Myeloid marrow was rapidly removed from femurs of fasting young rabbits, sectioned, and incubated in Krebs-bicarbonate-CO2-oxygen buffer with appropriate C14-labeled precursors. All manipulations were designed to preserve the architecture of the tissue. After 1 hr the protein or nucleic acid-adenine was isolated and purified. Insulin, 0.01 U/ml added in vitro, stimulated histidine-2(ring)-C14 incorporation into protein by 26 ± 1.4%; alkali-treated insulin was inactive. Thyroxin elicited a 49.4 ± 2.1% stimulation at an optimum concentration of 10–7 m. Triiodothyronine, but not diiodothyronine, also had a significant effect. Insulin increased incorporation of carbon from adenosine-8-C14 into adenine of ribonucleic acid and deoxyribonucleic acid. Thyroxin, on the other hand, was without consistent effect on this process. Thyroxin stimulated significantly the incorporation of C14 of glycine-2-C14 into adenine. The possibility that part of the anabolic effect of thyroxin on bone marrow may arise from a stimulus to incorporation of precursors into purines is suggested.

Reaction of tubercidin (4-amino-7-β-D-ribofuranosylpyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine) (1) with α-acetoxyisobutyryl chloride in the presence of excess sodium iodide in acetonitrile gave an acylated iodo intermediate (2) which was converted into 3′-deoxytubercidin (4) by hydrogenolysis and subsequent saponification.Analogous treatment of formycin (7-amino-3-β-D-ribofuranosylpyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidine) (5) gave 3′-deoxyformycin (6) and 2′-deoxyformycin (7) in an approximate ratio of 3:2. These purified nucleosides, 6 and 7 were individually deaminated enzymatically to give 3′-deoxyformycin B (8) and 2′-deoxyformycin B(9).Biological rationale, n.m.r., and mass spectra of these antibiotic-derived deoxynucleosides are discussed.
