Description

The present studies were made to elucidate whether the enzymic formation of inosinic acid from various raw materials was possible.<BR>1. The preparation of crystalline Ba-inosinate was attempted from whale or rabbit muscle by the Astern's method, and pure Na-salts were prepared by ion-exchange chromatography.<BR>2. Concerning with the investigation on the natural sources for the inosinic acid formation, it was confirmed that adenine, hypoxanthine, guanine, xanthine, uracil, and thymine were widely distributed in biological materials.<BR>3. Finally, the enzymic formation of nucleosides and nucleotides was carefully tested with animal tissue homogenate, and the formation of inosine and inosinic acid from hypoxanthine and D-ribose was realized with paper chromatography using rat-liver or shellfish homogenate.
