On the distribution and biological significance of the nucleoside phosphotransferases.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, 1955
Abstract Nucleoside phosphotransferases were found in a large variety of plant and animal tissues. In plants and bacteria, only 5′-nucleotides are formed, while in animals small amounts of the 3′-isomers are also produced. The rates of phosphate transfer from phenylphosphate and 5′-inosinic acid are of the same order of magnitude in plants, bacteria ...

Sulphotransferases and phosphotransferases in insects

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1973
Abstract 1. 1. High-speed supernatant fractions from tissue homogenates of eight species of insects representing four major orders were tested for sulphotransferase and phosphotransferase activities. 2. 2. A sulphotransferase system was present in all the species tested and required ATP, Mg 2+ and inorganic sulphate for the sulphation of p -

Polyphosphate:AMP Phosphotransferase and Polyphosphate:ADP Phosphotransferase Activities of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2001
In Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, we have found massive polyphosphate:AMP phosphotransferase activity and polyphosphate:ADP phosphotransferase activity known as the reverse catalytic activity of polyphosphate kinase which participates in polyphosphate synthesis in the bacterium.

Functional characterization and phylogenetic analysis of acquired and intrinsic macrolide phosphotransferases in the Bacillus cereus group.

Environmental Microbiology, 2015
The Bacillus cereus group is composed of Gram-positive spore-forming bacteria of clinical and ecological importance. More than 200 B. cereus group isolates have been sequenced. However, there are few reports of B. cereus group antibiotic resistance genes.

Studies on the nucleoside phosphotransferase of carrot I. Partial purification of the nucleoside phosphotransferase

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, 1960
Abstract The partial purification of the nucleoside phosphotransferase of carrot is described. The procedures, which entailed precipitation with acetone, fractionation with ammonium sulfate, and treatment with zinc ions in the presence of ethanol and with calcium phosphate gel, afforded preparations whose specific transferase activity was 40 to 100 ...

Transposable Neomycin Phosphotransferases [PDF]

open access: possible, 1977
Transposable genetic elements are discrete DNA segments with the capacity to move between independent DNA replicons within the cell. The recent discoveries that certain plasmid-borne genes, which confer resistance to antibiotics and to heavy metals, are components of transposable elements has improved our understanding of how plasmids might pick up ...

Fluorinated aminoglycosides and their mechanistic implication for aminoglycoside 3'-phosphotransferases from Gram-negative bacteria.

Biochemistry, 2004
Aminoglycoside 3'-phosphotransferases [APH(3')s] are important bacterial resistance enzymes for aminoglycoside antibiotics. These enzymes phosphorylate the 3'-hydroxyl of these antibiotics, a reaction that inactivates the drug.

Assay of aminoglycoside phosphotransferase in situ

Analytical Biochemistry, 1985
A method for the evaluation of the aminoglycoside phosphotransferase activity in bacterial colonies directly is described. The method is based on the ability of the enzyme to modify the substrate immobilized on carboxymethylcellulose paper. The sensitivity and accuracy of the method were tested by comparing the results of the present assay to those ...

Tethered bisubstrate derivatives as probes for mechanism and as inhibitors of aminoglycoside 3'-phosphotransferases.

Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2000
Aminoglycoside 3'-phosphotransferases [APH(3')s] phosphorylate aminoglycoside antibiotics, a reaction that inactivates the antibiotics. These enzymes are the primary cause of resistance to aminoglycosides in bacteria.

Nucleoside phosphotransferase of chick embryo

Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 1979
This paper describes a purification procedure and some properties of a nonspecific nucleoside phosphotransferase of chick embryo, an activity which catalyzes the transfer of chick embryo, an activity which catalyzes the transfer of the phosphate ester from a deoxyribonucleotide or a pyrimidine ribonucleotide to a deoxyribonucleoside acceptor.
