Exposure of HeLa cells to tetraphenylphosphonium cation (TPP+) results in a rapid accumulation intracellularly, and a steady-state level is reached within 10 min. Accumulation of [3H]TPP+ in HeLa cells is reduced under the following conditions: (i) after preincubation of cells in buffered saline or in medium containing two- to fourfold higher concentrations of amino acids, (ii) exposure to the alkylating agent L-1-tosylamido-2-phenyl-ethylchloromethyl ketone, (iii) ouabain-mediated inhibition of the Na+, K+ ATPase, and (iv) high external K+ concentrations. In contrast, addition of serum increases the uptake of TPP+. In synchronized cells, intracellular levels of TPP+ differ at various stages of cell cycle and are lowest in mitosis.

We have cloned CDC9, the structural gene for Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA ligase, and investigated its transcriptional regulation both as a function of cell cycle stage and after UV irradiation. The steady-state level of DNA ligase mRNA increases at least fourfold in late G1, after the completion of start but before S phase. This high level of CDC9 mRNA then decays with an apparent half-life of ca. 20 min and remains at a low basal level throughout the rest of the cell cycle. The accumulation of CDC9 mRNA in late G1 is dependent upon the completion of start but not the CDC7 and CDC8 functions. Exposure of cells to UV light elicits an eightfold increase in DNA ligase mRNA levels.
