    Notes: Abstract In order to elucidate the NAD-recycling pathway the following enzyme activities have been characterized in different tobacco tissues and in tomato root: NAD pyrophosphatase, nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN)/nicotinic acid mononucleotide (NaMN) glycohydrolases, nicotinamidase and nicotinic acid phosphoribosyltransferase. The investigations were performed with protein extracts purified by gel filtration and enzymatic activities were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography methods. The kinetic parameters of the different enzymes from tobacco root and their specificity are reported. The data are in favor of the so-called pyridine-nucleotide cycle VI (NAD→NMN→nicotinamide→nicotinic acid→NaMN→nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide→NAD). In the nicotine-producing tobacco root a further direct route leading from NaMN to nicotinic acid is proposed. These data are reconciled with the assumption that it is nicotinic acid which is provided by the pyridine-nucleotide cycle for the synthesis of nicotine.

    Notes: Abstract Nicotine synthesis was stimulated by reduction of the medium auxin concentration (induction medium) in callus tissue originating from Nicotiana tabacum cv. Samsun. The enzyme activities of the route ornithine to methylpyrroline, which are those of ornithine decarboxylase, putrescine methyltransferase and methylputrescine oxidase, were determined during callus growth in the induction medium and as a control under non-nicotine-stimulating conditions (growth medium). The enzymes were assayed by high-performance liquid chromatography. Whereas the activities of ornithine decarboxylase were very similar under nicotine-stimulating and non-stimulating conditions, those of putrescine methyltransferase and methyl-putrescine oxidase increased strongly in the induction medium. In addition, the pools of putrescine and methylputrescine were determined throughout the callus growth cycle. Both sets of data strongly confirm the supposition that putrescine methyl-transferase is the enzyme under stringent control for nicotine biosynthesis, whereas the subsequent methylputrescine oxidase is co-regulated, although less stringently.

    Notes: Abstract In tobacco callus, the induction of nicotine synthesis, which stimulates enzyme activities of the ornithine-methylpyrroline route (see the preceding paper), also leads to marked changes in the enzyme activities of the pyridine-nucleotide cycle. This cycle provides the metabolite (probably nicotinic acid) for condensation with methylpyrroline to produce nicotine. The activities of eight enzymes of the pyridine-nucleotide cycle and of quinolinic-acid phosphoribosyltransferase, the anaplerotic enzyme, were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography assays. The distinct changes of their activities upon induction of nicotine synthesis lead to the following conclusions: i) nicotinic acid is the relevant metabolite which is provided by the pyridine-nucleotide cycle and consumed for nicotine synthesis. ii) The enhancement of the nicotinic-acid pool arises in two ways, by synthesis of NAD and degradation via nicotinamide mononucleotide and by a direct route from nicotinic-acid mononucleotide (NaMN) which is degraded by a glycohydrolase with a rather high K m value. Such a K m value prevents the complete depletion of the NaMN pool.

    Notes: Proton NMR. spectra of purine, adenine, guanine and methylsubstituted guanines have been measured in CF3COOH, FSO3H and FSO3H—SbF5—SO2 at 27° and low temperatures. These conditions permit to study multiple protonation of purines, using chemical shifts of CH, NH and OH protons. The spectra of mono-, di- and tri-cations are described and fully assigned.

    Notes: Proton-NMR. spectra of amino- and hydroxypyrimidines including biologically important bases have been measured in four solvents: CF3COOH, CF3COOH—SO2, FSO3H and FSO3H—SbF5-SO2 at 27° and -55°C. In CF3COOH mono-cations are formed, whereas in FSO3H and FSO3H—SbF5-SO2 double protonation occurs. In each case the structures of the protonated species are derived from the chemical shifts of CH, NH and OH protons and proton-proton spin coupling constants. A combination of the measurements described leads to a complete assignment of all proton resonances of the protonated pyrimidines. This approach is also recommended for the structural determination of heterocyclic compounds.
