Pteridines, 1995 Unconjugated pteridines are present in fungi, algae and plants. However, the functions of pteridines in these organisms are not thoroughly investigated. The biosynthesis follows the same steps as were shown for animals and eubacteria.

Control Strategies in Guanine Biocrystallization
Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 18, 27 April 2026.Biological guanine crystals produce spectacular photonic phenomena in animals and hold great promise as new, sustainable optical materials. We review how organisms precisely control the structure, morphologies, and resulting optical properties of these crystals using a set of ingenious ‘design’ strategies, including control of pH, template‐directed ...

Influence of Neopterin on Ciliary Beat Frequency of Human Nasal Epithelial Cells in vitro
Pteridines, 2008 Acute infectious diseases of the respiratory tract are regularly associated with increased concentrations of neopterin in serum and/or urine. Most likely, the pteridine compound is not only a marker of an activated cellular immune system but may exert ...

Pteridines and Lipid Metabolism
Pteridines, 1998 The effect of 9 different pteridines on fatty acid incorporation into phospholipids as well as on cholesterol and phospholipid content was compared in vitro using rat liver homogenate, Krebs-Ringer phosphate buffer containing 0.3 % albumin (pH=7.4 ...

Oil Things Bright and Beautiful? How Hydrocarbon Pollution Impacts Guppy Ornamentation. [PDF]
Ecol EvolSpatial variation in crude oil pollution in Trinidad leads to differing levels of pollutant exposure in connected guppy populations. Male guppy ornamentation is an important sexually selected trait affected by environmental changes. Measuring area and intensity of this ornamentation, we found guppies from anthropogenically polluted habitats had greater

Pteridines, XCVI. Synthesis and Reactions of 6-(1,2,3-Trihydroxypropyl)pteridines
Pteridines, 1990 Various hydropyrano [3.2-g] pteridines (7, 10, 12, 21 , 33) were oxidized to the corresponding 6-(1,2,3- trihydroxypropyl)pteridine derivatives (8,9, 11, 13,32, 34), which are valuable intermediates for the synthesis of new 6-substituted pteridines (15 -
