Oxidation and cleavage of 3-aminopyridine adenine dinucleotide phosphate with periodate.
Treatment of 3-aminopyridine adenine dinucleotide phosphate with sodium periodate in the neutral pH resulted in oxidation of the ribose linked to 3-aminopyridine and cleavage of the dinucleotide into adenosine- and 3-aminopyridine-containing moieties. Separation of these moieties was afforded by thin-layer chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, and fast protein liquid chromatography. From fast atom bombardment mass spectra and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra, the adenosine-containing moiety was identified as 2'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphate while the aminopyridine moiety was present in a mixture of the hydrated 3-aminopyridine mononucleotide/nucleoside dialdehyde. Separation of the completely oxidized product by Pharmacia fast protein liquid chromatography gave three major peaks corresponding to 2'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphate, 2'-phosphoadenosine 5'-diphosphate and oxidized 3-aminopyridine nucleoside, with minor amount of oxidized 3-aminopyridine mononucleotide. Thus the oxidized 3-aminopyridine adenine dinucleotide phosphate was shown to cleave by two pathways: it may either undergo beta-elimination to give 2'-phosphoadenosine 5'-diphosphate and oxidized 3-aminopyridine nucleoside; or the phosphodiester linkage may be hydrolyzed to give 2'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphate and oxidized 3-aminopyridine mononucleotide. The latter compound may further undergo beta-elimination and eventually give oxidized 3-aminopyridine nucleoside. Hydrolysis could be prevented by storing the sample as lyophilized powder, while beta-elimination was diminished by lowering the storage temperature. We found that the lyophilized powder of oxidized 3-aminopyridine adenine dinucleotide phosphate can be stored at -50 degrees C for several months with minimum decomposition.[1]References
