Abstract

Spatial control of cellular enzymes Purine is a building block of DNA and also a component of ATP that is used as an energy source in the cell. Enzymes involved in purine biosynthesis organize into dynamic bodies called purinosomes. French et al. found that purinosomes colocalize with mitochondria, organelles that generate ATP (see the Perspective by Ma and Jones). Dysregulation of mitochondria caused an increase in the number of purinosomes. This suggests a synergy, with the purinosomes supplying the purine required for ATP production and in turn using ATP in the biosynthetic pathway. A master regulator of cellular metabolism, mTOR, appears to mediate the association of purinosomes and mitochondria. This could make purine and ATP synthesis responsive to changes in the metabolic needs of the cell. Science , this issue p. 733 ; see also p. 670
