Lethal Mutagenesis of Picornaviruses with N-6-Modified Purine Nucleoside Analogues [PDF]
RNA viruses exhibit extraordinarily high mutation rates during genome replication. Nonnatural ribonucleosides that can increase the mutation rate of RNA viruses by acting as ambiguous substrates during replication have been explored as antiviral agents ...

ChemInform Abstract: SYNTHESIS OF TRICYCLIC RIBONUCLEOSIDES
AbstractDas Kaliumsalz des Mercaptoinosins (I) wird mit Dibromalkanen (II) bzw. (V) in Gegenwart von Alkali zu den tricyclischen Verbindungen (III) bzw. (VI) umgesetz Im Falle des Dibrompentans (VII) wird nur ein Bis‐(thioinosyl)‐pentan (VIII) isoli Beim Erhitzen mit alkoholischer Salzsäure wird aus dem Ribonucleosid (III) der Ribofuranosylrest unter ...

Lethal Mutagenesis of Poliovirus Mediated by a Mutagenic Pyrimidine Analogue [PDF]
Lethal mutagenesis is the mechanism of action of ribavirin against poliovirus (PV) and numerous other RNA viruses. However, there is still considerable debate regarding the mechanism of action of ribavirin against a variety of RNA viruses.

Application of ribonucleoside vanadyl complex (RVC) for developing a multifunctional tissue preservative solution. [PDF]
The quality of biological samples greatly affects the accuracy of scientific results. However, RNA in cryopreserved tissues gradually degrades during storage, leading to errors in the results of subsequent experiments.

Deuterated nucleotides as chemical probes of RNA structure: a detailed protocol for the enzymatic synthesis of a complete set of nucleotides specifically deuterated at ribose carbons [PDF]
We describe here a detailed protocol for the synthesis of ribonucleotides specifically deuterated at each ribose carbon atom. We synthesized 20 specifically deuterated ribonucleotides: ATP, CTP, GTP, and UTP, each of which contained one of five ...
