This paper describes enzymatic syntheses of 5-phospho-D-ribosyl .alpha.-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP) on a 75-mmol scale. The reactions used PAN-immobilized PRPP synthetase as catalyst with in situ ATP-cofactor regeneration. In one procedure pure r-5-P was used as a starting material; in a second, r-5-P was synthesized by ribokinase-catalyzed phosphorylation of D-ribose and used in situ. The potential for use of PRPP as a starting material for the preparation of nucleotides was demonstrated by an enzymatic synthesis of UMP. This paper also describes several methods for the preparation of r-5-P; acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of AMP, acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of a crude mononucleotide mixture obtained by digestion of RNA, chemical synthesis from D-ribose and ribokinase-catalyzed synthesis from D-ribose. Procedures are described for the isolation of PRPP synthetase (from Salmonella typhimurium) and ribokinase (from Lactobacillus plantarum) and for the immobilization of these enzymes in PAN.
