Ptr1 evolved convergently with RPS2 and Mr5 to mediate recognition of AvrRpt2 in diverse solanaceous species [PDF]
SummaryThePtr1 (Pseudomonas tomato race 1)locus inSolanum lycopersicoidesconfers resistance to strains ofPseudomonas syringaepv. tomato expressing AvrRpt2 andRalstonia pseudosolanacearumexpressing RipBN. Here we describe the identification and phylogenetic analysis of thePtr1gene.

Leishmaniasis is a widespread parasitic disease and is one of the major public health concerns in developing countries. Many drugs have been identified for leishmania as targets, but the potential toxicity and long-term treatment remain the most significant problems in terms of further development.

The leishmaniasis are a group of vector-borne diseases caused by a protozoan parasite from the genus Leishmania. In this study, a series of thiazolopyrimidine derivatives were designed and synthesized as novel antileishmanial agents with LmPTR1 inhibitory activity.

Leishmaniasis is a public health concern, especially in Brazil and India. The drugs available for therapy are old, cause toxicity and have reports of resistance. Therefore, this paper aimed to carry out initial structure-activity relationships (applying molecular docking and dynamic simulations) of arylindole scaffolds against the pteridine reductase ...

Pteridine reductase (PTR1); dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) [PDF]
In vitro studies identified antifolate inhibitors ofLeishmania major Ptr1 that could be used withDhfr inhibitors to help treat parasitic infection. Incultured L. major, five Ptr1-targeting compoundsshowed efficacy against the parasite in combinationwith the Dhfr inhibitor pyrimethamine.

Synthesis, antileishmanial, antimalarial evaluation and molecular docking study of some hydrazine-coupled pyrazole derivatives [PDF]
Pyrazole-bearing compounds are known for their diverse pharmacological effects including potent antileishmanial and antimalarial activities. Herein, some hydrazine-coupled pyrazoles were successfully synthesized and their structures were verified by ...

The Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum effector RipE1 is recognized at the plasma membrane by NbPtr1, the Nicotiana benthamiana homologue of Pseudomonas tomato race 1. [PDF]
In Nicotiana benthamiana, the homologue of Pseudomonas tomato race 1 (NbPtr1) recognizes the conserved plasma membrane‐localized Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum effector RipE1 and triggers immunity. Abstract The bacterial wilt disease caused by soilborne bacteria of the Ralstonia solanacearum species complex (RSSC) threatens important crops worldwide ...

Proteomic analysis of metacyclogenesis in Leishmania infantum wild-type and PTR1 null mutant
AbstractThe parasite Leishmania exhibits a dimorphic life cycle with promastigotes found in the insect vector and amastigotes residing within mammalian macrophages. In the insect, promastigotes undergo metacyclogenesis with two main stages, the procyclic and metacyclic stages.

Inhibition of pteridine reductase 1 (PTR1) expression in Leishmania promastigotes using a full-length antisense construct [PDF]
AbstractLeishmania exhibit many unusual features, one of which is the pteridine metabolic pathway essential for the growth for these parasites. Leishmania have evolved a complex and versatile pteridine salvage network capable of scavenging a wide array of conjugated and unconjugated pteridines. The L.
