  • Title: Inhibitory effects of 3'-modified UTP analogues on DNA-dependent RNA polymerase I and II purified from cherry salmon (Onchorhynchus masou) liver.

    Abstract:
    Various 1-beta-D-xylofuranosyl-5-substituted uracil 5'-triphosphates were synthesized and their inhibitory effects on DNA-dependent RNA polymerase I and II, which were purified from cherry salmon (Onchorhynchus masou) liver, were examined. The results were as follows: 1) Xylo UTP and xylo TTP were strongly inhibited for both RNA polymerase I and II. 2) 5-Ethyl, 5-n-propyl and 5-n-butyl derivatives showed little inhibitory effect on RNA polymerase I while RNA polymerase II activity was strongly affected by these derivatives. 3) Four kinds of 5-halogenated derivatives including fluoro, chloro, bromo and iodo substituent inhibited both RNA polymerase I and II in almost same extent. 4) The mode of inhibition was, in all cases, competitive with UTP.
