Sulfite: Cytochrome \u3cem\u3ec\u3c/em\u3e Oxidoreductase from \u3cem\u3eThiobacillus novellus\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]

, 2000
Direct oxidation of sulfite to sulfate occurs in various photo- and chemotrophic sulfur oxidizing microorganisms as the final step in the oxidation of reduced sulfur compounds and is catalyzed by sulfite:cytochrome c oxidoreductase (EC1.8.2.1).

Synthetic Routes to a Library of Novel Methionine Synthase Inhibitors [PDF]

, 2020
Fungal infections are of continuous concern, especially with regard to immunocompromised patients. In an effort to develop new potential anti-fungal agents, we have begun synthesizing a library of potential inhibitors of the fungal Methionine Synthase ...

Structure-based design and synthesis of antiparasitic pyrrolopyrimidines targeting pteridine reductase 1 [PDF]

, 2014
The treatment of Human African Trypanosomiasis remains a major unmet health need in sub-Saharan Africa. Approaches involving new molecular targets are important and pteridine reductase 1 (PTR1), an enzyme that reduces dihydrobiopterin in Trypanosoma spp.

Mycochemical Diversity and Therapeutic Potential of Hymenochaetoid Fungi from Central Asia: Regional and Global Perspectives

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Central Asia harbors a rich yet understudied assemblage of wood‐inhabiting Hymenochaetoid fungi. This review delivers the first comprehensive synthesis of 43 poroid species representing 18 genera documented across montane forests, steppes, and xeric habitats.

Quantification of Live Bacterial Sensing for Chemotaxis and Phagocytosis and of Macropinocytosis

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
Initial immunological defense mechanisms to pathogen invasion rely on innate pathways of chemotaxis and phagocytosis, original to ancient phagocytes. Although chemotaxis has been well-studied in mammalian and model systems using purified chemoattractants

Crystal structure of ricin toxin A chain complexed with a highly potent pterin-based small-molecular inhibitor

Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2023
Ricin toxin A chain (RTA), from Ricinus communis, is a deadly protein that inactivates ribosomes by degrading an adenine residue at position 4324 in 28S rRNA. Recently, we have demonstrated that pterin-7-carboxamides with peptide pendants were potent RTA

No QTcF Prolongation with Sepiapterin: Results From a Thorough QT Study in Healthy Subjects at Therapeutic and Supratherapeutic Doses

The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 66, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Sepiapterin and its major metabolite 6R‐L‐erythro‐5,6,7,8‐tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) bind to distinct variants of phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH), which converts excess phenylalanine to tyrosine, thereby stabilizing, enhancing, and prolonging PAH activity.

Photoinduced cleavage of plasmid DNA in the presence of pterin

Pteridines, 2000
The photoinduced cleavage of plasmid DNA by UV -A light in the presence of pterin was investigated. Electrophoretic analysis of the irradiated plasmid pUCI8 in the presence of pterin showed that UV light of 350 nm induced the transformation of a ...

The compositional and evolutionary logic of metabolism

, 2012
Metabolism displays striking and robust regularities in the forms of modularity and hierarchy, whose composition may be compactly described. This renders metabolic architecture comprehensible as a system, and suggests the order in which layers of that ...

Pigments, Chromatophore Structure, and Gene Expression Underlying Colour Polytypy of a Panamanian Poison Frog

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Colour polytypism represents an example of phenotypic diversification shaped by genetic divergence and ecological pressures. Poison frogs of the genus Oophaga (Dendrobatidae) are highly polytypic in coloration, making them an ideal system for investigating the genetic and physiological basis of colour variation.
