Altered Metabolism and Endogenous Cyclic AMP in Cultured Cells deficient in Cyclic AMP-binding Proteins

Abstract

IT is generally supposed that protein kinases, activated by cyclic AMP, mediate the diverse biological activities of the nucleotide1–3. The evidence for this assumption derives largely from experiments dealing with regulation of the activity of enzymes concerned with glycogen metabolism4,5. We have recently reported the selection of a population of mouse lymphoma cells deficient in both the cyclic AMP-dependent histone Phosphokinase activity and in the binding of cyclic AMP to the enzyme's regulatory subunit6.
