An Efficient Chemoenzymatic Process for Preparation of Ribavirin
Ribavirin is an important antiviral drug, which is used for treatment of many diseases. The pilot-scale chemoenzymatic process for synthesis of the active pharmaceutical ingredient Ribavirin was developed with 32% overall yield and more than 99.5% purity.

Oligomeric Symmetry of Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylases
Many enzymes are composed of several identical subunits, which are arranged in a regular fashion and usually comply with some definite symmetry. This symmetry may be approximate or exact and may or may not coincide with the symmetry of crystallographic packing.

Enzymatic ribosylation of fluorescent 8-azapurine derivatives, like 8-azaguanine and 2,6-diamino-8-azapurine, with purine-nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) as a catalyst, leads to N9, N8, and N7-ribosides.

5'-nucleotidases, nucleosides and their distribution in the brain: pathological and therapeutic implications [PDF]
Elements of the nucleoside system (nucleoside levels, 5'-nucleotidases (5'NTs) and other nucleoside metabolic enzymes, nucleoside transporters and nucleoside receptors) are unevenly distributed in the brain, suggesting that nucleosides have region ...

Computer-aided rational design of acyclovir analogs to inhibit purine nucleoside phosphorylase
Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) is one of the major enzymes in the purine salvage pathway. It is responsible for the elevation of deoxyguanosine, and thus considered as the potent target in T-cell lymphoma.

Failure of dideoxynucleosides to inhibit human immunodeficiency virus replication in cultured human macrophages. [PDF]
Primary human monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) were shown to have diminished deoxynucleoside kinase activities compared to T lymphoblasts, and a reduced ability to phosphorylate dideoxynucleosides with anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) activity ...
