Strained Conformations of Nucleosides in Active Sites of Nucleoside Phosphorylases [PDF]

Biomolecules, 2020
Nucleoside phosphorylases catalyze the reversible phosphorolysis of nucleosides to heterocyclic bases, giving α-d-ribose-1-phosphate or α-d-2-deoxyribose-1-phosphate. These enzymes are involved in salvage pathways of nucleoside biosynthesis. The level of

Bacterial Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylases from Mesophilic and Thermophilic Sources: Characterization of Their Interaction with Natural Nucleosides and Modified Arabinofuranoside Analogues [PDF]

Biomolecules
The enzymatic synthesis of nucleoside derivatives is an important alternative to multi-step chemical methods traditionally used for this purpose. Despite several undeniable advantages of the enzymatic approach, there are a number of factors limiting its ...

The chemoenzymatic synthesis of clofarabine and related 2′-deoxyfluoroarabinosyl nucleosides: the electronic and stereochemical factors determining substrate recognition by E. coli nucleoside phosphorylases [PDF]

Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2014
Two approaches to the synthesis of 2-chloro-9-(2-deoxy-2-fluoro-β-D-arabinofuranosyl)adenine (1, clofarabine) were studied. The first approach consists in the chemical synthesis of 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-α-D-arabinofuranose-1-phosphate (12a, 2FAra-1P) via ...

Tricyclic Nucleobase Analogs and Their Ribosides as Substrates and Inhibitors of Purine-Nucleoside Phosphorylases III. Aminopurine Derivatives [PDF]

Molecules, 2020
Etheno-derivatives of 2-aminopurine, 2-aminopurine riboside, and 7-deazaadenosine (tubercidine) were prepared and purified using standard methods. 2-Aminopurine reacted with aqueous chloroacetaldehyde to give two products, both exhibiting substrate ...

Anion exchange resins in phosphate form as versatile carriers for the reactions catalyzed by nucleoside phosphorylases [PDF]

Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2020
In the present work, we suggested anion exchange resins in the phosphate form as a source of phosphate, one of the substrates of the phosphorolysis of uridine, thymidine, and 1-(β-ᴅ-arabinofuranosyl)uracil (Ara-U) catalyzed by recombinant E. coli uridine

Nucleoside Phosphorylases make N7-xanthosine [PDF]

Nature Communications
Modern, highly evolved nucleoside-processing enzymes are known to exhibit perfect regioselectivity over the glycosylation of purine nucleobases at N9. We herein report an exception to this paradigm.
