Adenosine monophosphate (AMP), also known as 5'-adenylic acid, is a nucleotide. AMP consists of a phosphate group, the sugar ribose, and the nucleobase adenine. It is an ester of phosphoric acid and the nucleoside adenosine. As a substituent it takes the form of the prefix adenylyl-.
AMP plays an important role in many cellular metabolic processes, being interconverted to adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP), as well as allosterically activating enzymes such as myophosphorylase-b. AMP is also a component in the synthesis of RNA. AMP is present in all known forms of life. |

Panther E, Dürk T, Ferrari D, Di Virgilio F, Grimm M, Sorichter S, Cicko S, Herouy Y, Norgauer J, Idzko M, Müller T (2012) AMP affects intracellular Ca2+ signaling, migration, cytokine secretion and T cell priming capacity of dendritic cells. PloS one 7, e37560 [PubMed:22624049] [show Abstract] The nucleotide adenosine-5'-monophosphate (AMP) can be released by various cell types and has been shown to elicit different cellular responses. In the extracellular space AMP is dephosphorylated to the nucleoside adenosine which can then bind to adenosine receptors. However, it has been shown that AMP can also activate A(1) and A(2a) receptors directly. Here we show that AMP is a potent modulator of mouse and human dendritic cell (DC) function. AMP increased intracellular Ca(2+) concentration in a time and dose dependent manner. Furthermore, AMP stimulated actin-polymerization in human DCs and induced migration of immature human and bone marrow derived mouse DCs, both via direct activation of A(1) receptors. AMP strongly inhibited secretion of TNF-α and IL-12p70, while it enhanced production of IL-10 both via activation of A(2a) receptors. Consequently, DCs matured in the presence of AMP and co-cultivated with naive CD4(+)CD45RA(+) T cells inhibited IFN-γ production whereas secretion of IL-5 and IL-13 was up-regulated. An enhancement of Th2-driven immune response could also be observed when OVA-pulsed murine DCs were pretreated with AMP prior to co-culture with OVA-transgenic naïve OTII T cells. An effect due to the enzymatic degradation of AMP to adenosine could be ruled out, as AMP still elicited migration and changes in cytokine secretion in bone-marrow derived DCs generated from CD73-deficient animals and in human DCs pretreated with the ecto-nucleotidase inhibitor 5'-(alpha,beta-methylene) diphosphate (APCP). Finally, the influence of contaminating adenosine could be excluded, as AMP admixed with adenosine desaminase (ADA) was still able to influence DC function. In summary our data show that AMP when present during maturation is a potent regulator of dendritic cell function and point out the role for AMP in the pathogenesis of inflammatory disorders. | Rittiner JE, Korboukh I, Hull-Ryde EA, Jin J, Janzen WP, Frye SV, Zylka MJ (2012) AMP is an adenosine A1 receptor agonist. The Journal of biological chemistry 287, 5301-5309 [PubMed:22215671] [show Abstract] Numerous receptors for ATP, ADP, and adenosine exist; however, it is currently unknown whether a receptor for the related nucleotide adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP) exists. Using a novel cell-based assay to visualize adenosine receptor activation in real time, we found that AMP and a non-hydrolyzable AMP analog (deoxyadenosine 5'-monophosphonate, ACP) directly activated the adenosine A(1) receptor (A(1)R). In contrast, AMP only activated the adenosine A(2B) receptor (A(2B)R) after hydrolysis to adenosine by ecto-5'-nucleotidase (NT5E, CD73) or prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP, ACPP). Adenosine and AMP were equipotent human A(1)R agonists in our real-time assay and in a cAMP accumulation assay. ACP also depressed cAMP levels in mouse cortical neurons through activation of endogenous A(1)R. Non-selective purinergic receptor antagonists (pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulfonic acid and suramin) did not block adenosine- or AMP-evoked activation. Moreover, mutation of His-251 in the human A(1)R ligand binding pocket reduced AMP potency without affecting adenosine potency. In contrast, mutation of a different binding pocket residue (His-278) eliminated responses to AMP and to adenosine. Taken together, our study indicates that the physiologically relevant nucleotide AMP is a full agonist of A(1)R. In addition, our study suggests that some of the physiological effects of AMP may be direct, and not indirect through ectonucleotidases that hydrolyze this nucleotide to adenosine. | Castrillo JI, Zeef LA, Hoyle DC, Zhang N, Hayes A, Gardner DC, Cornell MJ, Petty J, Hakes L, Wardleworth L, Rash B, Brown M, Dunn WB, Broadhurst D, O'Donoghue K, Hester SS, Dunkley TP, Hart SR, Swainston N, Li P, Gaskell SJ, Paton NW, Lilley KS, Kell DB, Oliver SG (2007) Growth control of the eukaryote cell: a systems biology study in yeast. Journal of biology 6, 4 [PubMed:17439666] [show Abstract]
BackgroundCell growth underlies many key cellular and developmental processes, yet a limited number of studies have been carried out on cell-growth regulation. Comprehensive studies at the transcriptional, proteomic and metabolic levels under defined controlled conditions are currently lacking.ResultsMetabolic control analysis is being exploited in a systems biology study of the eukaryotic cell. Using chemostat culture, we have measured the impact of changes in flux (growth rate) on the transcriptome, proteome, endometabolome and exometabolome of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Each functional genomic level shows clear growth-rate-associated trends and discriminates between carbon-sufficient and carbon-limited conditions. Genes consistently and significantly upregulated with increasing growth rate are frequently essential and encode evolutionarily conserved proteins of known function that participate in many protein-protein interactions. In contrast, more unknown, and fewer essential, genes are downregulated with increasing growth rate; their protein products rarely interact with one another. A large proportion of yeast genes under positive growth-rate control share orthologs with other eukaryotes, including humans. Significantly, transcription of genes encoding components of the TOR complex (a major controller of eukaryotic cell growth) is not subject to growth-rate regulation. Moreover, integrative studies reveal the extent and importance of post-transcriptional control, patterns of control of metabolic fluxes at the level of enzyme synthesis, and the relevance of specific enzymatic reactions in the control of metabolic fluxes during cell growth.ConclusionThis work constitutes a first comprehensive systems biology study on growth-rate control in the eukaryotic cell. The results have direct implications for advanced studies on cell growth, in vivo regulation of metabolic fluxes for comprehensive metabolic engineering, and for the design of genome-scale systems biology models of the eukaryotic cell. | Chapman J, Soloveichick L, Shavit S, Shoenfeld Y, Korczyn AD (2005) Antiphospholipid antibodies bind ATP: a putative mechanism for the pathogenesis of neuronal dysfunction. Clinical & developmental immunology 12, 175-180 [PubMed:16295522] [show Abstract] Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) generated in experimental animals cross-react with ATP. We therefore examined the possibility that aPL IgG from human subjects bind to ATP by affinity column and an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Sera with high levels of aPL IgG were collected from 12 patients with the antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). IgG fractions from 10 of 12 APS patients contained aPL that could be affinity-bound to an ATP column and completely eluted with NaCl 0.5 M. A significant (> 50%) inhibition of aPL IgG binding by ATP 5 mM was found in the majority. Similar inhibition was obtained with ADP but not with AMP or cAMP. All the affinity purified anti-ATP antibodies also bound beta2-glycoprotein-I (beta2-GPI, also known as apolipoprotein H) suggesting that, similar to most pathogenic aPL, their binding depends on this serum cofactor. We further investigated this possibility and found that the binding of beta2-GPI to the ATP column was similar to that of aPL IgG in that most was reversed by NaCl 0.5 M. Furthermore, addition of beta2-GPI to aPL IgG significantly increased the amount of aPL binding to an ATP column. We conclude that aPL IgG bind ATP, probably through beta32-GPI. This binding could interfere with the normal extracellular function of ATP and similar neurotransmitters. | Zhao J, Fleet GH (2005) Degradation of RNA during the autolysis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae produces predominantly ribonucleotides. Journal of industrial microbiology & biotechnology 32, 415-423 [PubMed:16091942] [show Abstract] Autolytic degradation of yeast RNA occurs in many foods and beverages and can impact on the sensory quality of the product, but the resulting complex mixture of nucleotides, nucleosides and nucleobases has not been properly characterised. In this study, yeast autolysis was induced by incubating cell suspensions of Saccharomyces cerevisiae at 30-60 degrees C (pH 7.0), and at pH 4.0-7.0 (40 degrees C) for 10-14 days, and the RNA degradation products formed during the process were determined by reversed-phase HPLC. Up to 95% of cell RNA was degraded, with consequent leakage into the extracellular environment of mainly 3'-, 5'- and 2'-ribonucleotides, and lesser amounts of polynucleotides, ribonucleosides and nucleobases. The rate of RNA degradation and the composition of the breakdown products varied with temperature and pH. RNA degradation was fastest at 50 degrees C (pH 7.0). Autolysis at lower temperatures (30 degrees C and 40 degrees C) and at pH 5.0 and 6.0 favoured the formation of 3'-nucleotides, whereas autolysis at 40 degrees C and 50 degrees C (pH 7.0) favoured 5'- and 2'-nucleotides. The best conditions for the formation of the two flavour-enhancing nucleotides, 5'-AMP and 5'-GMP, were 50 degrees C (pH 7.0) and pH 4.0 (40 degrees C), respectively. | Llinas P, Stura EA, Ménez A, Kiss Z, Stigbrand T, Millán JL, Le Du MH (2005) Structural studies of human placental alkaline phosphatase in complex with functional ligands. Journal of molecular biology 350, 441-451 [PubMed:15946677] [show Abstract] The activity of human placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP) is downregulated by a number of effectors such as l-phenylalanine, an uncompetitive inhibitor, 5'-AMP, an antagonist of the effects of PLAP on fibroblast proliferation and by p-nitrophenyl-phosphonate (PNPPate), a non-hydrolysable substrate analogue. For the first two, such regulation may be linked to its biological function that requires a reduced and better-regulated hydrolytic rate. To understand how such disparate ligands are able to inhibit the enzyme, we solved the structure of the complexes at 1.6A, 1.9A and 1.9A resolution, respectively. These crystal structures are the first of an alkaline phosphatase in complex with organic inhibitors. Of the three inhibitors, only l-Phe and PNPPate bind at the active site hydrophobic pocket, providing structural data on the uncompetitive inhibition process. In contrast, all three ligands interact at a remote peripheral site located 28A from the active site. In order to extend these observations to the other members of the human alkaline phosphatase family, we have modelled the structures of the other human isozymes and compared them to PLAP. This comparison highlights the crucial role played by position 429 at the active site in the modulation of the catalytic process, and suggests that the peripheral binding site may be involved in the functional specialization of the PLAP isozyme. | Skrypal' IH, Tokovenko IP, Malynovs'ka LP (2005) [Effect of silver nitrate, adenosine-5'-monophosphate and phosphoenolpyruvate on activity of extracellular fructose bisphosphatase of Acholeplasma laidlawii var. granulum strain 118]. Mikrobiolohichnyi zhurnal (Kiev, Ukraine : 1993) 67, 28-34 [PubMed:16250233] [show Abstract] The reactions of glycolysis or gluconeogenesis proceed in good coordination in the cells of microorganisms, and each stage of these processes is distinctly regulated. Under such conditions fructose-bisphosphatase (FBPase) activity (the enzyme level being constant in the cells of microorganisms) is inhibited by adenosine-5'-monophosphate (AMP) and is activated by phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) depending on the kind of the source of carbon (glycolytic or glyconeogenic) used for microorganism growth. It is evident that the corresponding regulation of FBPase should be absent in the extracellular environment where one cannot observe a distinct coordination of functioning of the enzyme systems. The investigation results prove that both AMP and PEP, under their individual testing in concentrations up to 20 microM did not practically affect activity of extracellular FBPase, and at higher concentrations they sharply decreased its activity (200 microM AMP by 70%, and PEP - by 75%). Under joint use of PEP and AMP (in concentration 200 microM and 500 microM) one could observe mutual neutralization of the effect of these substances on FBPase; as a result, its activity decreased only by 15% under AMP concentration of 500 microM, and by 25% at AMP concentration of 200 microM, that is in complete agreement with the data of individual testing of the above substances. PEP in high concentrations has displayed itself as a more active repressor of FBPase activity than AMP. AgNO3 in concentrations to 20 microM has manifested itself as a moderate stimulator of FBPase activity and even in the concentration of 200 microM it decreased the enzyme activity by 50% only. The data obtained are rather different than those described in literature for cellular FBPases of microorganisms. It is known that AMP is a powerful inhibitor of its FBPases activity (Ki = 5 microM) while PEP activates it (Ka = 20 microM). | Van der Merwe DM, Van der Merwe PL (2004) Supraventricular tachycardia in children. Cardiovascular journal of South Africa : official journal for Southern Africa Cardiac Society [and] South African Society of Cardiac Practitioners 15, 64-69 [PubMed:15148540] [show Abstract] The mechanisms causing different supraventricular tachycardias can be identified with the aid of the 12-lead ECG using Tipple's approach. The main aims of this retrospective study were to use the 12-lead ECG to determine the underlying mechanisms of supraventricular arrhythmias and to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment modalities used. Forty-one patients were included in the study. The main findings were: nine of the 41 patients had atrial tachycardias while junctional tachycardia occurred in 32/41 of our patients. The underlying mechanisms causing the junctional tachycardias were: AVNRT (n = 21), AVRT (n = 10) and JET (n = 1). Of the 10 patients presenting with AVRT, eight were less than one year old. AVNRT occurred more often in the older age group (>1 year of age). Fifteen of the 41 patients had spontaneous cessation of their supraventricular tachycardia. The drug most commonly used during the acute and long-term phases was digoxin. Amiodarone was used in six patients with an 80% success rate. In the early 80s verapamil was used in five patients with a 100% success rate. It is important to note that verapamil is no longer used in children due to its side effects. Lately, adenosine phosphate is the drug of choice in most supraventricular tachycardias. The management of supraventricular tachycardias in paediatric practice is mainly based on clinical studies and individual experience. Care must therefore be taken to choose medication regimens that are likely to be effective with the minimum risk of potentiating abnormal haemodynamics or conduction. | Demicheli C, Frézard F, Lecouvey M, Garnier-Suillerot A (2002) Antimony(V) complex formation with adenine nucleosides in aqueous solution. Biochimica et biophysica acta 1570, 192-198 [PubMed:12020809] [show Abstract] Despite the clinical use of pentavalent antimonial drugs for over half a century, their mode of action against leishmaniasis remains poorly understood. In this paper, we investigated the ability of Sb(V) to form in aqueous solution complexes with adenine nucleosides and deoxynucleosides, using circular dichroism (CD) and (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopies. We report that the ribonucleosides, adenosine (A) and adenosine monophosphate (AMP), form in water complexes with Sb(V), as evidenced by the changes induced in their CD spectra. On the other hand, 2'-deoxyadenosine (dA) did not show such a change. CD titration of the ribonucleosides with Sb(V) suggests the formation of 1:2 Sb(V)-nucleoside complexes. NMR analysis indicates that Sb(V) binds to the sugar moiety at the 2' position. Furthermore, the incubation of the antimonial drug, meglumine antimonate, with adenosine at 37 degrees C led to the transfer of Sb(V) from its original ligand to the nucleoside molecule, at acidic pH (pH 5), but not at neutral pH (7.2). Our data therefore suggests that the formation of such complexes may take place in vivo within the acidic cell compartments, including the phagolysosome of macrophage in which Leishmania resides. | Halonen J, Nedergaard J (2002) Adenosine 5'-monophosphate is a selective inhibitor of the brown adipocyte nonselective cation channel. The Journal of membrane biology 188, 183-197 [PubMed:12181610] [show Abstract] Calcium-activated nonselective cation channels (NSC(Ca)) in brown adipocytes are inhibited by several nucleotides acting on the cytosolic side of the membrane. We used excised inside-out patches from rat brown adipocytes to identify important nucleotide structures for NSC-channel inhibition. We found that 100 microM 5'-AMP inhibited NSC-channel activity more than did ATP or ADP. Adenosine was a weak inhibitor, whereas adenine and ribose-5-phosphate had no effect. The channel activity was effectively blocked by 10 microM AMP, but it was unaffected by 10 microM cAMP, CMP, GMP, IMP, TMP or UMP. Dose-response studies yielded IC(50)-values of 4 microM for AMP and 32 microM for cAMP. dAMP was as effective as AMP, but all 5'-phosphate group modifications on AMP dramatically lowered the inhibitory effect. 10 microM of the AMP precursor adenylosuccinate weakly inhibited the channel activity. An increase in AMP concentration from 1 to 10 microM shifted the EC(50) for Ca(2+) activation almost 1 order of magnitude; a Schild plot analysis yielded a K(B) value of 0.3 microM for AMP. We conclude that AMP is the most efficacious endogenous nucleotide inhibitor of the brown adipocyte nonselective cation channel (NSC(Ca/AMP)) yet identified and that there is functional competition between Ca(2+) and AMP. The brown adipocyte NSC(Ca/AMP) thus appears to be functionally different from the NSC(Ca,PKA) in the exocrine pancreas and the NSC-(Ca,cAMP) in the endocrine pancreas, but similar to the NSC(Ca/AMP) in the endocrine pancreas. | Prieto L, Gutiérrez V, Liñana J, Marín J (2001) Bronchoconstriction induced by inhaled adenosine 5'-monophosphate in subjects with allergic rhinitis. The European respiratory journal 17, 64-70 [PubMed:11307758] [show Abstract] Adenosine and its related nucleotide, adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP) induce bronchoconstriction in asthmatics, probably caused by histamine release from airway mast cells. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of inhaled AMP on lung function in subjects with allergic rhinitis. A total of 52 adults (28 subjects with allergic rhinitis, 14 asthmatics and 10 healthy subjects) were challenged with increasing concentrations of AMP and methacholine. Airflow was assessed after each concentration and the response to each bronchoconstrictor agent was measured by the provocative concentration required to produce a 20% fall (PC20) in forced expired volume in one second (FEV1). All 14 asthmatics, 10 subjects with allergic rhinitis and none of the healthy controls were hyperresponsive to AMP. Subjects with allergic rhinitis had higher prevalence of hyperresponsiveness to AMP than healthy controls (p=0.038). Although the prevalence of hyperresponsiveness for methacholine and for AMP in subjects with allergic rhinitis was similar (39% and 36%, respectively), four subjects had hyperresponsiveness to methacholine but not to AMP, whereas three subjects had hyperresponsiveness to AMP but not to methacholine. To conclude, inhaled adenosine 5'-monophosphate causes airway narrowing in a significantly higher proportion of subjects with allergic rhinitis than healthy volunteers. Furthermore, methacholine and adenosine 5'-monophosphate hyperresponsiveness are not detected in the same individuals with allergic rhinitis, thus suggesting that responsiveness to the two bronchoconstrictor stimuli is not reflecting the same abnormalities of the airways. | Munns TW, Freeman SK (1989) Antibody-nucleic acid complexes. Oligo(dG)n and -(dT)n specificities associated with anti-DNA antibodies from autoimmune MRL mice. Biochemistry 28, 10048-10054 [PubMed:2559771] [show Abstract] The specificity of anti-DNA antibodies in the sera of unimmunized autoimmune MRL mice was initially assessed via an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Antibody binding profiles to a panel of immobilized antigens (AMP-, GMP-, CMP-, UMP-, and TMP-BSA, ss- and dsDNA) demonstrated high levels of immunoglobulins reacting with GMP and ssDNA and intermediate levels with AMP, TMP, and dsDNA. Fractionation of serum anti-DNA antibodies into subsets on the basis of their binding to GMP- and TMP-agarose indicated that the resulting GMP- or TMP-reactive antibodies bound to their homologous nucleotides and ssDNA. Competition-inhibition studies with soluble mono-, oligo-, and polynucleotides revealed that GMP- and TMP-reactive antibodies were highly specific for oligo(dG)n and -(dT)n sequences, respectively. Whereas the relative affinity of TMP-reactive autoantibodies to oligo(dT)n increased with oligonucleotide length (n = 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 15), GMP-reactive antibodies preferentially recognized oligo(dG)10 (Ka congruent to 1 x 10(7) M-1). While neither antibody recognized oligo(dA)8 and -(dC)8 competitors, mixed-base oligonucleotides were inhibitory at concentrations approximately 10-fold greater than similarly sized oligo(dG)n and -(dT)n sequences. Similar characterizations of both pooled and individual MRL sera indicated that anti-DNA antibodies represent 8-10% of the total serum IgG. More importantly, GMP-reactive autoantibodies predominated and accounted for 60-70% of the entire unbound anti-DNA antibody population. |
