Abstract:
:The kinetic properties of partially purified ribonucleotide reductase from Chinese hamster ovary cells have been investigated. Double reciprocal plots of velocity against substrate concentration were found to be linear for three the substrates tested, and yielded apparent Km values of 0.12 mM for CDP, 0.14 mM for ADP and 0.026 mM for GDP. Hydroxyurea, a potent inhibitor of ribonucleotide reduction, was tested against varying concentrations of ribonucleotide substrates and inhibited the enzyme activity in an uncompetitive fashion. Intercept replots were linear and exhibited Ki values for hydroxyurea of 0.08 mM for CDP reduction, 0.13 mM for ADP reduction and 0.07 mM for GDP reduction. Guanazole, another inhibitor of ribonucleotide reductase, interacted with the enzyme in a similar manner to hydroxyurea showing an uncompetitive pattern of inhibition with CDP reduction and yielding a Ki value of 0.57 mM. Partially purified ribonucleotide reductase from hydroxyurea-resistant cells was compared to enzyme activity from wild type cells. Significant differences were observed in the hydroxyurea Ki values with the three ribonucleotide substrates that were tested. Also, CDP reductase activity from the drug-resistant cells yielded a significantly higher Ki value for guanazole inhibition than the wild type activity. The properties of partially purified ribonucleotide reductase from a somatic cell hybrid constructed from wild type and hydroxyurea-resistant cells was also examined. The Ki value for hydroxyurea inhibition of CDP reductase was intermediate between the Ki values of the parental lines and indicated a codominant expression of hydroxyurea-resistance at the enzyme level. The most logical explanation for these results is that the mutant cells contain a structurally altered ribonucleotide reductase whose activity is less sensitive to inhibition by hydroxyurea or guanazole.
