Reactivity of Damaged Pyrimidines: DNA Cleavage via Hemiaminal Formation at the C4 Positions of the Saturated Thymine of Spore Photoproduct and Dihydrouridine [PDF]
Described here are mechanistic details of the chemical reactivities of two modified/saturated pyrimidine residues that represent naturally occurring forms of DNA damage: 5-thyminyl-5,6-dihydrothymine, commonly referred to as the “spore photoproduct” (

Inhibition of Escherichia coli cytidine deaminase by a phosphapyrimidine nucleoside.
The nature of the interaction between Escherichia coli cytidine deaminase and the phosphapyrimidine nucleoside 1 has been studied kinetically and spectrophotometrically. Compound 1 was designed as a transition-state analog, and is a potent, slow-binding inhibitor of cytidine deaminase (Ashley, G. W., and Bartlett, P. A. (1982) Biochem. Biophys.

Endonuclease V: From Transcriptome Regulator to Chemical Biology Tool
Post‐transcriptional modifications play a pivotal role in regulating the health and physiology of human cells, and adenosine‐to‐inosine (A‐to‐I) editing is one of the most abundant of these modifications. Inosine is read as guanosine by the cellular machinery, and this change impacts both the regulation and genetic code of RNA, in turn effectively ...

The standard of care for patients suffering cancer often includes treatment with nucleoside analogues (NAs). NAs are internalized by cell-specific nucleobase/nucleoside transporters and, after enzymatic activation (often one or more phosphorylation steps)

In Vitro and Clinical Evaluation of Potential Interactions of Bemnifosbuvir with Drug Transporters
Abstract Bemnifosbuvir is a novel oral guanosine nucleotide prodrug candidate for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus infection. Potential drug–drug interactions (DDIs) of bemnifosbuvir as a substrate or perpetrator with regard to ATP‐binding cassette (ABC) and solute carrier (SLC) transporters were evaluated in vitro and in clinical studies ...

Sampling protein motion and solvent effect during ligand binding. [PDF]
An exhaustive description of the molecular recognition mechanism between a ligand and its biological target is of great value because it provides the opportunity for an exogenous control of the related process.

Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU) is linked to gut dysbiosis and elevated serum uric acid/hypoxanthine. Lactobacillus paragasseri LG‐1 alleviates urticaria by degrading these metabolites, inhibiting TLR4‐NF‐κB inflammation, and remodelling gut microbiota.

DNA methyltransferase inhibitors in hematological malignancies and solid tumors
Abstract Epigenetic modifications such as DNA methylation play a fundamental role in oncogenesis and the progression of neoplasms neoplasias. DNA methyltransferase inhibitors (DNMTi) constitute a family of therapeutic agents that impede the methylation at the 5‐position on cytosine nucleotides, thereby modulating the epigenetic regulation of tumor ...
