Adenine deaminase and adenine utilization in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
Compared with other purine salvage and nitrogen catabolism enzymatic activities, adenine deaminase (adenine aminohydrolase [AAH]; EC 3.5.4.2) activity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is uniquely regulated. AAH specific activity is not induced by adenine and is reduced sevenfold when cells are cultivated in medium containing proline in place of ammonium as ...

Adsorption of Nucleic Acid Bases, Ribose, and Phosphate by Some Clay Minerals
Besides having a large capacity for taking up organic molecules, clay minerals can catalyze a variety of organic reactions. Derived from rock weathering, clay minerals would have been abundant in the early Earth. As such, they might be expected to play a

Adenine-Induced Nephropathy Reduces Atherosclerosis in ApoE Knockout Mice [PDF]
Background: Cardiovascular events are the main cause of death in patients with chronic kidney disease. We hypothesize that the protective effects of renal cholesterol and vitamin D(3) metabolism are lost under this condition.

Adenine and Thymine Effect on Quartz Dissolution at Different Artificial Seawaters
According to Bernal (1951) minerals may have played important roles in the origin of life such as: protect biomolecules against degradation by UV radiation or hydrolysis, pre-concentrate biomolecules from prebiotic seas and formation of polymers.

Aggregation of nucleobases and metabolites: Adenine-theobromine trimers [PDF]
The selection of cytosine, guanine, thymine, and adenine as components of the information biopolymers was a complex process influenced by several factors. Among them, the intermolecular interactions may have played a determinant role.

Intracellular ATP influences synaptic plasticity in area CA1 of rat hippocampus via metabolism to adenosine and activity-dependent activation of adenosine A1 receptors [PDF]
The extent to which brain slices reflect the energetic status of the in vivo brain has been a subject of debate. We addressed this issue to investigate the recovery of energetic parameters and adenine nucleotides in rat hippocampal slices and the ...
