8-Bromoadenosine 5′-triphosphate (8-Br-ATP) is as an ATP analogue used in conjunction with other ATP analogues to study and resolve ATP-site binding effects on receptor and enzyme function and specificity.

The nucleotide substrate specificity of yeast poly(A) polymerase (yPAP) toward various C-2- and C-8-modified ATP analogs was examined. 32P-Radiolabeled RNA oligonucleotide primers were incubated with yPAP in the absence of ATP to assay polyadenylation using unnatural ATP substrates. The C-2-modified
We have recently characterised the presence of a Ca2(+)-mobilising receptor for ATP which stimulates exocytosis in differentiated HL60 cells. Here we demonstrate that the undifferentiated HL60 cells also respond to extracellular ATP by stimulating an increase in inositol phosphates and

Numerous analytical experiments have shown that, in solution, ATP analogues with bulky substitutions at the eighth position of the adenine ring predominantly assume the syn conformation with respect to the adenine-ribose bond. Two such analogues, 3'-O-(N-methylanthraniloyl)-8-azido-ATP (Mant-8-N3-ATP) and 8-Br-ATP, were

Previous studies using solubilized fragments of myosins have shown that an ATP analogue, 8-bromoadenosine triphosphate (8-Br-ATP) is a poor substrate for fast skeletal myosin isoform. We further characterized the analogue by using vertebrate skeletal muscle fibers. In the absence of

1. Extracellular adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) activated an early excitatory conductance followed by a late potassium conductance in developing chick skeletal muscle. A series of ATP analogues were tested for their ability to activate these two conductances. All compounds tested were
