Cerebellar abnormalities in purine nucleoside phosphorylase deficient mice

Neurobiology of Disease, 2012
Inherited defects in purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) cause severe T cell immunodeficiency and progressive neurological dysfunction, yet little is known about the effects of PNP deficiency on the brain.

8‐Aminoguanine Induces Diuresis, Natriuresis, and Glucosuria by Inhibiting Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylase and Reduces Potassium Excretion by Inhibiting Rac1 [PDF]

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background 8‐Aminoguanosine and 8‐aminoguanine are K+‐sparing natriuretics that increase glucose excretion. Most effects of 8‐aminoguanosine are due to its metabolism to 8‐aminoguanine.

Enzymatic Synthesis of Highly Fluorescent 8-Azapurine Ribosides Using a Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylase Reverse Reaction: Variable Ribosylation Sites

Molecules, 2013
Various forms of purine-nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) were used as catalysts of enzymatic ribosylation of selected fluorescent 8-azapurines. It was found that the recombinant calf PNP catalyzes ribosylation of 2,6-diamino-8-azapurine in a phosphate-free

Cloning and expression of recombinant purine nucleoside phosphorylase in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris

Journal of Advanced Biotechnology and Experimental Therapeutics, 2023
Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylase (PNP) is an enzyme involved in biosynthetic pathway of purine nucleosides. Purine nucleoside phosphorylase catalyzes the cleavage of the glycosidic bond of ribo- or deoxyribonucleosides to form the purine base and ...

Investigating the Vital Role of the Identified Abietic Acid from Helianthus annuus L. Calathide Extract against Hyperuricemia via Human Embryonic Kidney 293T Cell Model

Molecules, 2023
To explore the anti-hyperuricemia components in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) calathide extract (SCE), we identified abietic acid (AA) via liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry and found an excellent inhibitor of xanthine oxidase (IC50 = 10.60 µM ...

Some inhibitors of purine nucleoside phosphorylase [PDF]

Biomeditsinskaya Khimiya, 2011
Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) catalyzes reversible phosphorolysis of purine deoxy- and ribonucleosides with formation (d)Rib-1-P and corresponding bases. PNP plays a leading role in the cell metabolism of nucleosides and nucleotides, as well as in maintaining the immune status of an organism.

Thermodynamic reaction control of nucleoside phosphorolysis [PDF]

, 2020
Nucleoside analogs represent a class of important drugs for cancer and antiviral treatments. Nucleoside phosphorylases (NPases) catalyze the phosphorolysis of nucleosides and are widely employed for the synthesis of pentose‐1‐phosphates and nucleoside ...
