Probabilistic models of biological enzymatic polymerization.
In this study, hierarchies of probabilistic models are evaluated for their ability to characterize the untemplated addition of adenine and uracil to the 3' ends of mitochondrial mRNAs of the human pathogen Trypanosoma brucei, and for their generative ...

Interaction of low-energy electrons with the purine bases, nucleosides, and nucleotides of DNA [PDF]
The authors report results from computational studies of the interaction of low-energy electrons with the purine bases of DNA, adenine and guanine, as well as with the associated nucleosides, deoxyadenosine and deoxyguanosine, and the nucleotide ...

Pathways of adenine nucleotide catabolism in erythrocytes. [PDF]
The exact pathway whereby the initial catabolism of the adenine nucleotides proceeds from AMP and the possibility of a recycling of adenosine were investigated in human erythrocytes. Adenine nucleotide catabolism, reflected by the production of hypoxanthine, is very slow under physiologic conditions and can be greatly increased by suppression of ...

The Human SLC25A33 and SLC25A36 Genes of Solute Carrier Family 25 Encode Two Mitochondrial Pyrimidine Nucleotide Transporters [PDF]
The human genome encodes 53 members of the solute carrier family 25 (SLC25), also called the mitochondrial carrier family, many of which have been shown to transport inorganic anions, amino acids, carboxylates, nucleotides, and coenzymes across the inner

Using in silico models to simulate dual perturbation experiments: procedure development and interpretation of outcomes. [PDF]
BackgroundA growing number of realistic in silico models of metabolic functions are being formulated and can serve as 'dry lab' platforms to prototype and simulate experiments before they are performed.

Binding of adenine nucleotides to mitochondrial membrane [PDF]
It has been reported from different laboratories [l-4] that mitochondria are capable of binding ATP. However the exact magnitude of binding, and the relevance of this process to the mechanism of oxidative phosphorylation are still unknown, due to the extremely low amounts of bound nucleotides, and to some difficulties in carrying out the measurements ...

Highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses with H5 and H7 hemagglutinin (HA) subtypes evolve from low-pathogenic precursors through the acquisition of multiple basic amino acid residues at the HA cleavage site. Although this mechanism has been observed to

Hoogsteen base pairs proximal and distal to echinomycin binding sites on DNA [PDF]
Forms of the DNA double helix containing non-Watson-Crick base-pairing have been discovered recently based on x-ray diffraction analysis of quinoxaline antibiotic-oligonucleotide complexes.

Water-mediated recognition of t1-adenosine anchors Argonaute2 to microRNA targets
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) direct post-transcriptional regulation of human genes by guiding Argonaute proteins to complementary sites in messenger RNAs (mRNAs) targeted for repression.
