Sulfhydryl Groups, Methylmercury Containing Inactivator, Coenzyme Analogue Nicotinamide-(S-methylmercury-thioinosine) dinucleotide was formed by reaction of nicotin amide-(6-thiopurine) dinucleotide with methylmercury chloride. The compound exhibits coenzyme properties in the test with LDH (Km=1.5 × 10-4 м , Vmax=12500) and LADH (Km=1.7 × 10-4 м, Vmax=27) and inactivates YADH and GAPDH. From incubations with LDH and LADH the mercury containing coenzyme could be regained by column chromatography. The compound seems to be qualified for the X-ray structure analysis of the coenzyme-enzyme complex for some dehyrogenases based on the proportion of the heavy metal.
A new NAD⊕-isomer was prepared, in which the ᴅ-ribose of the adenosine moiety was sub stituted by the enantiomeric ʟ-ribose. As compared to nicotinamide-adenine-dinucleotide (NAD⊕) and NADH the coenzyme isomer (ᴅ,ʟ)-NAD⊕ and its dihydroform (ᴅ,ʟ)-NADH are far less tightly bound to lactate dehydrogenase and alcohol dehydrogenase from horse liver. In the presence of the second substrate (ᴅ,ʟ)-NAD⊕ and (ᴅ,ʟ)-NADH act as hydrogen acceptor and hydrogen donator, respectively, with lactate dehydrogenase and alcohol dehydrogenases from horse liver and yeast. Compared to NAD⊕ and NADH the Michaelis constants are always increased, the catalytic constants (V/Et) were found to be decreased except for the dihydroform reacting with alcohol dehydrogenase from liver.
5-Acetyl-4-methyl-1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl) -imidazole-5′-phosphate reacts with diphenylphospho chloridate forming the asymmetrical pyrophosphate ester. This in turn reacts with tri-n-butylammonium phosphate yielding 5-acetyl-4-methyl-imidazole-riboside-5′-diphosphate and with tri-rcbutylammonium pyrophosphate to give the nucleotide triphosphate.
5-Acetyl-4-methyl-imidazole-riboside-5′-pyrophosphate shows in the test with pyruvate kinase a reaction rate three times slower than that of ADP; but the same Km as that of ADP. The ATP analogue is only about 10% as effective as ATP itself in the test with hexokinase, 3-phosphoglycerate kinase and gluconate kinase. Adenylate kinase and NAD+ kinase show no activity when ATP is replaced by the nucleotide-triphosphate-analogue. In presence of ATP the analogue strongly inhibits the reaction of adenylate kinase.
