Capture‐SELEX of DNA Aptamers for Highly Selective Binding of Folate
ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 10, 27 May 2026.Using capture‐SELEX, a DNA aptamer with sub‐micromolar affinity for folate was isolated, showing excellent selectivity. Using this aptamer, a light‐up fluorescent biosensor was developed for folate detection. Folate (vitamin B9) is an essential micronutrient for human health, particularly during pregnancy.

The pterin molybdenum cofactors.
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1992 crassa, demonstrated that the inactive apoprotein of nitrate reductase in extracts of the mutant could be reconstituted by the addition of denatured preparations of purified molybdoenzymes from animal, fungal, or bacterial origin. This crucial finding showed that mol- ybdoenzymes contain a dissociable entity fitting the description of a cofactor and ...

Biosynthesis of Pteridines in Insects: A Review
InsectsPteridines are important cofactors for many biological functions of all living organisms, and they were first discovered as pigments of insects, mainly in butterfly wings and the eye and body colors of insects. Most of the information on their structures
