Purine-Furan and Purine-Thiophene Conjugates [PDF]
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.

Protonated pyrimidine-purine-purine triplex [PDF]
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 ...

The interaction of aflatoxins with purines and purine nucleosides [PDF]
From measurements of thermal hyperchromicity and the behaviour of an aflatoxin-DNA mixture on a Sephadex column it was concluded that aflatoxin B(1) is capable of weak binding to single-stranded DNA. The interactions of the aflatoxins (B(1), G(1) and G(2)) with nucleosides result in difference spectra and suggest that the purine bases and the amino ...

Biosensor measurement of purine release from cerebellar cultures and slices [PDF]
We have previously described an action-potential and Ca2+-dependent form of adenosine release in the molecular layer of cerebellar slices. The most likely source of the adenosine is the parallel fibres, the axons of granule cells. Using microelectrode

Metabolic engineering of the purine biosynthetic pathway in Corynebacterium glutamicum results in increased intracellular pool sizes of IMP and hypoxanthine [PDF]
Background: Purine nucleotides exhibit various functions in cellular metabolism. Besides serving as building blocks for nucleic acid synthesis, they participate in signaling pathways and energy metabolism.

Uptake of purines in Plasmodium falciparum-infected human erythrocytes is mostly mediated by the human Equilibrative Nucleoside Transporter and the human Facilitative Nucleobase Transporter [PDF]
<b>Background</b>: Plasmodium parasites are unable to synthesize purines de novo and have to salvage them from the host. Due to this limitation in the parasite, purine transporters have been an area of focus in the search for anti-malarial ...

Evolutionary Trends in RNA Base Selectivity Within the RNase A Superfamily
There is a growing interest in the pharmaceutical industry to design novel tailored drugs for RNA targeting. The vertebrate-specific RNase A superfamily is nowadays one of the best characterized family of enzymes and comprises proteins involved in host ...

Cardiovascular Pharmacology of Purines [PDF]
1. This review focuses on the extracellular actions of ATP and adenosine, and in particular their role in cardiovascular regulation. 2. ATP serves as a co-transmitter within the sympathetic nervous system, and is also released from endothelium and aggregating thrombocytes.
