Purine metabolism and phosphoribosylpyrophosphate content of lymphocytes and erythrocytes were studied in an immunocompetent black male child with a total deficiency of erythrocyte and partial deficiency of lymphocyte adenosine deaminase. The partial genetic deficiency of adenosine deaminase was demonstrated in intact lymphocytes, and was approximately one third of the deaminating activity of control lymphocytes. Intact lymphocytes of the patient did not incorporate adenosine at a faster rate than those of control lymphocytes. The patient's erythrocytes deaminating activity was low and adenine ribonucleotide synthesis from adenosine was increased several fold, while adenine incorporation into purine ribonucleotides was comparable to that of control erythrocytes. Transfusion with packed erythrocytes temporarily improved the deaminating capacity of circulating erythrocytes, but did not reduce the elevated incorporation of adenosine into purine ribonucleotides. Phosphoribosylpyrophosphate content of the patient's lymphocytes and erythrocytes was not diminished. Incubation of erythrocytes with adenosine lowered phosphoribosylpyrophosphate content while incubation with phosphate increased phosphoribosylpyrophosphate content to the same extent in mutant and control erythrocytes.
