Abstract

A simple procedure to prepare a stable preparation of bovine liver adenosine kinase was developed. The adenosine kinase was used to phosphorylate a variety of purine nucleosides using ATP or [γ-32P]ATP as the phosphoryl donor. A convenient scheme to purify the nucleotides was also developed.
