title: Inhibition of the adenosine-5'-phosphosulfate-sulfotransferase activity from spinach, maize, and Chlorella by adenosine-5'-monophosphate.
abstract: Adenosin-5'-phosphosulfate (APS) sulfotransferase from higher plants and algae seems to be regulated by adenosine-5'-monophosphate, an endproduct of the APS-sulfotransferase reaction. This was found in crude extracts of Spinacea oleracea L. and Zea mays L. and with partially purified APS-sulfotransferase fractions from Chlorella pyrenoidosa. Half-maximal inhibition with adenosine-5'-monophosphate, was found to be (a) 1.3 mM for Spinacea; (b) 1.3 mM for Zea; and (c) 1.6 mM for Chlorella. This inhibition is specific for adenosine-5'-monophosphate, adenosine and adenosine-3'-monophosphate having no inhibitory effect.
