Transient binding of cyclic AMP to aggregating cells of Dictyostelium discoideum was measured under cyclic GMP excess in order to inhibit cyclic AMP hydrolysis by cell-bound phosphodiesterase. Cyclic GMP extended the period of half-maximal cyclic AMP binding from less than 5 sec to 1-2 min. With the same time course as bound cyclic AMP was released from the cells, labeled 5'-AMP appeared in the medium. Specificity, kinetics, and developmental regulation suggest that the cyclic AMP-binding sites exposed in living cells are identical with receptor sites for the chemotactic response. The functioning of the cyclic AMP-receptor/phosphodiesterase system and its formal similarity with the synaptic acetylcholine-receptor/esterase system are discussed.
为了抑制细胞结合型磷酸二酯酶对环磷酸腺苷(cAMP)的水解,在过量环磷酸鸟苷(cGMP)存在的情况下,测定了cAMP与盘基网柄菌聚集细胞的瞬时结合。cGMP将cAMP半最大结合期从不到5秒延长至1 - 2分钟。与结合的cAMP从细胞中释放的时间进程相同,标记的5'-AMP出现在培养基中。特异性、动力学和发育调控表明,活细胞中暴露的cAMP结合位点与趋化反应的受体位点相同。本文讨论了cAMP受体/磷酸二酯酶系统的功能及其与突触乙酰胆碱受体/酯酶系统的形式相似性。
