Biosynthetic Enzymes of Tetrahydrolimipterin from Green Sulfur Bacterium Chlorobium Limicola

open access: yesPteridines, 1998
Based on the structure of limipterin (Cha, Pfleiderer, and Yim, Helv, Chim. Acta, 78: 600-614. 1995 the biosynthetic pathway for the newly identified pterin glycoside was investigated. It was demonstrated that tetrahydrolimipterin (H4 -limipterin) can be

Immunological impact of tetrahydrobiopterin on the central nervous system in a murine model of rabies virus infection

open access: yesRevista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2021
Currently, the Milwaukee protocol presents healing results in human beings affected by the rabies virus. However, there are many points to clarify on the action of drugs and the immune mechanism involved in the evolution of the disease.

Diagnosis of tetrahydrobiopterin deficiency using filter paper blood spots: further development of the method and 5 years experience [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In every newborn with even mild hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) deficiencies need to be excluded as soon as possible. Differential diagnosis is most commonly performed by analysis of urinary neopterin and biopterin.

Exploring the scope of DBU-promoted amidations of 7-carboxymethyl-pterin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Pteridines are an important heterocycle often used in the development of pharmaceutically relevant compounds, and in the field of supramolecular chemistry.

A unique dual activity amino acid hydroxylase in Toxoplasma gondii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The genome of the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii was found to contain two genes encoding tyrosine hydroxylase; that produces L-DOPA. The encoded enzymes metabolize phenylalanine as well as tyrosine with substrate preference for tyrosine.

Hippo Pathway Drives Durable Non‐Cell‐Autonomous Ferroptosis Resistance in Lung Cancer

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
YAP/TAZ, key effectors in lung cancer progression, paradoxically sensitize tumor cells to ferroptosis. This study reveals that YAP/TAZ‐low cells confer non‐cell‐autonomous, GCH1‐mediated durable ferroptosis resistance to neighboring YAP/TAZ‐high cells via a soluble factor, highlighting a Hippo pathway‐linked mechanism of tumor adaptation and survival ...

Increasing Tetrahydrobiopterin in Cardiomyocytes Adversely Affects Cardiac Redox State and Mitochondrial Function Independently of Changes in NO Production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) represents a potential strategy for the treatment of cardiac remodeling, fibrosis and/or diastolic dysfunction. The effects of oral treatment with BH4 (Sapropterin™ or Kuvan™) are however dose-limiting with high dose negating ...

Leishmania donovani's protein tyrosine phosphatases interact with DUF21 and respond to environmental magnesium

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The Leishmania phosphatase PTP1, and possibly the genetically similar PTP2, interacts with the Leishmania transmembrane protein DUF21. When both ptp1 and ptp2 are knocked out of Leishmania (LdΔPTP1/2), the parasite can no longer survive without magnesium in vitro and has reduced viability in the host macrophage. Conversely, in duf21 knockout (LdΔDUF21),

Plasma Nitrate and Pteridine Levels in Experimental Bacteremia in Baboons

open access: yesPteridines, 1995
Using a recently developed model of bacterially induced sepsis in baboons, we studied the time courses of pteridine and nitrate levels in plasma with regard to the dose of Escherichia coli. Eight animals were given a 2 h infusion of 2X 10" Colony Forming

First Synthesis of Asperopterin A, an Isoxanthopterin Glycoside from Aspergillus Oryzae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The key precursor, N-2-(N,N -dimethylaminomethylene)-6-hydroxymethyl-8-methyl-3-[2-(4-nitrophenyl)ethyl]-7-xanthopterin (16) was efficiently prepared from 2,5-diamino-6-methylamino-3H-pyrimidin-4-one (5) and ethyl 3-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)-2 ...
