Chemoenzymatic Assembly of Isotopically Labeled Folates [PDF]
Pterin-containing natural products have diverse functions in life but an efficient and easy scheme for their in vitro synthesis is not available. Here, we report a chemo-enzymatic 14-step, one-pot synthesis that can be used to generate 13C- and 15N ...

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is associated with increased concentrations of neopterin derivatives, released in large quantities by human macrophages on stimulation with interferon-gamma (INF-gamma). Neopterin concentrations thus inversely

Lokiarchaeon is hydrogen dependent [PDF]
The nature of host that acquired the mitochondrion at eukaryote origin (the host) is an important microbial evolutionary issue. Modern phylogenetics indicate that the host was an archaeon.

Cerebrospinal fluid neopterin analysis in neuropediatric patients: establishment of a new cut off-value for the identification of inflammatory-immune mediated processes [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: A high level of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) neopterin is a marker of central nervous system inflammatory-immune mediated processes. We aimed to assess data from 606 neuropediatric patients, describing the clinical and biochemical features of ...

Biochemical and structural characterisation of enzymes of the riboflavin- and folic acid biosynthesis [PDF]
Die Riboflavinsynthase (RS) katalysiert den letzten Schritt der Riboflavinbiosynthese. Die gereinigte RS aus Schizosaccharomyces pombe wurde in Gegenwart von 6-Carboxyethyl-7-oxo-8-ribityllumazin kristalisiert und die Komplex-Struktur durch MAD gelöst ...

Neopterin levels are independently associated with cardiac remodeling in patients with chronic heart failure [PDF]
Neopterin, a marker of inflammation and monocyte activation, is found increased in patients with heart failure (HF). This study investigates whether neopterin levels correlate with left ventricular (LV) remodeling and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), a ...

The plant Nudix hydrolase family. [PDF]
Nudix hydrolases are a family of proteins defined by a conserved amino-acid sequence GX(5)-EX(7)REUXEEXGU, where U is a hydrophobic residue. These enzymes are widely distributed among all classes of organisms and catalyze, with varying degrees of ...

ResBoost: characterizing and predicting catalytic residues in enzymes [PDF]
Background Identifying the catalytic residues in enzymes can aid in understanding the molecular basis of an enzyme's function and has significant implications for designing new drugs, identifying genetic disorders, and engineering proteins with novel ...

Radical-mediated ring contraction in the biosynthesis of 7-deazapurines [PDF]
Pyrrolopyrimidine containing natural products are widely distributed in Nature. The biosynthesis of the 7-deazapurine moiety that is common to all pyrrolopyrimidines entails multiple steps, one of which is a complex radical-mediated ring contraction ...
