Nucleosides 8 [18]: Ribosylation of Fused Quinazolines—Synthesis of New [1,2,4]Triazolo[5,1-b]- and [1,2,4]Triazino[3,2-b]quinazoline Nucleosides of Fluorescence Interest

Journal of Chemistry, 2013
[1,2,4]Triazolo[5,1-b]- and [1,2,4]triazino[3,2-b] quinazolines have been ribosylated by coupling with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofuranose and by using the silylation method, followed by debenzoylation by methanolic sodium methoxide to afford

Nucleobases and corresponding nucleosides display potent antiviral activities against dengue virus possibly through viral lethal mutagenesis. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2018
Dengue virus affects millions of people worldwide each year. To date, there is no drug for the treatment of dengue-associated disease. Nucleosides are effective antivirals and work by inhibiting the accurate replication of the viral genome.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

In Vitro and In Silico Studies of Human Tyrosyl-DNA Phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) Inhibition by Stereoisomeric Forms of Lipophilic Nucleosides: The Role of Carbohydrate Stereochemistry in Ligand-Enzyme Interactions

Molecules, 2022
Inhibition of human DNA repair enzyme tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) by different chiral lipophilic nucleoside derivatives was studied. New Tdp1 inhibitors were found in the series of the studied compounds with IC50 = 2.7–6.7 μM.

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.

Expanding Chemical Space of Nucleic Acid Nanoparticles for Tunable Antiviral‐Like Immunomodulatory Responses and Potent Adjuvant Activity

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We introduce a nucleic acid nanoparticle (NANP) platform designed to be rrecognized by the human innate immune system in a regulated manner. By changing chemical composition while maintaining constant architectural parameters, we identify key determinants of immunorecognition enabling the rational design of NANPs with tunable immune activation profiles
