The design and synthesis of inhibitors of Mycobacterium tuberculosis thymidylate kinase (MtTMPK) [PDF]
Thymidylate kinase (TMPK) phosphorylates thymidine 5’-monophosphate (dTMP) and has been proposed as an attractive target for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mt).1 By mimicking the structure of the substrate (dTMP), we have previously discovered different ...

Trypanosoma brucei aquaglyceroporin 2 is a high-affinity transporter for pentamidine and melaminophenyl arsenic drugs and the main genetic determinant of resistance to these drugs. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Trypanosoma brucei drug transporters include the TbAT1/P2 aminopurine transporter and the high-affinity pentamidine transporter (HAPT1), but the genetic identity of HAPT1 is unknown. We recently reported that loss of T.

N,O‐Nucleoside Analogues: Metabolic and Apoptotic Activity
Two new families of N,O‐nucleoside analogues containing the anthracene moiety introduced through the nitrosocarbonyl ene reaction with allylic alcohols were prepared. The core structure is an isoxazolidine heterocycle that introduces either atom either a

Erythrocyte inosine triphosphatase activity is decreased in HIV-seropositive individuals.
BackgroundInosine triphosphatase (ITPase) is encoded by the polymorphic gene ITPA and maintains low intracellular levels of the inosine nucleotides ITP and dITP. The most frequently reported polymorphisms are ITPA c.94C>A (rs 1127354) and ITPA c.
