Potential Mechanisms Connecting Purine Metabolism and Cancer Therapy
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 Unrestricted cell proliferation is a hallmark of cancer. Purines are basic components of nucleotides in cell proliferation, thus impaired purine metabolism is associated with the progression of cancer.

Role of HIV RNA structure in recombination and speciation: romping in purine A, keeps HTLV away [PDF]
Microbes and Infection (2014) 16, 96-103, 2013 Extreme enrichment of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) RNA genome for the purine A parallels the mild purine-loading of the RNAs of most organisms.

Purine-Furan and Purine-Thiophene Conjugates [PDF]
Molbank, 2018 Furyl and thienyl moieties were introduced into a purine structure to elevate its fluorescence properties, while a trityl group was used to increase the amorphous properties of the purine compounds.

Characterization of Guanine Deaminase from Kluyveromyces marxianus and Its Industrial Application to Reduce Guanine Content in Beer [PDF]
FoodsGuanine deaminase (GDA) catalyzes the first step in purine catabolism by converting guanine to xanthine. Despite its significant role in the development of low-purine food, studies on GDA remain limited compared to other metabolic deaminases. To identify

Purine Metabolism Dysfunctions: Experimental Methods of Detection and Diagnostic Potential
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 Purines, such as adenine and guanine, perform several important functions in the cell. They are found in nucleic acids; are structural components of some coenzymes, including NADH and coenzyme A; and have a crucial role in the modulation of energy ...

Targeting purine metabolism in ovarian cancer
Journal of Ovarian Research, 2022 Purine, an abundant substrate in organisms, is a critical raw material for cell proliferation and an important factor for immune regulation. The purine de novo pathway and salvage pathway are tightly regulated by multiple enzymes, and dysfunction in ...

Associations between purine metabolites and clinical symptoms in schizophrenia [PDF]
, 2012 Background: The antioxidant defense system, which is known to be dysregulated in schizophrenia, is closely linked to the dynamics of purine pathway. Thus, alterations in the homeostatic balance in the purine pathway may be involved in the pathophysiology

Protonated pyrimidine-purine-purine triplex [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 1993 We have studied a protonated pyrimidine-purine-purine (Py-Pu-Pu) triplex, which is formed between the d(C)nd(G)n duplex and the d(AG)m oligonucleotide as the third strand and carries the CG*A+ protonated base-triads. We have observed such an intermolecular complex between a plasmid carrying the d(C)18 d(G)18 insert and the d(AG)5 oligonucleotide ...
