Characterisation of multiple substrate-specific (d)ITP/(d)XTPase and modelling of deaminated purine nucleotide metabolism [PDF]
, 2011 To be viable, organisms possess a number of (deoxy)nucleotide phosphohydrolases, which hydrolyze these nucleotides removing them from the active NTP and dNTP pools. Deamination of purine bases can result in accumulation of such nucleotides as ITP, dITP,

Metabolism drives macrophage heterogeneity in the tumor microenvironment
Cell Reports, 2022 Summary: Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are a major cellular component in the tumor microenvironment (TME). However, the relationship between the phenotype and metabolic pattern of TAMs remains poorly understood.

Purine and pyrimidine metabolism [PDF]
Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 1982 The pathways of purine biosynthesis and degradation have been elucidated during the last 30 years; the regulation of the mechanisms involved is not yet fully understood, particularly with respect to quantitative aspects. Research into inborn errors of purine metabolism has provided valuable insights into purine synthesis and salvage pathways. Nutrition

Inborn Errors of Purine Salvage and Catabolism
Metabolites, 2023 Cellular purine nucleotides derive mainly from de novo synthesis or nucleic acid turnover and, only marginally, from dietary intake. They are subjected to catabolism, eventually forming uric acid in humans, while bases and nucleosides may be converted ...

Purine metabolism in Methanococcus vannielii [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1993 Methanococcus vannielii is capable of degrading purines to the extent that each of these purines may serve as the sole nitrogen source for growth. Results presented here demonstrate that purine degradation by M. vannielii is accomplished by a route similar to that described for clostridia.

Purine metabolism in the development of osteoporosis
Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2022 Osteoporosis is a common bone metabolic disease in postmenopausal women, diabetic patients and obese patients and is characterized by an imbalance in bone formation and resorption. Current studies have conducted in-depth research on these groups and revealed their respective pathogenesis and treatment measures.
