The rate of synthesis of AMP is dependent on the concentration of all of the following EXCEPT which one?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

UMP (uridine monophosphate) is not directly involved in the synthesis of AMP (adenosine monophosphate). The synthesis of AMP is regulated by the concentrations of IMP (inosine monophosphate), GMP (guanosine monophosphate), ATP (adenosine triphosphate), and AMP itself, reflecting the purine nucleotide balance and energy status of the cell. UMP, being a pyrimidine nucleotide, does not directly influence the synthesis of AMP, a purine nucleotide.
