Purine Chemistry in the Early RNA World at the Origins of Life: From RNA and Nucleobases Lesions to Current Key Metabolic Routes. [PDF]

open access: yesChembiochem
In the nascent processes of the beginnings and evolution of life, nucleobases and especially purines, ribonucleos(t)ides and primitive RNAs have been continuously modified. A RNA‐peptide world and key metabolic pathways probably have emerged from the corresponding chemical modifications resulting from adenine deamination, purine alkylation and ...

Deoxyribo‐ and Ribonucleoside H‐Phosphonates [PDF]

open access: greenCurrent Protocols in Nucleic Acid Chemistry, 2001
AbstractMost methods for preparing H‐phosphonate monoesters suffer from variable yields and are often incompatible with common protecting groups used in oligonucleotide synthesis. This unit describes four procedures that consistently give high yields of the desired products.

Reversal of methylmercaptopurine ribonucleoside cytotoxicity by purine ribonucleosides and adenine [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Pharmacology, 1995
6-Methylmercaptopurine ribonucleoside-5'-phosphate (MeSPuRMP), the sole metabolite of 6-methylmercaptopurine ribonucleoside (MeSPuRib), is a strong inhibitor of purine de novo synthesis, inducing depletion of intracellular purine nucleotides and subsequent cell death in several tumor cell lines.

Nucleobase Protection of Deoxyribo‐ and Ribonucleosides [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Protocols in Nucleic Acid Chemistry, 2000
AbstractProtecting groups for the imide/lactam function of thymine/uracil and guanine, respectively, prevent irreversible nucleobase modifications that may occur in the presence of alkylating or condensing reagents that are commonly used in nucleoside protection and oligonucleotide synthesis.

Photoactivatable ribonucleosides mark base-specific RNA-binding sites

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
RNA-protein interactions play critical roles in post-transcriptional gene regulation. Here the authors demonstrate pRBS-ID, an updated MS/MS-based method that combines the benefits of photoactivatable ribonucleosides and the chemical cleavage of RNA.

Two avian Plasmodium species trigger different transcriptional responses on their vector Culex pipiens

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Malaria is a mosquito‐borne disease caused by protozoans of the genus Plasmodium that affects both humans and wildlife. The fitness consequences of infections by avian malaria are well known in birds, however, little information exists on its impact on mosquitoes.

Metabolic Analysis of Nucleosides/Bases in the Urine and Serum of Patients with Alcohol-Associated Liver Disease

open access: yesMetabolites, 2022
Accumulating evidence supports the important role of RNA modifications in liver disease pathogenesis. However, RNA modifications in alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) have not yet been reported.

Learning from the Invaders: What Viruses Teach Us about RNA-Based Regulation in Microbes

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Viruses feature an evolutionary shaped minimal genome that is obligately dependent on the cellular transcription and translation machinery for propagation.

Sustainable Protocol for the Synthesis of 2′,3′-Dideoxynucleoside and 2′,3′-Didehydro-2′,3′-dideoxynucleoside Derivatives

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
An improved protocol for the transformation of ribonucleosides into 2′,3′-dideoxynucleoside and 2′,3′-didehydro-2′,3′-dideoxynucleoside derivatives, including the anti-HIV drugs stavudine (d4T), zalcitabine (ddC) and didanosine (ddI), was established ...
