Abstract Metabolism plays a crucial role in the growth rate of species. Proteomics serves as a potent tool to explore these metabolic changes. Herein, we investigated the metabolic growth differences in Gymnocypris przewalskii (GP) and Gymnocypris ecklon (GE). After 9 months of culture, the growth rate of GP was slower than that of GE (p < 0.05), while

Analysis of Multiple Isoenzyme Expression Among Twenty-Two Species of Mycoplasma and Acholeplasma [PDF]
Crude extracts of triple-cloned, purified cultures of 22 species of Mycoplasma and Acholeplasma were examined for expression of 21 isozyme systems routinely used to type mammalian cells. Nine previously described enzymes (purine nucleoside phosphorylase,

Triazole-Based Compound as a Candidate To Develop Novel Medicines To Treat Toxoplasmosis [PDF]
This article reports anti-Toxoplasma gondii activity of 3-(thiophen-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione. The compound displayed significant and reproducible antiparasitic effects at nontoxic concentrations for the host cells, with an experimentally determined

Inhibition and Structure of Toxoplasma gondii Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylase
The intracellular pathogen Toxoplasma gondii is a purine auxotroph that relies on purine salvage for proliferation. We have optimized T. gondii purine nucleoside phosphorylase (TgPNP) stability and crystallized TgPNP with phosphate and immucillin-H, a ...

Human adenovirus serotype 5 was used to infect HEK293 fibroblasts at low MOI (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0). Infected cells were interrogated by gas chromatography time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry (GC‐TOF‐MS) at 6, 12, 24, and 36 h post‐infection. The total metabolites were evaluated using an untargeted analysis of primary carbons. The results indicate a decrease

Enzyme kinetics, structural analysis and molecular modeling studies on a series of Schistosoma mansoni PNP inhibitors [PDF]
The enzyme purine nucleoside phosphorylase from Schistosoma mansoni (SmPNP) is an attractive molecular target for the development of novel drugs against schistosomiasis, a neglected tropical disease that affects about 200 million people worldwide. In the

A computational investigation of the reported abiotic phosphorylation of ribose and the subsequent formation of ribonucleosides reveals that the most plausible reaction mechanism involves the protonation of ribose, followed by carbocation formation and an SN2 substitution step.
