Regulation of Purine Biosynthesis. The PRPP amidotransferase enzyme exists as an active monomer and an inactive polymer (see Introduction to Metabolism Lecture). IMP, GMP and AMP all inactivate the enzyme causing a shift towards the polymerized inactive form. PRPP causes a shift towards the active monomeric form.
Colchicine inhibits microtubule polymerization by binding to tubulin, one of the main constituents of microtubules. Availability of tubulin is essential to mitosis, so colchicine effectively functions as a mitotic poison or spindle poison.The mitosis-inhibiting function of colchicine has been of great use in the study of cellular genetics.vailability of tubulin is essential to mitosis, so colchicine effectively functions as a mitotic poison or spindle poison.
