With 2',3'-O-isopropylideneadenosine or its N6-benzoyl derivative as starting material, synthetic routes to two novel adducts of L-methionine and beta,gamma-imido-ATP have been devised. One adduct, 14 (2:3 mixture of 6' epimers), had a P alpha OCH(R1)CH2 system [R1 = CH2-L-SCH2CH2CH2CH(NH2)CO2H] in place of the P alpha OC(5')H2 system of ATP, while the other, 16 (2:3 mixture of 5' epimers), had a P alpha OCH2CH2CH(R2) system [R2 = L-SCH2CH2CH(NH2)CO2H]. The ribose-P alpha bridge in 14 and 16 contained one more methylene group than in two homologous methionine-ATP adducts studied previously. Adduct 14 was a potent inhibitor of the rat M-2 (normal tissue) and M-T (Novikoff ascitic hepatoma) variants of methionine adenosyltransferase and gave competitive kinetics vs MgATP (Ki = 0.39 and 0.63 microM, respectively) or vs L-methionine (Ki = 2.2 and 2.7 microM). Adduct 16 was likewise a potent inhibitor competitive vs MgATP (Ki = 0.44 and 0.81 microM, respectively) or L-methionine (Ki = 2.1 and 1.5 microM). The kinetic data indicate that 14 and 16 inhibit by binding simultaneously to the MgATP and L-methionine substrate sites and that the extra methylene group facilitates the interaction of their methionine residues with these methionine sites.
