Analogues of ribose 5-phosphate and 5-phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate. The preparation and properties of ribose 5-phosphorothioate and 5-phosphoribosyl 1-methylenediphosphonate.
1. 5-Phosphoribosyl 1-methylenediphosphonate was isolated after reaction of ribose 5-phosphate and O-adenylyl methylenediphosphonate with 5-phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate synthetase from Ehrlich ascites-tumour cells. 2. The analogue reacted with adenine phosphoribosyltransferase, hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase [K(m) (analogue)/K(m) (5-phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate) 0.17, 0.19 and 6.3 respectively; V(max.) (analogue)/V(max.) (5-phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate) 0.011, 0.26 and 1.1 respectively]. 3. The analogue was not a substrate for 5-phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate amidotransferase or orotate phosphoribosyltransferase. 4. Ribose 5-phosphorothioate was synthesized by allowing ribose to react with thiophosphoryl chloride in triethyl phosphate. The analogue was a substrate for 5-phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate synthetase from Ehrlich ascites-tumour cells. When this reaction was coupled to either adenine phosphoribosyltransferase or hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase, adenosine 5'-phosphorothioate or inosine 5'-phosphorothioate was formed respectively.
