Pyrimidine biosynthesis is not an essential function for trypanosoma brucei bloodstream forms [PDF]
<p>Background: African trypanosomes are capable of both pyrimidine biosynthesis and salvage of preformed pyrimidines from the host, but it is unknown whether either process is essential to the parasite.</p> <p>Methodology/Principal ...

Synthesis of Pyrimidines and Condensed Pyrimidines [PDF]
Abstract A new one-step synthesis of pyrimidines and condensed pyrimidines by heating carboxamides or cyclic lactams with formamide in the presence of POCl3 in a sealed tube is described.

Functional and genetic evidence that nucleoside transport is highly conserved in Leishmania species: Implications for pyrimidine-based chemotherapy [PDF]
Leishmania pyrimidine salvage is replete with opportunities for therapeutic intervention with enzyme inhibitors or antimetabolites. Their uptake into cells depends upon specific transporters; therefore it is essential to establish whether various ...

Phosphorylation of purine and pyrimidine nucleosides by isolated rat liver mitochondria [PDF]
Formation of 5'-AMP, 5'-GMP, 5'-CMP and 5'UMP was confirmed in isolated rat liver mitochondria incubated with alpha-ketoglutarate, inorganic phosphate, purine nucleoside and pyrimidine nucleoside. Increased incorporation of 32Pi into ATP, GTP and UTP was

13C n.m.r. investigation on the nitrogen methylation of some azabenzenes [PDF]
The 1H and 13C n.m.r. spectra of N-methylated pyridine, pyridazine, pyrimidine and pyrazine and N,N-dimethylated pyrimidine and pyrazine have been recorded and analysed.

PURINE AND PYRIMIDINE ANTAGONISM IN A PYRIMIDINE-DEFICIENT MUTANT OF NEUROSPORA [PDF]
The present study is concerned with the inhibition of growth of the pyrimidine-deficient Neurospora mutant, No. 1298, by the naturally occurring purine ribonucleotides and ribonucleosides. This experimentally produced strain, unlike the wild type, is unable to synthesize the pyrimidine ribonucleosides on a medium containing inorganic salts ...

Interactions of slow electrons with biomolecules [PDF]
We report on results of computational studies of the interaction of slow electrons with the purine and pyrimidine bases of DNA, as well as with their associated nucleosides and nucleotides.

Pyrimidine-2-carboxamide [PDF]
In the crystal strucuture of the title compound, C(5)H(5)N(3)O, which was obtained upon recrystallization of 2-cyano-pyrimidine from aqueous sodium hydroxide, the amide group is twisted with respect to the aromatic ring by 24.9 (1)°. π-π stacking is observed between partially overlapped rings at a face-to-face separation of 3.439 (6) Å.
