Starvation of the polyamine-dependent Chinese-hamster ovary cells for ornithine or ornithine-derived polyamines in serum-free culture resulted in the formation of cadaverine and its aminopropyl derivatives, N-(3-aminopropyl)cadaverine and NN'-bis(3-aminopropyl)cadaverine. The synthesis of these unusual amines was inhibited by treatment of the cells with DL-2-difluoromethylornithine, a specific inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.17). In the absence of ornithine (the normal substrate), ornithine decarboxylase thus appeared to catalyse the decarboxylation of lysine to cadaverine. Cell proliferation was markedly inhibited by ornithine deprivation of the cells, and further depressed by exposure of the cultures to difluoromethylornithine.
