Allosteric regulation accompanied by oligomeric state changes of Trypanosoma brucei GMP reductase through cystathionine-β-synthase domain

Nature Communications, 2020
Trypanosoma brucei guanosine 5′-monophosphate reductase (TbGMPR) catalyses the conversion of GMP to inosine 5′-monophosphate and contains a cystathionine-β-synthase (CBS) domain. Here the authors combine X-ray crystallography and kinetic measurements and

Mitochondrial adenine nucleotide transport and cardioprotection [PDF]

Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, 2012
Mitochondria are highly metabolically active cell organelles that not only act as the powerhouse of the cell by supplying energy through ATP production, but also play a destructive role by initiating cell death pathways. Growing evidence recognizes that mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the major causes of cardiovascular disease.

Assessment of adipokines, adenine nucleotides and uric acid in the dynamics of coronary intervention

Open Life Sciences, 2015
Introduction: The association of vaspin and visfatin, with a myocardial infarction is still not fully understood. Reduced levels of adenine nucleotides are hallmarks of chronic heart failure. There is little data concerning the relationship between these

Raman depolarization ratios in RNA and DNA are sensitive for sugar-base coupling [PDF]

, 1995
Polarized and depolarized Raman spectra are obtained for a number of synthetic polynucleotides containing adenine, uracil, and thymine bases. The depolarization ratios are determined by two methods: (1) by dividing the -spectrum by the -spectrum and (2 ...

Characteristic mutations induced in the small intestine of Msh2-knockout gpt delta mice

Genes and Environment, 2021
Background Base pair mismatches in genomic DNA can result in mutagenesis, and consequently in tumorigenesis. To investigate how mismatch repair deficiency increases mutagenicity under oxidative stress, we examined the type and frequency of mutations ...

Identification, Heterologous Expression, and Functional Characterization of Bacillus subtilis YutF, a HAD Superfamily 5'-Nucleotidase with Broad Substrate Specificity. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
5'-nucleotidases (EC 3.1.3.5) catalyze the hydrolytic dephosphorylation of 5'-ribonucleotides and 5'-deoxyribonucleotides as well as complex nucleotides, such as uridine 5'-diphosphoglucose (UDP-glucose), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and flavin ...
