Preparation of 4 '-spirocyclobutyl nucleoside analogues as novel and versatile adenosine scaffolds

, 2019
Despite the large variety of modified nucleosides that have been reported, the preparation of constrained 4 '-spirocyclic adenosine analogues has received very little attention.

Aminoribosylated Analogues of Muraymycin Nucleoside Antibiotics [PDF]

Molecules, 2018
Nucleoside antibiotics are uridine-derived natural products that inhibit the bacterial membrane protein MraY. MraY is a key enzyme in the membrane-associated intracellular stages of peptidoglycan biosynthesis and therefore considered to be a promising, yet unexploited target for novel antibacterial agents. Muraymycins are one subclass of such naturally

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

BNB/NBN‐Phenalenyl‐2'‐deoxyuridines as a Fluorophore–Quencher Pair in DNA

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Two BN‐chromophore‐extended nucleosides containing electronically complementary BNB‐ and NBN‐doped phenalenyls were synthesised and incorporated into deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) oligonucleotides. These chromophores act as an efficient fluorophore–quencher pair under aqueous conditions.

Identifying transcription factors controlling the basal expression of human MRP4 highlights a substantial role for Sp1

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The MRP4 transporter exports several drugs and signaling molecules. Here, we identified key promoter elements regulating basal MRP4 expression. Using reporter assays, we defined a conserved region with essential Sp1 and contributory Ets sites, which controlled basal MRP4 expression.

Chemical Metabolomics: Chemical Biology Tools for Advanced Metabolism Investigations

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The human metabolism has been investigated for several millennia. The metabolome is known for a high complexity due to a large number of different metabolites that are present at different concentrations. Metabolomics has been developed as a field to investigate the entire human metabolome and to elucidate disease development mechanisms.

Synthesis and Cytostatic Effect of 3’-deoxy-3’-C-Sulfanylmethyl Nucleoside Derivatives with d-xylo Configuration

Molecules, 2019
A small library of 3’-deoxy-C3’-substituted xylofuranosyl-pyrimidine nucleoside analogues were prepared by photoinduced thiol-ene addition of various thiols, including normal and branched alkyl-, 2-hydroxyethyl, benzyl-, and sugar thiols, to ...

Targeting Post‐Irradiation Thyroid Dysfunction: Electrospun Scaffolds As A Dual‐Action Approach for Antioxidant and Immune Modulation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Radiation‐induced hypothyroidism follows head and neck radiotherapy due to oxidative stress and inflammation. Electrospun polycaprolactone scaffolds containing adenosine have potential to modulate thyroid repair. Scaffolds enhance thyrocyte proliferation, antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase and catalase, reduce senescence and apoptosis markers ...

Alkyltransferase Ribozyme for Site‐Specific N4‐Cytidine Alkylation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
CSAR is the first ribozyme that catalyzes direct alkylation of an exocyclic amino group of an RNA nucleobase. The ribozyme was isolated as a self‐labeling catalyst from an in vitro selection library and engineered into a trans‐active ribozyme that catalyzes the transfer of a benzyl group from an O6‐modifed guanine to the N4 amino group of a specific ...
