| Abstract | The synthesis of a new analogue of ADP, 2-(p-azidophenyl)-ethythioadenosine 5'-diphosphate (AzPET-ADP), is described. This compound contains a photolabile phenylazide group attached to the ADP molecule by a thioether link at the purine 2 position. It has been prepared in radioactive form with 32P in the beta-phosphate at a specific radioactivity of 100 mCi/mumol. The reagent activated platelets, causing shape change and aggregation, with somewhat lower affinity than ADP. On photolysis the affinity was increased. The reagent also inhibited platelet adenylate cyclase stimulation by prostaglandin E1, with considerably higher affinity than ADP. On photolysis the affinity was decreased. AzPET-ADP competitively inhibited the binding of 2-methylthio[beta-32P]ADP, a ligand for the receptor by which ADP causes inhibition of adenylate cyclase. In the dark, AzPET-[beta-32P]ADP bound reversibly and with high affinity to a single population of sites similar in number to the sites that bind 2-methylthio[beta-32P]ADP. Binding was inhibited by ADP and by ATP and by p-chloromercuribenzenesulphonic acid (pCMBS). On exposure to u.v. light in the presence of platelets, AzPET-[beta-32P]ADP was incorporated covalently but non-specifically into several platelet proteins, although prominent intracellular proteins were not labelled. Specific labelling was confined to a single region of SDS/polyacrylamide gels, overlying but not comigrating with actin. Incorporation of radioactivity into this region was inhibited by ADP and by ATP as well as by ADP beta S, ATP alpha S and pCMBS, but not by adenosine, GDP or AMP. Inhibition of AzPET-[beta-32P]ADP incorporation was closely correlated with inhibition of equilibrium binding of 2-methylthio[beta-32P]ADP. These results suggests that the labelled protein, which migrates with an apparent molecular mass of 43 kDa in reduced gels, is the receptor through which ADP inhibits adenylate cyclase. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
