Slide 1-

Nucleotides: Synthesis and Degradation
Slide 2-

Nitrogenous Bases Planar, aromatic, and heterocyclic Derived from purine or pyrimidine Numbering of bases is “unprimed”
Slide 3-

Nucleic Acid Bases Purines Pyrimidines
Slide 4-

Sugars Pentoses (5-C sugars) Numbering of sugars is “primed”
Slide 5-

Sugars D-Ribose and 2’-Deoxyribose *Lacks a 2’-OH group
Slide 6-

Nucleosides Result from linking one of the sugars with a purine or pyrimidine base through an N-glycosidic linkage Purines bond to the C1’ carbon of the sugar at their N9 atoms Pyrimidines bond to the C1’ carbon of the sugar at their N1 atoms
Slide 7-

Nucleosides
Slide 8-

Phosphate Groups Mono-, di- or triphosphates Phosphates can be bonded to either C3 or C5 atoms of the sugar
Slide 9-

Nucleotides Result from linking one or more phosphates with a nucleoside onto the 5’ end of the molecule through esterification
Slide 10-

Nucleotides RNA (ribonucleic acid) is a polymer of ribonucleotides DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is a polymer of deoxyribonucleotides Both deoxy- and ribonucleotides contain Adenine, Guanine and Cytosine Ribonucleotides contain Uracil Deoxyribonucleotides contain Thymine
Slide 11-

Nucleotides Monomers for nucleic acid polymers Nucleoside Triphosphates are important energy carriers (ATP, GTP) Important components of coenzymes FAD, NAD+ and Coenzyme A
Slide 12-

Naming Conventions Nucleosides: Purine nucleosides end in “-sine” Adenosine, Guanosine Pyrimidine nucleosides end in “-dine” Thymidine, Cytidine, Uridine Nucleotides: Start with the nucleoside name from above and add “mono-”, “di-”, or “triphosphate” Adenosine Monophosphate, Cytidine Triphosphate, Deoxythymidine Diphosphate
Slide 13-

In-Class Activities Look at the Nucleotide Structures Take the Nucleotide Identification Quiz Be prepared to identify some of these structures on an exam. Learn some “tricks” that help you to distinguish among the different structures
Slide 14-

Nucleotide Metabolism PURINE RIBONUCLEOTIDES: formed de novo i.e., purines are not initially synthesized as free bases First purine derivative formed is Inosine Mono-phosphate (IMP) The purine base is hypoxanthine AMP and GMP are formed from IMP
Slide 15-

Purine Nucleotides Get broken down into Uric Acid (a purine) Buchanan (mid 1900s) showed where purine ring components came from: N1: Aspartate Amine C2, C8: Formate N3, N9: Glutamine C4, C5, N7: Glycine C6: Bicarbonate Ion
Slide 16-

Purine Nucleotide Synthesis
Slide 17-

Purine Nucleotide Synthesis at a Glance ATP is involved in 6 steps PRPP in the first step of Purine synthesis is also a precursor for Pyrimidine Synthesis, His and Trp synthesis Role of ATP in first step is unique– group transfer rather than coupling In second step, C1 notation changes from a to b (anomers specifying OH positioning on C1 with respect to C4 group) In step 2, PPi is hydrolyzed to 2Pi (irreversible, “committing” step)
Slide 18-

Hydrolyzing a phosphate from ATP is relatively easy G°’= -30.5 kJ/mol If endergonic reaction released energy into cell as heat energy, wouldn’t be useful Must be coupled to an exergonic reaction When ATP is a reactant: Part of the ATP can be transferred to an acceptor: Pi, PPi, adenyl, or adenosinyl group ATP hydrolysis can drive an otherwise unfavorable reaction (synthetase; “energase”) Coupling of Reactions
Slide 19-

Purine Biosynthetic Pathway Channeling of some reactions on pathway organizes and controls processing of substrates to products in each step Increases overall rate of pathway and protects intermediates from degradation In animals, IMP synthesis pathway shows channeling at: Reactions 3, 4, 6 Reactions 7, 8 Reactions 10, 11
Slide 20-

In Class Activity *** Calculate how many ATP equivalents are needed for the de novo synthesize IMP. Assume that all of the substrates (R5P, glutamine, etc) are available Note: You should be able to do this calculation for the synthesis of any of the nucleoside monophosphates
Slide 21-

IMP Conversion to AMP
Slide 22-

IMP Conversion to GMP
Slide 23-

Regulatory Control of Purine Nucleotide Biosynthesis GTP is involved in AMP synthesis and ATP is involved in GMP synthesis (reciprocal control of production) PRPP is a biosynthetically “central” molecule (why?) ADP/GDP levels – negative feedback on Ribose Phosphate Pyrophosphokinase Amidophosphoribosyl transferase is activated by PRPP levels APRT activity has negative feedback at two sites ATP, ADP, AMP bound at one site GTP,GDP AND GMP bound at the other site Rate of AMP production increases with increasing concentrations of GTP; rate of GMP production increases with increasing concentrations of ATP
Slide 24-

Regulatory Control of Purine Biosynthesis Above the level of IMP production: Independent control Synergistic control Feedforward activation by PRPP Below level of IMP production Reciprocal control Total amounts of purine nucleotides controlled Relative amounts of ATP, GTP controlled
Slide 25-

Purine Catabolism and Salvage All purine degradation leads to uric acid (but it might not stop there) Ingested nucleic acids are degraded to nucleotides by pancreatic nucleases, and intestinal phosphodiesterases in the intestine Group-specific nucleotidases and non-specific phosphatases degrade nucleotides into nucleosides Direct absorption of nucleosides Further degradation Nucleoside + H2O  base + ribose (nucleosidase) Nucleoside + Pi  base + r-1-phosphate (n. phosphorylase) NOTE: MOST INGESTED NUCLEIC ACIDS ARE DEGRADED AND EXCRETED.
Slide 26-

Intracellular Purine Catabolism Nucleotides broken into nucleosides by action of 5’-nucleotidase (hydrolysis reactions) Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) Inosine  Hypoxanthine Xanthosine  Xanthine Guanosine  Guanine Ribose-1-phosphate splits off Can be isomerized to ribose-5-phosphate Adenosine is deaminated to Inosine (ADA)
Slide 27-

Intracellular Purine Catabolism Xanthine is the point of convergence for the metabolism of the purine bases Xanthine  Uric acid Xanthine oxidase catalyzes two reactions Purine ribonucleotide degradation pathway is same for purine deoxyribonucleotides
Slide 28-

Adenosine Degradation
Slide 29-

Xanthosine Degradation Ribose sugar gets recycled (Ribose-1-Phosphate  R-5-P ) – can be incorporated into PRPP (efficiency) Hypoxanthine is converted to Xanthine by Xanthine Oxidase Guanine is converted to Xanthine by Guanine Deaminase Xanthine gets converted to Uric Acid by Xanthine Oxidase
Slide 30-

Xanthine Oxidase A homodimeric protein Contains electron transfer proteins FAD Mo-pterin complex in +4 or +6 state Two 2Fe-2S clusters Transfers electrons to O2  H2O2 H2O2 is toxic Disproportionated to H2O and O2 by catalase
Slide 31-

AMP + H2O  IMP + NH4+ (AMP Deaminase) IMP + Aspartate + GTP  AMP + Fumarate + GDP + Pi (Adenylosuccinate Synthetase) COMBINE THE TWO REACTIONS: Aspartate + H2O + GTP  Fumarate + GDP + Pi + NH4+ The overall result of combining reactions is deamination of Aspartate to Fumarate at the expense of a GTP THE PURINE NUCLEOTIDE CYCLE
Slide 32-

Purine Nucleotide Cycle *** In-Class Question: Why is the purine nucleotide cycle important in muscle metabolism during a burst of activity?
Slide 33-

Uric Acid Excretion Humans – excreted into urine as insoluble crystals Birds, terrestrial reptiles, some insects – excrete insoluble crystals in paste form Excess amino N converted to uric acid (conserves water) Others – further modification : Uric Acid  Allantoin  Allantoic Acid  Urea  Ammonia
Slide 34-

Purine Salvage Adenine phosphoribosyl transferase (APRT) Adenine + PRPP  AMP + PPi Hypoxanthine-Guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT) Hypoxanthine + PRPP  IMP + PPi Guanine + PRPP  GMP + PPi (NOTE: THESE ARE ALL REVERSIBLE REACTIONS) AMP,IMP,GMP do not need to be resynthesized de novo !

A CASE STUDY : GOUT A 45 YEAR OLD MAN AWOKE FROM SLEEP WITH A PAINFUL AND SWOLLEN RIGHT GREAT TOE. ON THE PREVIOUS NIGHT HE HAD EATEN A MEAL OF FRIED LIVER AND ONIONS, AFTER WHICH HE MET WITH HIS POKER GROUP AND DRANK A NUMBER OF BEERS. HE SAW HIS DOCTOR THAT MORNING, “GOUTY ARTHRITIS” WAS DIAGNOSED, AND SOME TESTS WERE ORDERED. HIS SERUM URIC ACID LEVEL WAS ELEVATED AT 8.0 mg/dL (NL < 7.0 mg/dL). THE MAN RECALLED THAT HIS FATHER AND HIS GRANDFATHER, BOTH OF WHOM WERE ALCOHOLICS, OFTEN COMPLAINED OF JOINT PAIN AND SWELLING IN THEIR FEET.
Slide 36-

A CASE STUDY : GOUT THE DOCTOR RECOMMENDED THAT THE MAN USE NSAIDS FOR PAIN AND SWELLING, INCREASE HIS FLUID INTAKE (BUT NOT WITH ALCOHOL) AND REST AND ELEVATE HIS FOOT. HE ALSO PRESCRIBED ALLOPURINOL. A FEW DAYS LATER THE CONDITION HAD RESOLVED AND ALLOPURINOL HAD BEEN STOPPED. A REPEAT URIC ACID LEVEL WAS OBTAINED (7.1 mg/dL). THE DOCTOR GAVE THE MAN SOME ADVICE REGARDING LIFE STYLE CHANGES.
Slide 37-

Gout Impaired excretion or overproduction of uric acid Uric acid crystals precipitate into joints (Gouty Arthritis), kidneys, ureters (stones) Lead impairs uric acid excretion – lead poisoning from pewter drinking goblets Fall of Roman Empire? Xanthine oxidase inhibitors inhibit production of uric acid, and treat gout Allopurinol treatment – hypoxanthine analog that binds to Xanthine Oxidase to decrease uric acid production
