•
Free purines (adenine, guanine, and hypoxanthine) can be reconverted
to their corresponding nucleotides through salvage pathways.
In mammals purines are salvaged by 2 enzymes
Adeninephosphoribosyltransferase (APRT)
Adenine + PRPP  AMP + PPi
Hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT)
Hypoxanthine + PRPP  IMP + PPi
Guanine + PRPP  GMP + PPi
Synthesis of pyrimidines

•
•
•
Pyrimidines are simpler to synthesize than purines.

Overview of dNTP biosynthesis
One enzyme, ribonucleotide reductase,
reduces all four ribonucleotides to their
deoxyribose derivatives.
A free radical mechanism is involved
in the ribonucleotide reductase
reaction.
There are three classes of ribonucleotide
reductase enzymes in nature:
Class I: tyrosine radical, uses NDP
Class II: adenosylcobalamin. uses NTPs
(cyanobacteria, some bacteria,
Euglena).
Class III: SAM and Fe-S to generate
radical, uses NTPs.
(anaerobes and fac. anaerobes).
