Bacterial production has been often estimated from DNA synthesis rates by using tritium-labeled thymidine. Some bacteria species cannot incorporate extracellular thymidine into their DNA, suggesting their biomass production might be overlooked when using

One-Carbon Metabolism in Health and Disease
One-carbon (1C) metabolism, mediated by the folate cofactor, supports multiple physiological processes. These include biosynthesis (purines and thymidine), amino acid homeostasis (glycine, serine, and methionine), epigenetic maintenance, and redox ...

Thymidine Metabolism in Neurospora crassa [PDF]
The metabolism of thymidine by Neurospora crassa was investigated after radioactive labeling experiments showed that thymidine is not specifically incorporated into the DNA of Neurospora; a finding in contrast to the results of labeled thymidine ...

Antibacterial treatment with cotrimoxazol (TxS), a combination of trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole, generates resistance by, among others, acquisition of thymidine auxotrophy associated with mutations in the thymidylate synthase gene thyA, which can ...

Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

From M-tuberculosis thymidine monophosphate kinase (TMPKmt) inhibitors towards mitochondrial thymidine kinase (TK-2) inhibitors [PDF]
Here, we report on the enzyme structure-aided design of a series of substituted 3'- or 5'-thiourea derivatives of beta- and alpha-thymidine, respectively, as thymidine monophosphate kinase inhibitors of M. tuberculosis.

EXOSC10, an essential nuclear RNA exosome‐associated 3′‐5′ exoribonuclease, is inhibited by the anticancer drug 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU), and EXOSC10 depletion increases 5‐FU sensitivity. The colon‐cancer variant EXOSC10S402T, located in a proteolysis motif, is stable and nuclear but nonfunctional in vivo.

Thymidine phosphorylase may be overexpressed in both neoplastic cells and tumor stromal cells in a variety of malignancies. Our study explores thymidine phosphorylase expression in lymph nodes (LNs) from patients with mycosis fungoides (MF) or Sézary ...
