysts of 2.37 pmol/10(6) cells can be reduced to 0.03 pmol/10(6) cells by decapsulation and storage in saturated NaCl. When development is reinitiated, the Ap4A content of the decapsulated embryos undergoes a rapid 125 -fold increase, reaching a maximum of 3.79 pmol/10(6) cells at the point of emergence when DNA replication begins. If replication is delayed by hypoxia, the Ap4A level is adjusted in order to reach the same maximum value when replication finally begins. As replication proceeds, the level of Ap4A declines again. Unlike mammalian cells, Ap4A in Artemia is less metabolically labile than ATP. These results are consistent with the suggested role of Ap4A in the initiation of DNA synthesis.

Abstract
Rat brain P1,P3-bis(5'-adenosyl)-triphosphate adenylohydrolase (dinucleosidetriphosphatase, EC 3.6.1.29) was purified 1000-fold. The enzyme hydrolyzed diadenosine and diguanosine triphosphates (Km values 14 and 40 microM, and relative V 100 and 40, respectively) to the corresponding nucleoside di and monophosphates. Dixanthosine triphosphate was hydrolyzed at a residual rate. Diadenosine di and tetraphosphates, NAD+, and artificial phosphodiesterase substrates were not hydrolyzed. Bivalent cations [Mg(II), Mn(II) or Ca(II)] were required for activity, but Zn(II) was a competitive inhibitor (Ki = 5 microM). The optimum pH value was about 7.5. A molecular mass of 34 kdalton (gel filtration) and an isoelectric point of 5.5 (chromatofocusing) were found.

Abstract
A contaminant compound has been isolated from commercial samples of CTP by ion-exchange chromatography on a Dowex-1 column. It has been characterized as cytidine 5'-tetraphosphate from its ultraviolet spectrum, labile and total phosphate content, and periodate consumption. It is present in proportions from 0.3 to 3.9%, apparently regardless of the method of preparation, age of sample, or commericial source of CTP.

Abstract
Almost complete inhibition of partially purified dinucleoside-tetraphosphatase (EC 3. 6. 1. 17) was observed with 5 microM Zn(II). The inhibition was reversed by EDTA and was time dependent, reaching a maximum after 5 min of incubation at 37 degrees C. Zn(II) behaved as a non-competitive inhibitor of the reaction, leaving unaltered the Km value for the enzyme towards diadenosine tetraphosphate. The cellular level of this compound may be directly related to the Zn(II) content since, besides the inhibition here described, Zn(II) has been reported by others to be an activator of the synthesis of diadenosine tetraphosphate by sheep liver lysyl- and phenylalanyl-t RNA synthetases.
