Hexose-ATP phosphotransferases: Comparative aspects

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 1968
Abstract 1. 1. Glucokinase activity has been measured in livers of several amphibians, reptiles and mammals. 2. 2. The enzyme behaves adaptively in rats, mice, hamsters, guinea pigs, gerbils and squirrel monkeys. 3. 3. An antibody to yeast hexokinase was prepared; it did not react with any animal hexokinases. 4. 4.

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.

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 ...
