Metabolism of exogenous uridine 5'-triphosphate, adenosine 5'-triphosphate and pyrophosphate by alkylsulfatase-producing bacteria

1. 1. The uptake and metabolism of β-P 32-labelled UTP, ATP and uniformly labelled PPi was studied using bacteria washed twice with and immediately resuspended in a medium containing 0.031 M PO 3− 4. 2. 2. Under these conditions, little P 32-labelled PO 3− 4 was detected extracellularly when the cel...

Summary:1. 1. The uptake and metabolism of β-P 32-labelled UTP, ATP and uniformly labelled PPi was studied using bacteria washed twice with and immediately resuspended in a medium containing 0.031 M PO 3− 4. 2. 2. Under these conditions, little P 32-labelled PO 3− 4 was detected extracellularly when the cells were exposed for 2–5 min to 5 × 10 −5 M concentrations of the above effectors. 3. 3. Cells of both Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas C 12B incorporated the P 32-label from all effectors under the above conditions.
