Production and quenching of reactive oxygen species by pterin derivatives, an intriguing class of biomolecules [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Pterins, a family of heterocyclic compounds derived from 2-aminopteridin-4(1H)-one, are widespread in living systems and participate in important biological functions, such as metabolic redox processes.

Pteridines CX

open access: yesPteridines, 1999
A series of new 6-substituted 2,4-diaminopteridines (3-23) and pterins (26-43) have been synthesized by nucleophilic displacement reactions at the side chain of 6-bromomethyl-2,4-diaminopteridine (2) and 6- bromomethylpterin (25) using various types of 0-

Pterin-lysine photoadduct: A potential candidate for photoallergy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Photoallergy is a photosensitivity disorder associated with a modified ability of the skin to react to the combined effect of drugs and sunlight. It has been attributed to the covalent conjugation of proteins with a photosensitizer, yielding modified ...

Fluorescence of pterin, 6-formylpterin, 6-carboxypterin and folic acid in aqueous solution: pH effects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Steady-state and time-resolved studies have been performed on four compounds of the pterin family (pterin, 6-carboxypterin, 6-formylpterin and folic acid) in aqueous solution, using the single photon counting technique.

Analysis of Catecholamines and Pterins in Inborn Errors of Monoamine Neurotransmitter Metabolism—From Past to Future

open access: yesCells, 2019
Inborn errors of monoamine neurotransmitter biosynthesis and degradation belong to the rare inborn errors of metabolism. They are caused by monogenic variants in the genes encoding the proteins involved in (1) neurotransmitter biosynthesis (like tyrosine

Pteridines XCVIII. Synthesis and Properties of 1-Methylpterins

open access: yesPteridines, 1993
A series of 1-methyl-pterin derivatives (6-13) have been synthesized by condensation and methylation reactions. The compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, pKa deterimations and UV spectra.

Body coloration and mechanisms of colour production in Archelosauria: the case of deirocheline turtles [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2019
Animal body coloration is a complex trait resulting from the interplay of multiple mechanisms. While many studies address the functions of animal coloration, the mechanisms of colour production still remain unknown in most taxa.

Theoretical Study on the Relative Energies of Anionic Pterin Tautomers

open access: yesPteridines, 2009
Pterins exist as several tautomeric forms and behave as weak acids in aqueous solutions. Therefore, several acidbase equilibria may be present. For several pterin derivatives, the range of the experimental pKa lies in the range 6-8.

Plasma levels of soluble VEGF receptor isoforms, circulating pterins and VEGF system SNPs as prognostic biomarkers in patients with acute coronary syndromes

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2018
Background Development of collateral circulation in coronary artery disease is cardio-protective. A key process in forming new blood vessels is attraction to occluded arteries of monocytes with their subsequent activation as macrophages. In patients from
