  1. NUCLEOTIDE METABOLISM SITI ANNISA DEVI TRUSDA

  2. Nucleotides are essential for all cells • DNA/RNA synthesisproteinsynthesiscells proliferate • Carriers of activated intermediates in the synthesis of carbohydrate, lipids and protein • Structural component of several essential coenzymes (coA,FAD,NAD+,NADP+) • cAMP,cGMP2nd messenger in signal transduction pathway • Important regulatory compound for many of the pathways of intermediary metabolism, inhibiting/activating key enzimes

  3. Nucleotide structure • Consist of: • Nitrogenous base : purine & pyrimidine • Pentose monosaccharide • 1/2/3 phosphate groups DNA and RNA contain the same purine bases: A & G Pirimidine RNA : U & C DNA : T & C T& U differ by only one methyl group

  4. Nucleosides • Pentose sugar + Nitrogen Base = Nucleosides • So, nucleotides = Nucleosides + Phosphate • If the sugar is ribose : ribonucleosides • If deoxyribose: deoxyribonucleosides • Ribonucleosides of A,G,C,U: Adenosine,Guanosine,Cytidine,Uridine • What are the deoxyribonucleosides for A,G,C,T?

  5. Nucleotides • mono,di,tri esters of nucleosides • 1st phosphate group is attached by an ester linkage to the 5’OH of the pentosenucleoside 5’phosphate/5’-nucleoside • Type of pentose is added as prefix for nucleotide, can be ribose/deoxyribosee.g: 5’-ribonucleotide/5’-deoxyribonucleotide

  6. 1 phosphate group + 5’-carbon of the pentosenucleosidemonophosphate(NMP) e.g AMP, CMP • 2 or 3 phosphate group added to the nucleosidenucleosidedi/triphosphatee.g ADP/ATP • The latter connected to the nucleotide by a high-energy bond • Phosphate groups(-) charge DNA/RNA=nucleic acids

  7. So, what is : • Nucleoside? • Nucleotide? • Nucleic acid?

  8. SYNTHESIS OF PURINE NUCLEOTIDES • Source of purine ring: aspartic acid, glycine, glutamine, CO2,N10-formylTHF • Synthesis of 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP) an activated pentose for synthesis of purine/pirimidine & salvage of purine bases catalyzed by PRPP synthetase, from ATP & ribose 5-phosphate this enzyme is activated by inorganic phosphat (Pi), inhibited by purine nucleotides the sugar of PRPP is ribose ribonucleotides as end product of purinesynthetis

  9. Purine synthesis is critical to fetal development, therefore defects in enzymes will result in a nonviable fetus. • PRPP synthetase defects are known and have severe consequences (next slide) • PRPP synthetasesuperactivity has been documented, resulting in increased PRPP, elevated levels of nucleotides, and increased excretion of uric acid.

  10. Phosphoribosyl Pyrophosphate (PRPP) Synthetase Defects • PRPP deficiency results in convulsions, autistic behavior, anemia, and severe mental retardation. • Excessive PRPP activity causes gout (deposition of uric acid crystals), along with various neurological symptoms, such as deafness.

  11. Synthesis of 5’-phosphoribosylamine Amide group of glutamine replaces the pyrophosphate group at C1 of PRPP the enzyme, glutamine:phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate amidotransferase is inhibited by the purine 5’-nucleotides AMP,GMP,IMP (end product) Committed step Rate of reaction also controlled by intracellular [] of glutamine and PRPP

  12. Synthesis of inosinemonophosphate,the “parent” of purine nucleotide requires 4 ATP 2 steps require N10 –formyltetrahydrofolate • Conversion of IMP to AMP and GMP 2 step energy requiring pathway synthesis of AMP requires GTP as energy source synthesis of GMP requires ATP

  13. Conversion of nucleoside monophosphates to nucleoside di and triphosphate AMP + ATP ↔ 2 ADP GMP +ATP ↔ GDP + ADP GDP + ATP ↔ GTP + ADP CDP + ATP ↔ CTP + ADP

  14. Purine Synthesis

  15. DAUR dr IMP  AMP & GMP Adenilosuksinat synthetase IMP dehidrogenase XMP aminase Adenilosuksinat lyase

  16. Salvage Pathway of purines • Purines that result from the normal turnover of cellular nucleic acids/diet can be reconverted into nucleoside triphosphatessalvage pathway • 2 enzymes: Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT), and hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) • Both needs PRPP as the source of the ribose 5-phosphate

  17. Degradation of Purine Nucleotides • Purine Nucleotides from ingested nucleic acids or turnover of cellular nucleic acids is excreted by humans as uric acid. • Humans excrete about 0.6 g uric acid every 24 hours. • Degradation of dietary nucleic acids occurs in the small intestine by pancreatic enzymes

  18. Digestion of dietary nucleic acids • In the stomach: low pH denatures DNA&RNA • In small intestine: break down phosphodiester bond by endonuclease(pancreas)  oligonucleotide • By phosphodiesterase(exonucleasenon spesific enzyme)  mononucleotide • By phosphomonoesterase (nucleotidase)result:nucleosideand orthophosphate. • Nucleosidaphosphorylase result: baseand ribose-1-phosphate.

  19. The nucleoside then absorbed by intestinal mucosal cells • If the base or nucleoside is unused, it will be reused in salvage pathways, the base will be degraded: uric acid ureidopropionic (purin) (pyrimidine).

  20. Diseases associated with purine degradation

  21. Gout • Elevated uric acid levels in the blood • Uric acid crystals will form in the extremities with a surrounding area of inflammation. This is called a tophus and is often described as an arthritic “great toe”. • Can be caused by a defect in an enzyme of purine metabolism or by reduced secretion of uric acid into the urinary tract. tophus

  22. Adenosine Deaminase (ADA) and Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylase (PNP) Deficiency. • accumulation of adenosine wich is converted to its ribonucleotide or deoxyribonucleotide form by cellular kinases • As dATP level rise, ribonucleotidereductase is inhibited↓ production of all deoxyribose containing nucleotidescells cannot make DNA and divide. • Most severe form: severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID)lack of T and B cells

  23. A deficiency of either ADA or PNP causes a moderate to complete lack of immune function. • Affected children cannot survive outside a sterile environment. • They may also have moderate neurological problems, including partial paralysis of the limbs. • When a compatible donor can be found, bone marrow transplant is an effective treatment.

  24. Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome • Hypoxanthine Guanine Phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) deficiency • X-linked genetic condition • Severe neurologic disease, characterized by self-mutilating behaviors such as lip and finger biting and/or head banging • Up to 20 times the uric acid in the urine than in normal individuals. Uric acid crystals form in the urine. • Untreated condition results in death within the first year due to kidney failure. • Treated with allopurinol, a competitive inhibitor of xanthineoxidase.

  25. SYNTHESIS OF DEOXYRIBONUCLEOTIDES • Deoxyribonucleotides required for DNA synthesis (2’-deoxyribonucleotides) • Enzyme: ribonucleotidereductase • Inhibitor : dATP • Needed a coenzyme : thioredoxin • Thioredoxin is regenerated by thioredoxinreductase • Regulation of ribonucleotide reduction is controlled by allosteric feedback mechanisms.

  26. PYRIMIDINE SYNTHESIS AND DEGRADATION • Source of pyrimidine ring: glutamine, CO2, aspartic acid • Synthesis of carbamoyl phosphate from glutamine & CO2, enzyme: carbamoyl phosphate synthetase II (CPS II), inhibited by UTP activated by ATP and PRPP

  27. Synthesis of orotic acid formation of carbamoylaspartatedihydroorotateorotic acid (mind the enzymes!!) • Formation of a pyrimidine nucleotide : orotidine 5’-monophosphate (OMP)the parent of pyrimidine mononucleotide OMPUridinemonophosphate (UMP) • Synthesis of uridinetriphosphate and cytidinetriphosphate CTP is produced by amination of UTP • Synthesis of thymidinemonophosphate from dUMP

  28. Orotatfosforibosiltransferase Orotidilate dekarboksilase CTP synthetase UMP kinase Nukleosida diphosphat kinase

  29. Pyrimidine Synthesis Production of Uridine 5’-monophosphate (UMP) from orotate is catalyzed by the enzyme UMP synthase

  30. Orotic Aciduria • Deficiency in UMP synthetase activity • Due to the demand for nucleotides in the process of red blood cell synthesis, patients develop the condition of megaloblastic anemia, a deficiency of red blood cells. • Pyrimidine synthesis is decreased and excess orotic acid is excreted in the urine (hence the name oroticaciduria)

  31. Degradation of pyrimidine nucleotides • Unlike the purine rings, which are not cleaved in human cells, the pyrimidine ring can be opened and degraded to highly soluble structures, such as β-alanine, and β-aminoisobutyrate, which can serve as precursors of acetyl coA and succinylcoA

  32. SALVAGE OF PYRIMIDINES Pyrimidine salvage defects have not been clinically documented
