Teratogenic effect of Disodium 5’ Ribonucleotide (E635) on 15th day chick embryo Gallus gallus (Research note) [PDF]
Disodium 5' ribonucleotide (E635), commonly used as a food additive, may pose teratogenic risks. The study aimed to evaluate the teratogenicity of disodium 5’ ribonucleotide using chick embryos as an in vivo model. Fertilized chicken eggs were inoculated

Analysis of the ex vivo and in vivo antiretroviral activity of gemcitabine. [PDF]
Replication of retroviral and host genomes requires ribonucleotide reductase to convert rNTPs to dNTPs, which are then used as substrates for DNA synthesis.

Stereoselective Synthesis of β-Glycinamide Ribonucleotide
A diastereoselective synthesis of the β-anomer of glycinamide ribonucleotide (β-GAR) has been developed. The synthesis was accomplished in nine steps from D-ribose and occurred in 5% overall yield. The route provided material on the multi-milligram scale.

Ribonucleotide reductase subunit switching in hepatoblastoma drug response and relapse
In hepatoblastoma, the RRM2 subunit of ribonucleotide reductase is associated with disease progression, but in response to chemotherapy, subunit switching favours the less active RRM2B subunit which supports hepatoblastoma cell survival and relapse.

Molecular and physiological consequences of faulty eukaryotic ribonucleotide excision repair
The duplication of the eukaryotic genome is an intricate process that has to be tightly safe‐guarded. One of the most frequently occurring errors during DNA synthesis is the mis‐insertion of a ribonucleotide instead of a deoxyribonucleotide ...

The tumor suppressor p53 is commonly inactivated in human tumors, allowing evasion of p53-dependent apoptosis and tumor progression. The small molecule APR-246 (PRIMA-1Met) can reactive mutant p53 in tumor cells and trigger cell death by apoptosis.

Inhibitors of the Cancer Target Ribonucleotide Reductase, Past and Present
Ribonucleotide reductase (RR) is an essential multi-subunit enzyme found in all living organisms; it catalyzes the rate-limiting step in dNTP synthesis, namely, the conversion of ribonucleoside diphosphates to deoxyribonucleoside diphosphates.

Advances of Ribonucleotide Reductase Inhibitors on Cancer
Ribonucleotide reductase (RR) regulates dNTP production, catalyzing the reduction of ribonucleotide into deoxyribonucleotide diphosphate, which is essential in DNA synthesis and cell proliferation.
