    Abstract:
    The dynamics of phosphomonoesters, phosphodiesters, Pi, ATP, ADP, NAD(H+) and uridine diphosphoglucose (UDPG) levels in rat liver upon sharp oscillations in the rates of protein and nucleic acid biosynthesis induced by a sublethal++ dose of cycloheximide was studied, using the 31P-NMR method. The results obtained with preparations of native liver are unaffected by fractionation, homogenization and chemical extraction procedures. It was demonstrated that oscillations of Pi, ATP and UDPG levels in liver cells reflect the changes in the energy consumption and intracellular energy-linked processes (e.g., glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, glycogen synthesis and consumption) under conditions of variable macromolecular synthesis rates. The oscillations in phosphomonoesters and phosphodiesters levels are mainly due to cycloheximide-induced lipid metabolism disturbances.
