Functional and genetic evidence that nucleoside transport is highly conserved in Leishmania species: Implications for pyrimidine-based chemotherapy [PDF]
Leishmania pyrimidine salvage is replete with opportunities for therapeutic intervention with enzyme inhibitors or antimetabolites. Their uptake into cells depends upon specific transporters; therefore it is essential to establish whether various ...

High‐Throughput Tiling of Essential mRNAs Increases Potency of Antisense Antibiotics
The systematic tiling of essential genes’ mRNA here presented, proposes a valuable tool for the identification of novel PNA sequences with antibiotic potential. The high‐throughput synthetic set up opens the door to investigating thousands of sequences in an economic way and ultimately identifies potent antisense oligonucleotides while also giving room

Nitrogen Substituted Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon As Capable Interstellar Infrared Spectrum Source Considering Astronomical Chemical Evolution Step To Biological Organic Purine And Adenine [PDF]
In order to find out capable chemical evolution step from astronomically created organic in interstellar space to biological organic on the earth, infrared spectrum of nitrogen substituted carbon pentagon-hexagon coupled polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon was analyzed by the density functional theory.

The story of purinergic neurotransmission and regulation is intimately linked to studies of the somatosensory system. Burnstock's contributions to the discovery of ATP as a primary afferent neurotransmitter, as well as a signal of peripheral tissue damage that depolarised sensory neurons initiated a new period of pain research.

A quantitative screen for metabolic enzyme structures reveals patterns of assembly across the yeast metabolic network. [PDF]
Despite the proliferation of proteins that can form filaments or phase-separated condensates, it remains unclear how this behavior is distributed over biological networks. We have found that 60 of the 440 yeast metabolic enzymes robustly form structures,

Divergent prebiotic synthesis of pyrimidine and 8-oxo-purine ribonucleotides
Understanding prebiotic nucleotide synthesis is a long standing challenge thought to be essential to elucidating the origins of life on Earth. Recently, remarkable progress has been made, but to date all proposed syntheses account separately for the ...

Multi‐Omics and ‐Organ Insights into Energy Metabolic Adaptations in Early Sepsis Onset
This study shows that patients at risk of sepsis have a distinct metabolite and lipid signature, including serine and aminoadipic acid, in their serum before clinical diagnosis. A mouse model of sepsis with a compatible serum signature reveals underlying metabolic changes, including mitochondrial adaptation, altered serine‐dependent purine metabolism ...

ABSTRACT Schizophrenia is a neurodevelopmental psychiatric disorder characterized by symptoms of psychosis, thought disorder, and flattened affect. Immune mechanisms are associated with schizophrenia, though the precise nature of this relationship (causal, correlated, consequential) and the mechanisms involved are not fully understood.
