Combined familial adenosine deaminase and purine nucleoside phosphorylase deficiencies. [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Disease in Childhood, 1988
We studied an Arab family in which two infants died of severe combined immunodeficiency caused by adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency. One infant had purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) activity in the leucocytes only half that of normal. Four other infant siblings had previously died from infections before the age of 2 months.

Energy metabolism during the maturation of reticulocyte in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 1968
1. For the purpose to clarify the mechanism of the revolutional changes in energy metabolism during the reticulocyte maturation the metabolisms of glucose and of the pentose moieties of acid soluble nucleotides have been observed on rabbit reticulocytes ...

New insights into the biological role of mammalian ADARs; the RNA editing proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The ADAR proteins deaminate adenosine to inosine in double-stranded RNA which is one of the most abundant modifications present in mammalian RNA.

Adenosine deaminase production by an endophytic bacterium (Lysinibacillus sp.) from Avicennia marina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The present study was carried out with the following objectives: (1) to isolate the endophytic bacilli strains from the leaves of mangrove plant Avicennia marina, (2) to screen the potential strains for the production of adenosine deaminase, (3) to ...

Nucleoside deaminase: an enzymatic marker for stress erythropoiesis in the mouse [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 1970
The level of nucleoside deaminase was determined in extracts of mouse tissues obtained during a period of accelerated erythropoiesis induced by hypoxia, hemorrhage, or the injection of phenylhydrazine. Under these conditions a striking (10- to 100-fold) elevation of the enzyme activity occurred in the spleen.

The role of dinucleoside polyphosphates on the ocular surface and other eye structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Dinucleoside polyphosphates comprises a group of dinucleotides formed by two nucleosides linked by a variable number of phosphates, abbreviated NpnN (where n represents the number of phosphates). These compounds are naturally occurring substances present

Dextran-Linked Purine Nucleosides as Substrates and Inhibitors of Adenosine Deaminase [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1982
Dextran-bound adenosine, inosine, and nebularine have been prepared by carbodiimide coupling of their 2',3'-O-(4-carboxyethyl-1-methylbutylidene) cyclic acetal derivatives to 6-aminohexyldextran or 12-aminododecanyldextran. The latter polymers were prepared by cyanogen-bromide activation of dextran T80 followed by reaction with 1,6-diaminohexane or 1 ...

Cell cycle regulation and novel structural features of thymidine kinase, an essential enzyme in Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Thymidine kinase (TK) is a key enzyme in the pyrimidine salvage pathway which catalyzes the transfer of the γ-phosphate of ATP to 2′-deoxythymidine (dThd) forming thymidine monophosphate (dTMP).

Oxygenation inhibits the physiological tissue-protecting mechanism and thereby exacerbates acute inflammatory lung injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005

Nucleoside analog studies indicate mechanistic differences between RNA-editing adenosine deaminases [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2012
Adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADAR1 and ADAR2) are human RNA-editing adenosine deaminases responsible for the conversion of adenosine to inosine at specific locations in cellular RNAs. Since inosine is recognized during translation as guanosine, this often results in the expression of protein sequences different from those encoded in the genome ...
