Sugars and other energy sources were found to lower intracellular concentrations of adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) in strains of Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium which were deficient for cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase. This effect required the presence of the specific transport system responsible for entry of that sugar into the cell and depended on the intracellular catabolic enzymes. Metabolizable sugars were more effective than nonmetabolizable sugars in reducing cellular cyclic AMP levels, and this reduction was blocked partially by uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation. Electron donors such as lactate and ascorbate plus phenazine methosulfate reduced internal cyclic AMP levels in bacterial membrane vesicles which had been preloaded with the cyclic nucleotide. Uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation, but not arsenate, blocked the energy-stimulated loss of intravesicular cyclic AMP. Employing intact cells, sugars were shown to have two primary effects on cyclic AMP metabolism: (a) they inhibited net synthesis of the cyclic nucleotide while promoting its degradation, and (b) they stimulated efflux of cyclic AMP into the extracellular fluid. While the former effect was elicited by metabolizable and nonmetabolizable sugars alike, stimulation of cyclic nucleotide excretion was only observed with metabolizable sugars. The results suggest that the extrusion of cyclic AMP from the bacterial cell is energy-dependent and is driven by an energized membrane state.
