The synthesis of phosphoribosylpyrophosphate from glucose decreases during amino acid starvation of human lymphoblasts
Description
Rib-5-P and PP-Rib-P may be produced from glucose via the oxidative and nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway. The autthors attempt to know which of these two pathways provides most of the PP-Rib-P needed for nuceotide synthesis and try to determine the regulation of Rib-5-P synthesis from glucose. The effect of amino acid starvation on the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway was examined by measuring 14CO2 production from (1-14C) glucose
