| Popis: | Conditions for the biochemical and flow cytometric assay of 7-bromo-3-hydroxy-2-naphtho-o-anisidine phosphatase and beta-D-glucuronidase activities in Chinese hamster ovary cells were studied. In the biochemical assay, the pH optimum for the phosphatase activity was pH 4.6 with a Km of 10(-5) M; the pH optimum for beta-D-glucuronidase activity was pH 5.0 with a Km of 2 x 10(-5) M. For intact cells the derived constants were 3 to 10 times higher. The rate of hydrolysis of both substrates was also examined by flow cytometry. Cellular fluorescence increased linearly for only about 15 min. Diffusion of the fluorescent product probably caused nonlinearity of the fluorescence increase and was demonstrated by mixing cells incubated with substrate with those that had not been incubated. After 15 min, cells that had not been exposed previously to product or substrate contained the fluorescent product. Cells fractionated into size classes by centrifugal elutriation also were analyzed by flow cytometry for beta-D-glucuronidase activity. The activity increased linearly with the increase in cell size corresponding to the progression from G1 through S and into G2-M phases of the cell cycle. |
