Characterisation of an Escherichia coli line that completely lacks ribonucleotide reduction yields insights into the evolution of parasitism and endosymbiosis

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Life requires ribonucleotide reduction for de novo synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides. As ribonucleotide reduction has on occasion been lost in parasites and endosymbionts, which are instead dependent on their host for deoxyribonucleotide synthesis, it ...

Proteomes of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus LBB.B5 Incubated in Milk at Optimal and Low Temperatures. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We identified the proteins synthesized by Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus strain LBB.B5 in laboratory culture medium (MRS) at 37°C and milk at 37 and 4°C.

Challenges of drug resistance in the management of pancreatic cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The current treatment of choice for metastatic pancreatic cancer involves single agent gemcitabine or combination of gemcitabine with capecitabine and erlotinib (tyrosine kinase inhibitor).

Cellular regulation of ribonucleotide reductase in eukaryotes.

open access: yesSeminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 2014
Synthesis of deoxynucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) is essential for both DNA replication and repair and a key step in this process is catalyzed by ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs), which reduce ribonucleotides (rNDPs) to their deoxy forms. Tight regulation of RNR is crucial for maintaining the correct levels of all four dNTPs, which is important for ...

Metal-free class Ie ribonucleotide reductase from pathogens initiates catalysis with a tyrosine-derived dihydroxyphenylalanine radical

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Significance Conversion of ribonucleotides to the 2′-deoxyribonucleotides required for DNA biosynthesis is catalyzed by ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs) via a free-radical mechanism.

Class 1 Histone Deacetylases and Ataxia-Telangiectasia Mutated Kinase Control the Survival of Murine Pancreatic Cancer Cells upon dNTP Depletion

open access: yesCells, 2021
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive disease with a dismal prognosis. Here, we show how an inhibition of de novo dNTP synthesis by the ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) inhibitor hydroxyurea and an inhibition of epigenetic ...

DHS (Trans-4,4’-Dihydroxystilbene) Suppresses DNA Replication and Tumor Growth by Inhibiting RRM2 (Ribonucleotide Reductase Regulatory Subunit M2)

open access: yesOncogene, 2018
DNA replication machinery is responsible for accurate and efficient duplication of the chromosome. Since inhibition of DNA replication can lead to replication fork stalling, resulting in DNA damage and apoptotic death, inhibitors of DNA replication are ...

RRM2 (ribonucleotide reductase M2) [PDF]

open access: yesAtlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology, 2014
Ribonucleotide reductase subunit M2 (RRM2) is located in chromosome-2 p25-p24, converts ribonucleotides to deoxynucleotides which is required for DNA polymerization and repair. It has been shown that RMM2 plays a key role in DNA synthesis, cell growth, and drug resistance of cancer cells. There is accumulating evidence that alteration in the expression

The class III ribonucleotide reductase from Neisseria bacilliformis can utilize thioredoxin as a reductant [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2014
The class III anaerobic ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs) studied to date couple the reduction of ribonucleotides to deoxynucleotides with the oxidation of formate to CO[subscript 2]. Here we report the cloning and heterologous expression of the Neisseria
