Synthesis of phosphodiester-type nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide analogs [PDF]
, 2009 Fourteen phosphodiester-type beta-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) analogs were prepared starting from nicotinamide. The phosphodiester linkage was effectively assembled in 69-93% yields via condensation reaction between 2'.3'-di-O-acetyl ...

Antagonism of Morphine Analgesia by Adenine, Adenosine, and Adenine Nucleotides
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1973 SummaryAntagonism of the antinociceptive action of morphine in mice by prior parenteral administration of cAMP has been confirmed using two additional analgesic testing procedures, the hot-plate test and the stretching test. The analgesia-antagonistic property, however, is not specific for cAMP because it also occurred after pretreatment with compounds

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.
