Molecular architecture of pterin deaminase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCIM 3458
Pteridines, 2017 As early as 1974, reports have confirmed the anticancer activity of pterin deaminase isolated from fungi. The enzyme has also been reported in bacteria, fungi and slime mold genera, but the enzyme characterization was effetely done.

Alkane Chain-extended Pterin Through a Pendent Carboxylic Acid Acts as Triple Functioning Fluorophore, 1O2 Sensitizer and Membrane Binder [PDF]
, 2022 In order to develop a new long alkane chain pterin that leaves the pterin core largely unperturbed, we synthesized and photochemically characterized decyl pterin-6-carboxyl ester (CapC) that preserves the pterin amide group.

On the origins of the absorption spectroscopy of pterin and Re(CO)3(pterin)(H2O) aqueous solutions. A combined theoretical and experimental study [PDF]
, 2014 The origins of the absorption spectroscopy of pterin and Re(CO)3(pterin)(H2O) complex as a function of pH is studied using the hybrid functional B3LYP and PBE0 in combination with 6-311++G(d,p) and LanL2TZ(f) basis sets.
