In isolated rat diaphragms, only those substrates that increased the tissue NADH/NAD+ ratio lowered the rate of proteolysis. However, direct inhibition of proteinase activity by leupeptin promoted oxidation of the NAD couple of the muscles. These results suggest that changes in muscle reduction-oxidation state may be important in the regulation of proteolysis.

Administration of adrenaline to an isolated rat hindlimb preparation rapidly decreased muscle phosphorylase phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.17) activity and increased heat-stable and trypsin-labile phosphatase inhibitor activity. This was associated with increased tissue cyclic AMP concentrations, phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.1) activation and glycogen synthase (EC 2.4.1.11) inactivation.

Purine biosynthesis by the ‘de novo’ pathway was demonstrated in isolated rat extensor digitorum longus muscle with [1-14C]glycine, [3-14C]serine and sodium [14C]formate as nucleotide precursors. Evidence is presented which suggests that the source of glycine and serine for purine biosynthesis is extracellular rather than intracellular. The relative incorporation rates of the three precursors were formate greater than glycine greater than serine. Over 85% of the label from formate and glycine was recovered in the adenine nucleotides, principally ATP. Azaserine markedly inhibited purine biosynthesis from both formate and glycine. Cycloserine inhibited synthesis from serine, but not from formate. Adenine, hypoxanthine and adenosine markedly inhibited purine synthesis from sodium [14C]formate.
