Interaction of fluorescent adenine nucleotide derivatives with the ADP/ATP carrier in mitochondria. 2. [5-(Dimethylamino)-1-naphthoyl]adenine nucleotides as probes for the transition between c and m states of the ADP/ATP carrier.

The binding to the ADP/ATP carrier in mitochondrial membranes of the 3'-O-(dimethylamino)naphthoyl (DAN) derivatives of AMP, ADP, and ATP was quantitatively analyzed. The sidedness of the fluorescent type binding to the "m" side only was shown comparing the mitochondrial membranes in various stages of integrity and surface orientation. In particles displacement by bongkrekate (BKA) is direct, whereas in the case of carboxyatractylate (CAT) the requirement for ADP and ATP demonstrates the transition from the "m" to the "c" state. Quantitatively the "physical" binding of [3H]DAN-AMP and fluorescence are well correlated, allowing for a little nonfluorescent binding to the c side. For DAN-AMP KD is 1.6 microM, for DAN-ADP KD is 0.8 microM, and in the Hill plot a straight line with n = 1.25 is obtained. The maximum number of binding sites for [3H]DAN-AMP (1.5 mumol/g of protein) is about equal to the sites found for [3H]BKA if the unspecific binding of both ligands is differentiated by blocking carrier sites with CAT. [3H]CAT binding is somewhat lower in accordance with the limited access of CAT to inverted vesicles. ADP is able to decrease fluorescence only by about 35% at high concentrations (10 mM) whereas GDP has virtually no effect. With ADP, DAN-AMP binding decreases by 30% of the total binding sensitive to BKA. Binding to ATPase is low because of the absence of Mg2+.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Regulation of citrate synthase activity in methylotrophs by reduced nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide, adenine nucleotides and 2-oxoglutarate.

Citrate synthase from two typical facultative methylotrophs, but not from four obligate methylotrophs or from two restricted facultative methylotrophs, is inhibited by 0.1 mM-NADH. ATP or ADP (both at 10mM) inhibits all the citrate synthases, whereas 2-oxoglutarate (10mM) inhibits those from only three of the eight methylotrophs.

Circular dichroism studies of salt- and alcohol- induced conformational changes in cyanophage S-2L DNA which contains amino 2 adenine instead of adenine.

DNA molecules containing AT pairs exhibit cesium cation specific conformational behavior. This specificity is shown to be cancelled with the title DNA, which not only concerns its conformational alterations in high-salt aqueous solutions but also the B-to-A transition induced by ethanol. S-2L DNA easily adopts the A-conformation in the presence of millimolar concentrations of CsCl which completely destabilize the A-conformation in calf thymus DNA. The present results demonstrate that the specific effects of cesium cations on DNA are connected with their binding to the AT pairs in the DNA minor groove.
