Highly Efficient Generation of Germline Mutations Using CRISPR/Cas9 in the Speckled Wood Butterfly Pararge aegeria

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
We demonstrate the efficient use of CRISPR/Cas9 to generate germline loss‐of‐function (LOF) mutations in the speckled wood butterfly (Pararge aegeria), an ecological model species. Targeting the yellow‐y gene, we achieved nearly 80% mosaic LOF phenotypes in adults and high germline mutation rates in offspring.

In Silico Identification and In Vitro Evaluation of Natural Inhibitors of Leishmania major Pteridine Reductase I

open access: yesMolecules, 2017
In a continuation of our computational efforts to find new natural inhibitors of a variety of target enzymes from parasites causing neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), we now report on 15 natural products (NPs) that we have identified as inhibitors of ...

Coloration in Argia damselflies of Central Mexico responds to changes in herbaceous vegetation La coloración de caballitos del diablo del género Argia responde a cambios en la cobertura de vegetación herbácea en el Centro de México

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 4, Page 593-603, July 2025.
The increase in urban lands and the vegetation loss implies changes in the colour of the background which in turn could cause changes in the coloration of individuals. We measured changes in body lightness of damselflies through 19 sites in Central Mexico, with a different degree of urbanisation and a different percentage of native vegetation. We found

Localization of Sepiapterin Deaminase and Pteridines In the Granules In Epidermal Cells of the Silkworm, Bombyx mori

open access: yesPteridines, 1990
A new method for assay of sepiapterin deaminase (3.5.4.24) activity by use of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was developed. By this sensitive method the enzyme activity in the cell organelle was assayed.

Photo-reduction of Pteridines [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1956
WHEN a solution of 7-hydroxypteridine1 was spotted on a sheet of Whatman No. 1 filter paper, irradiated with ultra-violet light (principally 254 mµ) for 5 min., and developed (by ascending chromatography) in various solvents, two spots appeared. One of these was identical with the starting material (unirradiated material was used as a control on the ...

Prediction of Fragmentation Pathway of Natural Products, Antibiotics, and Pesticides by ChemFrag

open access: yesJournal of Mass Spectrometry, Volume 60, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Because the manual interpretation of ESI‐MSn fragmentation spectra is time‐consuming and usually requires expert knowledge, automated annotation is often sought. The fragmentation software ChemFrag enables the annotation of MSn spectra by combining a rule‐based fragmentation and a semiempirical quantum chemical approach.

Occurrence and significance of folic acid

open access: yesPteridines, 2018
Folic acid is a naturally occurring pteridine, which was originally isolated from plants. Folic acid (pteroyl-glutamic acid) is composed of pteridine (6-methylptero), p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and glutamic acid.

Development and validation of chromatographic methods to study folate derivatives produced by yeasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Folate, or folic acid, is an important water soluble B vitamin that exists in many different forms. Its presence is necessary for synthesis of DNA and RNA and methylation of homocysteine to methionine.

Dominant Negative Mitf Allele Impacts Melanophore and Xanthophore Development and Reveals Collaborative Interactions With Tfec in Zebrafish Chromatophore Lineages

open access: yesPigment Cell &Melanoma Research, Volume 38, Issue 2, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Ectothermic vertebrates exhibit a diverse array of pigment cell types—chromatophores—that provide valuable opportunities to uncover mechanisms of fate specification and how they evolve. Like melanocytes of mammals, the melanophores of teleosts and other ectotherms depend on basic helix–loop–helix leucine zipper transcription factors encoded by

Urinary pteridines as a discriminator of atherosclerotic risk in patients with diabetes

open access: yesAtherosclerosis Plus, 2021
Background and aims: We have recently proposed urinary pteridine level as a useful biomarker of oxidative stress in a general population. However, the significance of urinary pteridines in patients with diabetes is unknown.
